Martials and clerics are FUN in Pathfinder 2e! Plus memorable monsters in our Second Combat
299Playing a martial character or a cleric doesn't have to be boring! Also, we look at PF2e's refreshing approach to monster design. In this next demonstration, the fighter VALEROS and the rogue MERISIEL from our 'First Combat' join the goblin cleric POOG from our 'Character Creation' video, to take on a necromancer and his retinue of undead abominations!
