Stress can also be healed in a number of waysġ: confirming a critical hit or maxing out the dice of a given ability (Example, a healing spell rolling a perfect 8 on any of the D8s) will heal 1 stress.ģ: similar to caring for a partner using the heal skill. On average, players have a stress pool between 10 and 20 (not sure about particular numbers)ġ: Some monsters have abilities specifically designed to deal stress damage.Ģ: When a monster confirms a critical hit against the character they make a will save or take 1 stress damage.ģ: some other abilities or circumstances can increase stress. Players can take stress damage from multiple sources. Stress: Characters have a secondary hit point pool of 'Stress'. Going all in on berserking and getting as many Brute and Berserker talents as they can, also grab duelist and bloody slasher if you want some bleeds.įalconer: Scholar with Martial Training with the Barrage sphere, and specializes in combining Scouting and deadly barrages of arrows together. Total healer that heals all the things.Īrbalest: Scholar with Martial Training with the Sniper Sphere, making singular, deadly called shots at people and going around with a big bow and a breastplate. Probably taking the Light and Healing domains. But if there's an archetype for alchemist that replaces Mutagen then take it. Scholar has the advantage of flash bangs being at will meaning you can toss them at everything you don't like, whilst the Alchemist's titular ability and higher bab and hit points mean a lot. Plague Doctor: Scholar, Possibly of the Doctor Archetype, or the Alchemist. I'm sure there are probably better options for the fluff but in terms of its role as damage dealer that uses attacks for everything it's useful. Highwayman: Conscript with the Scout and Sneak Attack specialization and the Guarded Shooter drawback on dual wielding (also the Duelist Sphere for open vein and Fencing to get more sneak attacks).

Also you could grab Sphere Paladin if you don't want vancian casting. I put this in 3rd party because it's going to use a lot of spheres of power stuff.Ĭrusader: Dirt Spattered Angel Paladin wielding full plate and using a Great-sword.

Thought I'd start an admittedly silly thread idea, converting characters and mechanics from the game Darkest Dungeon to pathfinder.
