Hi all!
My spouse and I play PF2e as a co-op gm-less game together (or maybe it would be considered a co-op co-gm game?). One of the things we allow is dual classing when we’re playing this way to round out our party of two a bit better.
So here’s the thing, I’m playing a Wild Druid and I can’t for the life of me figure out what other class pairs well with it. It seems like a lot of classes don’t work with Wild Shape too well. I’ve never had this issue with previous class combos, but I’m struggling with druid.
My spouse is playing a champion/sorcerer to give an idea of the party dynamics.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Mythic seems to be very popular for this sort of thing, I need to check it out and I love the tarot card idea! I can definitely see the benefit to the slower pacing allowing you to dig in to the rules.
There are alternatives to Mythic, but what I like is that it can give you plot twists in the form of scene interruptions (where your next scene is a different scene than what you expect. You thought you were sneaking into the castle dungeon, but instead you find yourself in the guard room!) or scene alterations (where the scene is what you thought, but there’s something a little different than what you thought. Maybe you get into that castle dungeon, but there’s a prisoner you didn’t expect or there’s a guard dog on alert instead of just a sleepy guard, etc.). It helps keep things a little random, even if you have an idea of where you want the story to go.
I actually use Mythic when I’m running games with a full party, too. When my players stump me, I can quickly ask Mythic a question or use its descriptions to figure out what comes next.
Ah, very cool! Sounds similar to success with a complication mechanic in other games. I just assumed it was a deck of yes/no cards (along with other randomizers).
