Dying Automation - Phase 1

[Trenloe]

With today's release of the PFRPG2 ruleset, phase 1 of implementing automation for the dying process has been implemented. There's more to come in future releases, with this release covering the manual rolling of a PC recovery check.

Note: this is also available in the SFRPG2 playtest ruleset.

Cool stuff! It's sure to come up in our next session tomorrow, my character goes down easily

Just of note: there are two feats (that I know of) that reduce the recovery check DC:
Toughness and Mountain's Stoutness

Thanks! I'm going to implement effects in the next phase and plan to handle these via character effects.

I may even move diehard to character effects and remove the "Die at Dying" field. Effects work better with stacking and can more accurately be removed if the feat/feature is removed from the character.

Makes sense! One of my co-players also immediately pointed out a third feat with a similar functionality: Defy Death (Orc Feat). There might be more.

Watched the video, looks very cool! Of course, my wizard would never allow himself to be put in a position where he takes damage, but when I GM, I am sure I will make use of this

This is fantastic, I'm building out my first PF2E game and wrapping my head around all the changes as I move from 1E to the new system

Everytime you all add more of these quality of life changes it makes me more excited to get this game together and throw my group into the meat grinder!

Thanks for all your hard work !
