A short video explaining the basics of building a character in the PF2e system on Foundry VTT, using all the built-in tools available.

    Great video, clear and concise and useful and no unnecessary exposition. I'm very new to this. One issue with the AoE template: I noticed that you didn't include the Ratfolk Grenadier in the creatures affected and the player wouldn't know to because it's hidden, so it does not get hit (although it is in the AoE so should). If the GM manually selects the square it is going to give away that there is something there. Is there a way of dealing with this? A macro that automatically selects everything within the template, for example, or some other cunning trick?

    • @knucklehead_studios
      @knucklehead_studios 5 месяцев назад

      Thank you! Glad you're getting value from this video. When you say "If the GM manually selects the square it is going to give away that there is something there", what do you mean? Are you referring to the GM's cursor being visible to the players so if you draw a larger selection box than strictly necessary they might get suspicious? If so, you can disable the visibility of the GM's cursor to players (and even all cursors to everyone) by going to Configure Settings > Open Permission Configuration > Display Mouse Cursor and unticking the relevant boxes. I definitely recommend at least disabling the GM's cursor visibility to players and the GM's drag ruler visibility to players so you can be sneaky without them knowing. Once that's disabled, it shouldn't be possible for the player to tell what tokens are affected as long as you've set the roll mode to "Self Roll" before rolling.

    • @knucklehead_studios
      @knucklehead_studios Год назад

      That's right, there's a premium module you can purchase that automatically maps beautiful artwork onto every monster from the Bestiaries 1-3, and generates really cool tokens for each of them. I have found it extremely worth the price. This is the link for it: foundryvtt.com/packages/pf2e-tokens-bestiaries If you don't want to buy the pack at the moment, all the artwork is also on 2e.aonprd.com/ for free in the entry for each monster, and you can custom create tokens using those.

      It's refreshing to find someone doing tutorials that are so in depth. Also, the fact that you are keeping things at a digestible pace, rather than doing the typical breezing over important information or steps. Instead of shooting for the "optimal" length of video based on whatever the current RUclips algorithm-demons dictate for so many other content creators, you take the time needed to cover the relevant information without all the meme-y nonsense. Really, truly a rare thing on this platform and much appreciated.

    • @knucklehead_studios
      @knucklehead_studios Год назад

      I can't comment on that unfortunately, as I don't use roll20. I have heard you need to purchase the books on roll20 to have access to the player options contained within, unlike Foundry where all released content is immediately available for free. That's a pretty significant positive in my view.

    • @nexushivemind
      @nexushivemind Год назад

      The big difference is being able to just click "level up" and reading: click on this to roll to see how much hp you get, click from this list your spells, click from this list your subrace, etc. You don't need someone saying to you what to look or choose, you don't need to read any book

    Five minutes in and I'm convinced, gonna run Pathfinder instead of dnd. I'd guess I wouldn't do that if we were playing without foundry, but it seems like the system makes it really convenient to GM a game (and the video showed that really well)!

    • @knucklehead_studios
      @knucklehead_studios Год назад

      I believe there is! There should be a macro called "XP" under the "PF2e Macros" compendium that should do that for you. Full disclosure: I haven't used it myself as I calculate and distribute XP in one go at the end of a session.
