Pathfinder 2e MORE Combat in 7 Minutes or Less

[@yuribigboss]

These two videos were really helpful to clarify some doubts I had about Pathfinder 2E. Thanks and good luck on your channel.

[@drunemeton]

Another great video! Looking forward to “MORE MORE combat,” “Even MORE combat,” “Even MORE MORE combat,” and everyone’s favorite, “Even MORE extra premium low fat half caff. no whip combat with sprinkles! (Okay maybe a little whip to make it SPICY)”

[@CharlesChaldea]

I love Prepare Aid and Aid. I wonder if there's a feat that would let you do that more than once? I wanna be in there, Aiding every friend I have.. somehow. Also, I think you've succeeded on Aiding us on our learning check. Thanks, pal!

[@KingOogaTonTon]

Maybe one day! It is one of my favourite actions just since it requires a bit of creativity, so I agree with you there!

[@Gabee135]

​@@KingOogaTonTon One thing you missed about Aid is that the critical bonus becomes a +3 if you're master or +4 if you're legendary in whatever skill you're using to Aid, which by that point a crit on a dc 20 is nothing

[@ldalexandrite]

@@Gabee135 oh my it opens up SO MUCH roleplaying potential in combat to be useful for non combat characters! Sounds absolutely amazing

[@bmwd4000]

I've been trying to find simplified videos for quite some time now. I think it's far too easy to forget that new comers, especially to table tops, simply don't know where or how to begin. These two videos have broken down many concepts as if I was five years old and made them digestable. I grasp the concepts of actually playing the game now and feel like I could enjoy it. Thank you so much!

[@Quisspo]

youre a genius man, these videos are the single most understandable game mechanic videos. im gonna show those to my players before we try out a oneshot for pf2e

[@BlueEyesWhitePrivilege]

Excellent flow and pace. Well written and well cinstructed

[@ivyashfox4837]

as someone who is completely new to dnd 5e and pathfinder 2e this is helpful. our GM went over combat briefly but I didn't catch much so this was a nice informational video thank you :)

[@bailbolandollbol]

This was actually extremely helpful

[@sodapop3052]

Holy crap these are the best videos. Highly recommend for players moving from dnd to pf

[@astrid2432]

aid is specially useful, as a +1 or even a +2 if you crit your aid is so important to the game, thanks to the +/-10 rule sadly I barely use it, as I often have other stuff and forgot that it even excist xD still amazing videos

[@yeahhi27]

great video, just one important note. Lesser cover, doesn't give it's bonus to reflex and stealth, only +1 to ac

[@malzdak6077]

Just getting into Pathfinder 2e, these videos help, thanks!

[@snowcatsune194]

Your combat videos were so helpful for a new dm trying out 2e for the first time. Thank you so much!

[@briza_md]

Great videos man, I'll watch all of them before my first upcoming PF2e game :D Also I bet you could make a pretty good BoJack impression

[@eliontheinternet3298]

This is great, I’m so surprised it doesn’t have more views!!

[@themaster408]

First of all your last video honestly made me go OK maybe I will play pathfinder instead of DND again. And yes, your video is great, but let’s be real here, that moment at 50 seconds with the draw more cheese is the most epic moment of any rpg if someone decided to do that

[@simounobrien9096]

You sir need a Raise. This is super duper useful!!!!

[@arcador]

Great video. (Lesser cover provides only 1 AC though, not Reflex or Stealth)

[@gordonfreeman6305]

Love your videos! Super helpful as a noob DM

[@thomasshea308]

this was good because my games turn into a cheese eating skirmish game

[@Skaxarrat]

Why use "drink a potion", such an abstract concept, when you can use "eat cheese"?

[@SigurdBraathen]

Learnful video! Thankful me.

[@bokajon]

Subscribed! Thank you! MORE PLS :-)

[@TheGreatGYROFLUFF]

What happens if you are in greater cover and the creature walks around the cover to stand beside you. Are you no longer in cover from that creature?

[@saint-cetacean]

Correct, cover is changed by both entities involved in the process. Cover is checked live, not just as a result of your Stride- ie you can gain cover without moving if someone drops a giant boulder between you and your enemy between your turn and theirs.

[@flameloude]

Wouldn't your first example of cover be a lesser cover(+1) then you would take the cover action for standard cover?

[@KingOogaTonTon]

Could be, there is some interpretation involved. The written rule is if the "cover is especially light."

[@flameloude]

@@KingOogaTonTon i see

[@mikelsmith6803]

For some reason I was under the impression the Aid action required two actions to prepare and one reaction to use. Am I confusing it with something else or did they change it?

[@KingOogaTonTon]

You might be thinking of "Ready," which pretty much works exactly like that!

[@Jk-zv6tz]

Your voice makes me want to clear my throat constantly.

[@10Boxing]

Great videos!

[@boris_bulletdodger9109]

Positive comment

[@thorjelly]

I love the concept of prepare aid and aid, but spending 1 action and 1 reaction just to give +1 to an ally sounds pretty weak to me. In 5e, you can use the Aid action to give an ally advantage on his next attack roll, which is basically +5. Sure, an action in 5e is more valuable than an action in pathfinder 2e because you get 3, but it still strikes me as pretty weak. You're basically trading potentially attacking with, say, half the chance to hit if it's your second attack, for giving an ally +5% chance to hit. It feels like it'd be pretty rare for the math to check out. Oh, and that's AFTER you have to roll a DC 20 to even give that +1. I'm confused how this is ever worth it.

[@KingOogaTonTon]

The DC20 to Aid is one of the more commonly adjusted rules, since it's difficult at level 1, but basically becomes trivial at higher levels. So I think a lot of people agree with you. We've definitely used it at my table, though. There are situations where it's more valuable to give a 5% bonus to someone else than attack, like if they're trying to shove somebody off a cliff or succeed on a key spell/save, and you are on your 3rd attack anyway.

[@MrTeatime1]

Great videos. I love the simple style and punchy delivery. I have shared this with my players. Please can we have more? However, at kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaXMqaSLi9aSodk, you imply that you can take cover from behind lesser cover to gain (standard) cover. I didn't think that this was the case. I had always played that you can only take cover against a solid object (to get standard cover) or to get greater cover when you are already behind (standard) cover.

[@KingOogaTonTon]

That's a good point, it might be up for interpretation (or just depending on what the "lesser cover" is.) Maybe a thin pole would be okay, but a creature wouldn't be.

[@Tricolossus]

Take cover

[@mad0813]

Damn do I have to learn how to draw to play Pathfinder? Lol

[@kurtisdeakin]

Cheese!!

[@CStevenH]

I'm a little late and I'm sure its said here by someone else but, my man, that white background is rough to have to look at. Darker background would be a big improvement. Great stuff though, just dang the bright background.

[@lordpyralis]

Aid feels like such a downgrade coming from 5e's Help action, an extra die vs a measly +1 that may nor even be a +1 if you fail your roll? Gross
