Yeah, it's pretty hard to disarm a Goblin of their Jaw attack. You can knock out their teeth, but they go by Shark Teeth rules. It is lore that Goblins constantly lose and regrow their teeth like sharks.
Is that really in the lore?
@@COCCOMOJOE I don't know, but now it is.
Do they use teeth as money?
One great thing about Goblin Song, it doesn't have the attack trait so doesn't increase MAP. Pretty decent use of an open action.
MAP?
@@questmarq7901 Multiple Attack Penalty
@@Lechteron yeah since its a skill check and doesnt do damage, i guess it makes sense. Although if it was a spell, it would have MAP, right?
@@questmarq7901 Trip, Shove, Disarm, etc. have the attack trait so doing them increases (and are affected by) MAP. Most, probably all, spells that have attack rolls have the attack trait. The thing that matters is the trait.
I tried putting together an oozemorph unbreakable bouncy goblin - I'm not sure but I feel like I created an unkillable gooey monster... he was also a wizard 🙃
That is terrible, awful, and should be burned.
I love it.
One word. Awesome!!!!!
@7:15 For anyone who doesn't know, there's an actual song that Paizo published way back in the Rise of the Runelords AP:
Goblins chew and Goblins bite.
Goblins cut and Goblins fight.
Stab the dog and cut the horse,
Goblins eat and take by force!
Goblins race and Goblins jump
Goblins slash and Goblins bump.
Burn the skin and mash the head,
Goblins here and you be dead!
Chase the baby, catch the pup.
Bonk the head to shut it up.
Bones be cracked, flesh be stewed,
We be Goblins! You be food!
Obviously, these are Charismatic and peaceful people and should be allowed in every settlement without issue/be a core ancestry the same as elves and humans.
@@Deathwhisper13thgen hey, they're reformed now haha
@@Deathwhisper13thgen every champion has a gobbo waifu being carried around. It is the Way.
@@SeekingKnight ah a Baalbuddy enjoyer in the wild
Bouncy Goblin is so good for a Swashbuckler. +2 to Tumble Through, and they can get Panache through a tumble? Excellent.
Also, I think you're underselling Reckless Abandon... I don't think it's for one save. It sounds like you succeed ALL SAVES during the turn you use it:
" For the remainder of your turn, if you roll a failure or critical failure on a saving throw against a harmful effect, you get a success instead."
Is that a Swashbuckler feat?
@@lincr.1988 It's not a Swashbuckler feat, it just benefits Swashbucklers given every Swashbuckler can take the Tumble Through action and use that to regain their Panache. An extra +2 is useful for your chances to succeed.
@@Mewzard That's cool! Is it fun to play Swashbuckler?
@@lincr.1988 It's very much a class of doing cool things. Regaining Panache can be done via Tumbling Through, through your particular style's method, or just doing something the DM feels is daring enough, like swinging across a chandelier or sliding down drapery.
The various styles you can pick are interesting too. My favorite is Wit, because you gain the Bon Mot skill feat and can use it to regain Panache. It basically lets you do Insult Swordfighting from Monkey Island, which is just a delight.
@@Mewzard That sounds fun indeed haha and something I wanna know about Bon Mot.. does it have a cooldown? Cuz Demoralizing does
My wife is playing a goblin raised by orcs with the Barbarian Giant Instinct. She carries around multiple "great" weapons that are so tall, they leave noticeable grooves in the ground everywhere she walks.
Probably a meme build, but still a lot of fun.
Haven't played a goblin yet, but Bouncy & Reckless Abandon is the exact kind of nonsense I live for when I'm not DMing!
I'm doing an Unbreakable Rough Rider Animal Instinct Barbarian Farmhand bull rider who grows bull horns.
Because what's better than a goblin cowgirl in a southern drawl going "YEEEEEEEE HAW!" to start the rage!
I have a player that's a goblin rogue with the martial school background. Their whole goal is to get shot out of a cannon. And they plan on taking the unbreakable-er feat. So I'm assuming that the vertical bouncing works as horizontal aaaaand they've unlocked fast travel
That Minus 1 to Will Saves with Goblin Song is how my bard got a Crit success that stunned a manticore, making it take massive fall damage.
