![]() And this is only for 15th level+ characters, most of the time only a handful of subclasses will need to keep track of 1 ability with a pool of 1 for the first 7-8 levels (ie the bulk of what any group will play through). P2e on the other hand limits most characters to 3 abilities than can be used 3 times per encounter(each time you use a focus ability it drains one point from the pool) (based on the 10 minute rest refocus ability, which is more in-universe justification than 4e). The issue with how 4e approached the issue was by having most abilities come on and off cool down and give every character a huge list of abilities they can perform. In order to bridge the martial caster divide you have to give the various martial classes more abilities than attack actions and passive bonuses. Honestly I think that 4e was not exactly wrong in moving in this direction (and since 5e basically kept that in at will, per short rest, per long rest, and ritual/long cast time abilities WotC recognizes this too). The biggest change that people are comparing to 4e is the use of the AEDU (at will, per encounter, daily, and utility) system in most classes. (For the record, I have played about 2 sessions of 4e when it came out, and remember some of the issues that pushed me back to 3.5). In order to do this they have moved in a somewhat similar way, however Paizo has done a much better job than WotC in maintaining the flow of the game. ![]() Pathfinder 2e and DnD 4e are both trying to solve the same problems with 3.5/P1e, ie the martial caster disparity, content bloat, and vague/contradictory rules. I do think that in some ways this is accurate, but this is not inherently bad. I've noticed a lot of people comparing the new edition of pathfinder to 4e, usually as a way of disparaging the new direction that Paizo is moving the game in. /r/3d6 - For character creation, advice and sharing (system agnostic)./r/Battlemaps - For your VTT battlemap requirements./r/Tabletop - For your general tabletop gaming shenanigans./r/lfg - Looking For Group, find other players, etc./r/RPG - For general, non-Pathfinder related RPG discussion./r/Starfinder_rpg - For dedicated discussion of Paizo's Science Fantasy system and setting./r/Pathfinder_Kingmaker - To discuss the Owlcat-made computer RPGs./r/Pathfinder2e - For dedicated Second Edition discussion./r/Pathfinder - For Pathfinder Society Organization/Discussion.Other subreddits you might be interested in: Fillable character sheets and intelligent character builders.Some of these tools and resources include the following: We have a Wiki page that includes links for various useful tools and resources, most of which have been provided by the members of this community.
