On a related note to using Pathbuilder on phones, is anyone aware of an iOS alternative?
Pathfinder 2e General Discussion
As a GM:
I host online for friends, so we use digital tools.
- Foundry, hosted on my desktop computer, with these modules:
- Dice So Nice, and several skins.
- Dice Tray, to make rolling single dice easier.
- Pathbuilder Importer mostly for my lazy players.
- Obsidian, for when I'm running homebrew. But with the revamping of Foundry's journal system, I may stop using this.
- Discord for game audio.
As a player:
I have a tablet PC with a pen. I take notes on Rnote (free, open source.) I used to use OneNote which was great because I could search my handwriting, but I stopped using Windows.
Historically, I always used physical dice because I was playing in-person. I did my PF1e character sheets manually by writing on the PDF in OneNote, but for PF2e I do enjoy Pathbuilder to help me plan it out. For actual play, I build my character sheet in Foundry (even if the GM isn't using it for the game) just to make everything easy for me to find.
Another Foundry + A/V on discord.
I also use discord for game related threads.
I've recently discovered a similar program called Guilded, which seems to have all the same important creatures of discord, but better organized (and a larger file share limit). We have not moved over, but I've been spinning up and organizing a server there, just in case Discord craps the bed like Reddit did.
