@doremicom Ahh, well that explains it just fine. I can understand if you play a lot of different game snot everyone can buy all the rulebooks. I’ve just seen a lot of gamers who are a bit more on the too cheap to buy them and are kind of hurting the advantages we have at my FLGS when we ask for something to be brought in. Bad experiences with other players.
@mage189 Usually for our games we have 6 players and 2 rulebooks. Cost is the primary issue. But also because we try so many different systems that we take turns with purchasing new stuff.
Yes but that is only for Sorcerers not for the other classes, all races are even and does not lead to unbalanced campaigns, bad DMs lead to unbalanced campaigns.
It’s actually fairly easy to do a conversion. Basically the basic pathfinder characters are LA +1 effectively, so reduce the LA by one of the template/race you are using in 3.5.
Of course, for the ridiculous ones like mineral warrior or Feral, keep the LA. Problem solved.
Hero Lab and Pathfinder can be found at many local gaming stores, or you can go straight to their respective sources…. links in the description (just added).
Can you do it? Yes. But unless you have a really good reason to do it, and have had more than a little experience with the game system, these one offs typically leads to unbalanced campaigns. For this reason alone, I won’t be revieing that in my Pathfinder tutorial. Pathfinder adds a lot of diversity in characters, you could have 5 human sorcerers and none of them act the same because of bloodline variances.

Looks very nice, but why would a group only play with one rulebook? Everyone has one in our games…

For DnD, can you create a character that is not normally a choice in the player hand book, such as an ork or other unusual races?