Goblin Song is very good to intimidate enemies, as both performance and intimidation are Charisma based skills!
It doesn't intimidate. It's a specific action that only grants a small penalty to perception (usually doesn't matter in battle, and not good for stealth since singing gives away your position.) and will saves (useful, but usually not worth an action just for the chance to give a -1).
The demoralize action is good, but in no way synergizes with Goblin Song.
Having a high charisma does not justify spending a feat on such a bad effect, even if it is also charisma based (and not even on the same skill).
It is flavourful and worth taking for the flavour if you aren't optimizing.
30:11 - A 2 second summary of the whole video
I've created a build I'd love to play soon: A Hard Tailed Goblin is the overseer of a mining operation (high Str and Cha) when they stumble upon an ancient tomb and hear a warning voice. The goblin ignores it, off course, and becomes cursed with the Ancestors Oracle Curse. He can use his Charisma for spells and his tail for attacks and Skills (such as Trip), so he doesn't even need any weapons, allowing for a lot of flavour (or give him a whip for ranged Trip). He's still going to die as his defenses would be too low, but that's a goblin for ya.
I've only played Goblin so far and I love it. Goblin Bards are just to much fun for ne
My one player is playing a medic archtype churegon alchemist goblin and goblin scuttle with doctor's visits is going to be so nuts
I want to make a charhide goblin flame oracle. All the fire!
So much fun is packed into this ancestry! Thanks for the great overview!
Great video! Super informative. I've been wanting to try Pathfinder for a while and when I do finally get a chance to I definitely wanna play a goblin so this has been super helpful in learning a bit more about the race in Pathfinder 2e.
Irongut goblins should be able to store 1 bulk items in their gut that they can wretch up to use in 1 action
My first PF character was a charhide goblin Alchemist called Tig-Tog. He came from a family of goblins that had a natural talent for making things go boom and burn.(Them with it usually as well). He was passed the knowledge of the boom booms and when he was of age to carry on the family tradition he, being the intellectual of the family, suggested the radical ideas of using a fuse or (gasp) throwing smaller versions. The family was outraged, and banished him for suggesting to break the great family tradition. Now on his own to survive initially, it turns out his family knowledge came handy for him as a bartender. In turn he found that alcohol can be useful in making boom booms.
Thank you for your energy level and positive presentation. My playing my first PF2 game Sunday- can’t wait
Recently I finished my first Pathfinder 2e game, my character was a goblin monk that was based on a character of mine frome a d&d game a while ago, in short his name was "Gargen, sharp biter, bestest gob nom'er ever!" I put all of my feats into my sharp teeth and we explained that "Gargen not good guy, Gargen fearsome warlord" but he just sucked at being evil and was too dumb to realize that the love that people gave him wasn't out of fear.
Best quote: "Of course Gargen nice to man slave, man slave not work hard if not happy and Gargen need good work had so Gargen be noce." -gargen explaining why he's nice to the servants of the local king.
I play a goblin rogue named Gebmeznok. He's actually the tank for our group right now, he's an iron gut with very sneaky. He's been great to play so far. Can't wait for the rona to be gone so he can get back to the adventures
I don't know why but when seeing the Irongut Goblin I immediately imagined him being poisoned by something, then sucking the poison out of the body part as a reaction and swallowing it (why not spit it out? Cause it's tasty!), getting the +2 bonus that way.
my first character I made in PF2E was a Goblin Rogue called Stabbin Ankle-Shanker (hyphen is just you help pronunciation)
GOBLINS ARE MY FAVORITE ANCESTRY. Omg.
Love that they made them a core ancestry.
I tend to play off-beat goblins that don't fit within the stereotype.
Either super-brave and heroic or intelligent and curious to a fault.
My favorite so far is an inventor and master engineer.
Also, fun thing for Homebrew settings and Lamashtu's Chosen.
Lamashtu's Chosen can potentially be used with DM permissions.
As long as you can give them any sort of reasoning behind the mutation and provided they're up for it.
Pathfinder Community: "Hah, look at the Goblins, they're so comically mischievous!"
Me, after watching Goblin Slayer: "PRAISE LAMASHTU!!"
