Combat with 5 1st-level human fighters in Pathfinder 2e (Rules Lawyer)
05 1st-level human fighters... they play absolutely the same, right? ;)
(NOTE the errata in my pinned comment)
This is the 2nd of my four-part series, where I look at how Pathfinder 2e solved the "boring, weak fighters" problem that has plagued D&D since its beginnings. This doubles as an overview of the class for PF2e players, and a showcase of what makes it so fun! (This is also a great time showcase it to inform the development of D&D 6e.)
THANKS to Domble Builds (check out his channel!) for the schnazzy animations, and u/SwingRipper for designing the map (made with Dungeon Alchemist)!
