The design team has posted two more FAQs related to Ultimate Wilderness. First, we have a fix for a feat: Animal Ferocity: The ferocity prerequisite of animal ferocity seems to do what the feat does and more? How should it work? Animal Ferocity lets you take a full attack while disabled, but all attacks are at […] Read more

Paizo continues the process of rebuilding the Shifter class, and we have two updates to the base class plus an update to the Oozemorph shifter archetype. First up, we have some updates to the Shifter major forms: Shifter Major Forms: The shifter major forms are supposed to tell me everything I need aside from the […] Read more

Paizo’s development team has posted a pair of FAQs for the Shifter class from Ultimate Wilderness: Shifter Claws: Shifter claws can bypass a wide variety of damage resistances, even epic, but not magic. Is that intentional? No, at 3rd level, the shifter’s claws should also count as magic.   Shifter Wild Shape: If my 4th […] Read more

Not too long ago, Pathfinder Society released an update to the organized play campaign’s animal companion and familiar guidance and rules. That has recently made it onto the FAQ page.
