I would say that while Úlfr has traveled widely in the past, it has been a couple of years since he's gone so far afield.
I should ask how long. Jasir is currently 26. Much of his wandering has occurred in the last 4-5 years. Happy to approach the guide exchanges from a different direction, too.

Úlfr is actually only 24, so I literally meant 2 years lol

@WanderOne
I saw your character sheet on https://staging.gamersplane.com/characters/custom/33156/

I like the style of this one better. Where did you get it?
Can you send me your sheet code so I can update mine?
Please!

Yeah, that is about the same. The character changes for the last week really have been just how many spells to mark off casted. Which was what I was doing when the character vanished.

She has casted goodberry, mage armor, & grease so far today.

Smiles. The above lets you see all that lovely math & such I put into the character. Noticed I need a spot for description of spell casted and my general spell to hit & save. Both are missing from the sheet created.

I self-create my character sheets that aren't standard. Azote is an example of such. I haven't seen sheets that I like otherwise. As far as code, I would look at what you see to copy. You can be sure that in many cases I have copied code to learn it.

I tend to edit and slightly change stuff myself.
Having something to start with is always nicer than trying to make something from scratch.

You know you were previously standing right beside him? You just moved next to Varin and Jasir.[/ooc]
No, I didn’t realize that. Sorry about that, my bad.

@WhiteDwarf Change anything up? Just ready the AoO?
Jun 24, 2025 12:33 pm
Yes please, back where I was and will hold for an AoO if he tries to move. Sorry again, I’m sure I just got myself turned around with the tokens. Appreciate your patience. :)

Being new to PF1 is there anything I can get that allows me to Grapple or stop them when I use an AoO?

Something like the Sentinel from 5e

From what I can tell, at Level 3 you cannot manage the Feat chain you would need to "grapple" as an AOO. (Unless you are a certain kind of monk getting free Style feats but this game doesn't have those.)

You can't use the "Combat Maneuver--Grapple" on someone in PF1E in place of an AOO without taking a chain of Feats to allow it. The only Combat Maneuvers that CAN be done in place of a melee attack are specifically Disarm, Sunder, and Trip until you take Feats to expand the list.


I would argue Trip Combat Manuever (in place of a melee attack AOO) is the best cheapest-in-build-costs low-level option to 'stop movement.' BUT there's a price, you are going to take an AOO from your target first, for even trying it, unless you took the "Improved Trip" Feat.


EDIT: Ninja'd by GM. Yes, Combat Reflexes Feat + Stand Still = you can make an AOO that stops movement....and THAT does not involve Grapple related Feats or Trip related Feats!



EDIT #2: I hope I contributed to the discussion usefully, rather than stepping on any toes! Obviously the GM's (your) reply was spot-on.

Ok, let me know if I am missing it but I don't think the Defender class lets you pick feats at all.
It gets bonus feats and Defender Abilities but I don't see any features that let you just pick feats.

All pathfinder PC characters gain feats at 1st level, 4th level and every four levels afterwards.

Ah. That isn't Feat Advancement. That is Stat Advancement.
Jun 24, 2025 9:02 pm
Feats every odd level, per Table in the link.
Jun 24, 2025 9:08 pm
I should have 2 extra Feats right now?

Any suggestions?

I might get Combat Reflexes.