Been waiting all day
Freeze it is athletics because it’s all about breath control. Need that cardio, bro.
Y'know, this made me laugh harder than it should've. Thank you. 😂(And a legit good explanation too)
I’m currently building a Braggart Swashbuckler using the Unbreakable Goblin, for the increased hit points for melee and I plan on taking bouncy-goblin and roll with it feats. I plan on playing it where he gets hit, Rolls With It, then intimidates to Demoralize the enemy
“YOU CANT KILL _____ THE UNBREAKABLE” (I still don’t have a name)
23:28 I guess it's Athletics because he's literally exerting his lungs to breathe that cold puff...
It is applying a condition instead of damage, so it is a maneuver. Athletics is for maneuvers
There's nothing about being among the chosen of lamashtu that makes you evil, or implies that you worship her
I actually had a character concept from pathfinder 1e about a goblin that jumps off a bat mount named gwono. I'm glad to see it's possible to make it work
clickity clackity i roll to ATTACKITY .. fav goblin styx, steals the shiny sap from elf tree .. at the end of the video you asked what we like or hate about goblins and for the most part i like them however i like the more proportional goblins (or even the labrynth styled ones) over the walking chiuachua type they seem to make for pathfinder
Got a Human Alchemist with Adopted Ancestry: Goblins. Lots of fun RP confusing people and burning down things. BURN IT! + Demolition charge for dramatic entrances
...There's nothing in "Goblin Song" that says you can't have six goblins with the feat ganging up on one target to stack the effect.
My current game I'm trying to build towards a fire proof goblin alchemist
My 2e Goblin champion is a wolf mounted unbreakable goblin with a bunch of the bouncy feats
Great summary! Definitely a fun heritage to play. Any chance you can explore some Goblin Gunslinger builds?
My friends goblin Bard uses Goblin Song all the time. A fun ancestry to play.
29:08 it is a more European reference, but this goblin obviously fell into a cauldron full of gummy bear juice as a baby. So it is not fat, it only has strong bones.
I have a Goblin Toad Barbarian with the Unbreakable Heritage. Nothing like a goblin that hops around biting people and using tongue. :p
I'm playing an unbreakable goblin monk that I plan on making a Jalmeri Heavenseeker (playing the AoE AP). If he gets to level 13-16 it's going to be so fun to combine Skyseeker with Unbreakable-er and Bouncy Goblin.
Good video and luck 🎉
I love playing Fumbus the Bomber in Pathfinder Society as a pre-gen character.
I am giving Roll with it to my goblins encounter for sure. 2 out of 4 of my player has AoO. They'll have fun with this for sure!
I knew it! Gummi bears were just unbreakable goblins!
Another benefit of roll with it is the enemy now has to run after you and burn an action to follow
I feel like you wouldn't know true terror until faced with an Unbreakable Goblin Bomber Alchemist...
Lamashtu's follower alignment is restricted to CE only, but whether or not the restriction applies all worshipers or just those like clerics and champions is debatable. I think there's definitely a joyless segment of the PF community who have an irrational hatred for goblins being a core ancestry.
14:50 the reason diplomacy is their is for someone trying to reason with you and you just want to fight, and deception is the same but I also think their are rogue feats that use deception for attacks
Goblins: for when you absolutely have to re-enact a Tom and Jerry episode in your TTRPG.
Goblins seem to have amazing flavor
I’m so sad that they nerfed Roll With It so hard from PF1, where you could always choose the direction of the hit and it replaces the damage dealt with movement (to a max of 30). Getting hit straight up as my goblin witch with at-will flight was dumb
16:15 Praise Lamashtu! I don't know what came first, this feat or Nok-Nok from PF:K. Either way, it's clear to me that the evil descriptor can be deceiving, or at least misleading.
After listening to the Jig the Goblin series by Jim C. Hines. I would love to create a tabletop version to play.
Now tell me about how to make goku from dragonball as a tailed goblin monk
Gobbos all good. Short races unite!!!!!
I think its athletics because your basically rubbing against them to make em cold with your icy cold body....also hungry goblin handwraps of mighty blows and that rune that gives bleed maybe?
