Sobbing and crying at the whirling throw change.... my favourite third action....

[@HowItsPlayed]

I feel your pain. But, honestly, it was probably needed.

[@geraldstacy3658]

Thank you for confirming the continued existence of Venomtail Kobolds.

[@travisbaggett2813]

I love all How It's Played videos!

new gnoll ancestry dog: i pray this be closest to the kobolds from delicious in dungeon with them tall dog like creatures and heritage wise they are that worlds version of gnolls to be honest.

[@mm2bee]

Thanks for the review! I'm really excited for my alchemist to see the changes soon. I think he's going to be really happy!

[@AnimatingClass101]

You have such good vibes

[@HowItsPlayed]

Thanks!

NEW ALAHAZRA ART YES

[@squidrecluse2336]

Did they change the Tengu's attribute boost? Of the eight ancestries here it's the only one that didn't have the standard boost/boost/free/flaw setup, and with the new rule allowing you to pick two free boosts in lieu of an ancestry's boost it would be kinda silly for them to still have Dex/free.

[@HowItsPlayed]

Tengu are still Dex/Free.

[@squidrecluse2336]

@@HowItsPlayed dang. That's silly. Thanks for the answer though.

[@jack4socal]

I am new to PF2e, I've never played an, alchemist pre or post remaster, and I find the Alchemist Archetype confusing.... any chance you can do an "Achemist Archetype for Dummies" video?

[@Hespi.]

It is so funny that D&D basically invent Pathfinder 1 with stupid updates, while Paizo gives us awesome content every month.

Shut up and take my like!

[@jacobford1719]

So, if I was to pick up PF2 for the first time, this is what I'd want to get?

[@eamk887]

Well, first you should get Player Core 1 and GM Core, but yes, you should also get this one.

[@mushuable]

I'd argue GM core isn't as useful, but PC1 at least. Also remember everything is on archives of nethys if you want to check the basic rules and see if you like it

[@jacobford1719]

@@eamk887 Thank you, wasn't sure if Player Core 2 was just an updated version of Player Core 1!

[@derskalde4973]

3:40 min I don't think I understand. What do you mean by "draconic exemplar trait"? Also, can you maybe elaborate on the "Don't worship dragons exclusivly"? Are there guidelines?

[@nalt5146]

Kobolds are now attached to any powerful creature, this changes according to their heritage, draconic exemplar would be the dragon the kobold is bound to(its type). Now the draconicblood get that instead

[@derskalde4973]

@@nalt5146 So, the colour?

[@cidlunius1076]

​​@@derskalde4973 After the remaster dragons are bound to magic traditions rather than elemental colors or metals. But you have the right idea.

[@RodjeSan]

no summoner??? wtf paizo

[@delaneyalusa]

Cannot say I am a fan of many changes. HATE what they did with the Paladin (Name not owned by WotC as it is a term used in Three Hearts and Three Lions) I think Paladins have been totally nerfed. Cannot say I like many changes made over all in PF2 and now PF3 (Well 2.1, but it is a new book with changes, so it really is ver 3)
