    RPG Bot Dwarven Ancestry: Dwarven Weapon Familiarity is wrong.

    DWF lowers Martial to Simple & Advanced to Martial like all the other Racial Weapon Familiarity feats.

    I mean a lot of RPGBot guides contain mistakes. It's actually not a new trend, and it likely won't change. Perhaps a disclaimer?
    Also the Tools section could benefit from a separate header, as it seems to have GM guides still listed under Character Creations.

      A lot of guides in general contain mistakes. That's the reality of having things made by fallible humans with their own opinions on whats strong and what isn't. If there should be any disclaimer, it should be one that says to look to multiple guides and form an opinion of your own from there.

      The one about familiars is pretty bad. The section of familiars in the Principia Arcane wizard guide does a much better job.

    2. AnonymousDecember 8, 2019 at 1:36 PM

      The RPGBot guides appear to have been written by someone who has never played 2E and is stuck in very much a 1E mindset.

      They display significant lack of understanding of the new action system and the new character creations system. For example they are filled with recommendations to "dump" stats. That is pretty much not a thing anymore. You have to really go out of your way to have a stat below 10 and it is nearly always Ancestry dependent.

      This is not 1E when "dumping" was better for min maxers because it gained you points back to spend on other stats.

      Delete
    3. AnonymousJanuary 8, 2020 at 10:37 PM

      Note that if you're playing with a GM who allows taking voluntary flaws, you can take two penalties to net one extra boost, so the min-maxers of the world *can* get points back to spend on other stats...

    Oracle Guide

    It's got great breakdowns of each mystery, their strengths, playstyles and a few build tips. While it's short and doesn't touch on ancestries, skill, feat or spell choices in any detail; it's the only oracle guide around and contains solid advice on how to make the most of whichever mystery you choose to play. Hopefully, lumgeon or someone else writes a more comprehensive guide in the future.

      Honestly RPGBOT isn't a good source for PF2e content in my opinion (and a majority of the PF2e community). They don't play the system and are out of touch with the balance of the game or its general aspects
      Often advicing to "dump" stats which isn't a thing in PF2e, or ranking Zealot Barbarian as one of the worst barbarian subclasses because of a lack of offensive abilities, despite Zealot barbs having scaling radiant damage while raging as their first subclass ability

    You know, Zenith, I just want to thank you and all the people who make such guides.

Since then, using the guides (guide to guides to find them) you people, have made us much more experienced in making games interesting and enjoyable. Your guides are real lifesaver for the new players that will be overwhelmed with options at first and because of you I can help my players make their characters play as players want them to play.