Okay I did NOT realize how much support there is for monkey (tail) goblins. Gonna have to cook up a gymnast swashbuckler using this.
I started a new campaign recently. Our goblin (and ratfolk) died before level 2 lol
Regarding Goblin Song - think of at equal to a Witch's unlimited cackle. Demoralize is against a target's Will DC - so does it affect this too? Also, noticed that Kneecap does not have a duration - I think this means that the duration is 10 minutes (which is the default for things that don't have durations?)? Now a successful Kneecap makes monsters totally kite-able!
I HATE how little art for goblins is presented. WE NEED MOAR
Really want to try and get my goblin doctor to be able to set himself on fire. Risky Surgery while aflame for the win!
Gobbos be da best!
I like to use goblin song during boffer combat
I wanna take freeze it, can I take it if I'm not a goblin?
Is the tailed goblin an official pathfinder 2e heritage or a homebrewed one? I’m starting a new campaign and this heritage seems awesome for my concept but my GM says it’s not official
I'm pretty sure it's in the core rule book
31:50 so this means you could swim in lava for one turn and get out only by getting 12 damage if you're a firehazard goblin? Count me in!
(for lava damage I don't know how high it actually is, I'm considering the one given in dnd which is 20d6 damage that's 3.3 pathfinder fireballs)
I BE GOBLIN!
Specifically, Razortooth Goblin Rogue, with a hand crossbow in my free hand, and Tumble Behind ;-)
Where is that tailed and treedweller goblin at in the book?
Are you going to do lizard folk
I need to make a goblin monk with the Tail Spin feat. His name will be Tripataka.
… that’s “Trip Attacker” for those of you who don’t speak Bostonian.
Today I realized I like goblins because of Oscar the Grouch
Goblin spit + flurry of blows?!
Does... does Kneecap not have a duration? Is it permanent?
I love goblins they are my favorite. Remember my goblin brethren “GO FOR THE KNEES”
I had an goblin Alchemist named achkmed who love throwing bombs, he claimed to be the smartest goblin ever born
19:16 Does Kneecap count towards the Multiple Attack Penalty?
no
You use action to Hide in front of someone, Succeed Stealth roll vs Perception DC and You are hidden. You only need Legendary Sneak or Very Very Sneaky Goblin. When it comes to the questions how you can hide in front of someone is good question, they can just use SEEK action to see you 😏 by RAW Very Very Sneaky allows you to hide in front of someone.
Based on what logic is different question. Maybe your eyes saw someone walking by and our Goblin used that moment to take Sneak Action to become hidden, Pickpocketed and Sneaked away using three actions? Very Very Sneaky reminds me of Kuroko no Basket Manga/Anime 👍 check it up and you get the reference.
Here is the basic idea how progression would go in PF2e for noobs like me:
Level 1 Goblin Feat: Very Sneaky -> You Sneak 5ft farther up to your speed (Swift Sneak) and if you start and end your turn behind cover you don't become observed if you end sneak in open.
Level 7 Skill Feat: Swift Sneak requires you to be Master in Stealth -> Allows you to sneak up to your speed (You no longer gain the +5 sneak benefit from Very Sneaky)
Level 13 Goblin Feat: Very Very Sneaky -> You can sneak up to your speed (Swift Sneak) and you can both Hide and Sneak in open.
Level 15 Skill Feat: Legendary Sneak requires you to be Legendary in Stealth and have Skill Feat: Swift Sneak -> Allows you to sneak up to your speed and you can both hide and sneak in open (just like Very Very Sneaky) and if you are doing any other Exploration Activity you also Avoid Notice.
If GM allows you to take downtime later to Retrain Skill Feats you can chance Swift Sneak at level 13 to something else. Allows meaning there is possibility you are middle of world ending doom and can't do so right away or GM just refuses for you to do so. You can also at level 15 Retrain
If you take Legendary Sneak you make both Very Sneaky and Very Very Sneaky obsolete and by rules you can't Retrain Ancestry Feats 😓 unless DM makes an exception.
