I just hope that eventually we do have enough repeatable scenarios at levels 1-4 to gain 48xp, so 11 scenarios, allowing for 4 early bounties/quests. It is no rush as I have an idea of how long it takes to write such a creation, not to mention adding in the mechanics and then adjusting everything just so, to prepare for release. :D This is my wish for the far future, 4 more repeatable level 1-4 scenarios by the time Pathfinder is on Year 4 or 5. :D

While it absolutely spoils the surprise of each encounter, I encourage you to take the time at the start of each encounter to explain how the mechanics of that encounter work. For example: Level 1’s Area #5 includes enemies with weaknesses and enemies with resistances, and knowing that ahead of time will dramatically change the outcome of the encounter. My own groups was relying heavily on piercing damage against the skeletons and killed the zombie shambler before they learned that it had any weaknesses. Players coming from 5e will find this encounter very information because 5e’s vulnerabilities and resistances work very differently from PF2’s weaknesses and resistances. The instructions below go into detail about how to set up your game in Roll20. I’ll try to describe where to find things in text, but here’s a helpful screenshot which I’ve artfully vandalized using MS Paint. Screenshot of the Roll20 play screen with annotations. Pre-Game Prep If your party makes it this far, they’ve done a great job. This adventure was designed for new players, but it definitely wasn’t easy. I’ve Completed the Beginner Box. Now What? Area #5: This encounter is intended to teach players about weaknesses and resistances. Tell them that before they go into the encounter, and they might put in a little more thought than when they killed the giant rats earlier. You don’t need to tell the players why you explained weaknesses and resistances, but you could encourage them to use the Recall Knowledge action. It’s also important to note that this encounter was designed assuming that the party has a good-aligned cleric in the party who can cast Heal. Using the 3-Action version of Heal both heals living creatures (the party, mostly), and harms undead creatures in the area. Using Heal in this way makes this encounter much more manageable for the party. I got this rule wrong while running the encounter, and it nearly resulted in a TPK (total party kill).The Roll20 module for the Beginner Box has done a lot of setup already to make playing the module as easy as possible. Monsters are statted, tokens are set up, maps are created and layed out. However, there are still buttons to be pressed and some configuration to be done to make your game run smoothly.

Try to replicate it and figure out exactly what you did to cause it. Do you get the same error in the console log? A Getting Started Document. A one-sheet document which explains how to get started with the Beginner Box. Scenes pre-configured with walls, lights, sound, tokens, and hazards already placed to provide GMs the most convenient experience running the adventure. So we were delighted when the fine folks at Paizo sent us PDF versions of the Pathfinder Beginner Box and the Starfinder Beginner Box, the second of which will feature in an upcoming article. Area #3: The way that this room is described might be confusing. The spider only comes out of its spot in the corner if the party touches its webs. I think that this is supposed to teach players that sometimes they can handle encounters by means other than violence. Of course, my players figured out the spider’s behavior and killed it anyway.

For physical copies, I recommend starting with your friendly local game store. If you don’t know where to find your FLGS, I recommend using the Paizo Store Locator. Area #6: My party got here and they were missing 1 hit point between the entire party (they first two encounters went really well for them). I didn’t want the effect of the bowl to go to waste, so I gave them any extra healing as temporary hit points which lasted for 1 hour. My players enjoyed that, and I got to teach them how temporary hit points worked. One of the strengths of the Beginner Box is that it includes a simplified version of the full Pathfinder ruleset. This allows new players to learn the basics of the game without feeling overwhelmed by the complexity of the full rules. However, the simplified rules still provide plenty of depth and complexity, allowing players to experience the full range of Pathfinder gameplay. To begin with, the two rule books are of a good, but not daunting length for readers. The main adventure could be argued to be a little on the short side for more seasoned Pathfinder familiars, but the presentation is both attractive and intuitive with more than enough to get those gaming juices flowing new visitors. The adventure is well-written and provides plenty of opportunities for combat, exploration, and roleplaying. It also includes helpful tips and guidance for the game master, making it easy for even a new GM to run the adventure smoothly.