The dream is to have access to Observant Explorer feat as Rogue reaching lvl 15 so you can literally Avoid Notice while searching hidden traps and creatures on top of doing any exploration activity like Scouting better known as Keeping Watch for that sweet +1 bonus to initiative. Or when you walk in city you know if you are being followed 😅
Wait, Kneecap does not mention a duration for the Speed penalty. How long does it last? How can a creature remove that penalty? It does not say anything about that. I am scared.
Y'know, I didn't noticed that, but unfortunately, they have addressed this. A "permanent" speed penalty would've been BRUTAL lol
"PFS Note Per design team clarification, the Speed penalty inflicted by the Kneecap feat has a duration of 1 round."
Also looks Stackable. Kick him twice, runaway.
Ra-ra-reee, kick'em in the knee.
Ra-ra-rass, kick'em in the other knee!
I'm a kobold guy but goblins are a good runner up.
Someone says goblin and I’m here
What I like about goblins: they're fun, the silly kind of fun, almost as much as kobolds (my favorite).
What I DON'T like about goblins: Pathfinder's looks for them - they look like were-Stewie Griffin. Seriously, the less human-like a race is, the uglier the Paizo artists draw it: tengus look like they just got out of an accident, kobolds look like a cross between a very ugly frog and a demonically possessed cake, and so on and so forth.
Would it hurt them to draw the goblins a bit more like their World of Warcraft brethren? (I might be biased, since I used to play a female goblin fighter in WoW, and, well... she was three feet of hotness)
Btut Goblins are not meant to be attractive for humans, I mean the human picture in the books would probably look ugly for a goblin. Hotness is not an objective term in any sense
@@tamadesthi156 maybe. Well, at least this time they made ugliness universal... in Pathfinder 1's racial compendium the males of most races looked ugly as quck, while the females looked extra hot. This time, if you're not human or demihuman you're quckin' ugly, period.
@@alarkhar why would a individual of another species should look hot to you(a human)?
@@tamadesthi156 Look it the other way around... Half orcs, half elves, half dragons, half demons, half angels, half a lot of other things - it's pretty obvious that apparently a high percentage of the fantasy world finds humans hot. It's only fair that we get the other way around too...
That said, I'd content myself with "cute"... I mean, PF1 kobolds were cute in a silly lizlet sorta way, and SF skittermanders are DEFINITELY cute. Why shouldn't we be allowed to get cute other races?
Or, at least, not "fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down" kinda ugly...
@@alarkhar first off all for me not every non human race looks like they"fell off the ugly tree" I mean gnomes are kinda cute, halfligns are basically little humans with hairy feet. Elves are attractive for most humans and I think paizo did a good job at catching this aethereal beauty of elfs in their artwork. I also wouldn't they that all Orcs are so unattractive as I also would say that not all humans are attractive.
In fact I love that there are humans in the book that are not an chlichèd picture of an attractive superhero.
Orcs have a rough, wild something to them which would make the mattractive to somebody. Attractiveness is more then just the looks, it can be all sort of things.(also don't forget there are people like furries in our world) To your example with half-elves and half-orcs: Elves in an elven community would be surrounded by elvish perfection everyday, not wonder they would be fascinated and potientially fell in love with a human. For Half-Orcs it is the other way around, why not a human who lust for the wilderness of an orc. Oh andthey can also be conceived due to rape keep that in mind. To the half-demon, -dragon -what ever thing: they are not exclusivly to humans they make offspring with all kind of mortal races, and I mean why not, if you would live for ever you would also tryout new stuff. Why should every race be cute for you? I find most goblins cute in there own scary way. Taste is different. Oh and one other thought: IF you would live in a world with all these different ancestries, your picture of what is attractive would be a different one.
Aw yeah Flurry of Spit
So you could make an Unbreakable Goblin named Diamond?
Unbreakable-er goblin is literally GUMMI BERRY JUICE
click clack, me favorite goblin is all of them
favorite goblin deez nuts
clik clak, favourite goblin is rikrak the goblich
"Am I going insane?"
Not yet. You sound nuts, but not insane.
Batman has Very Very Sneaky.
Let me guess what will the Human video will be:
"How GENERIC are Humans in Pathfinder 2e?"
how versatile
Click clack click clack!
goblin
I have clicked the shiny button
What do you mean "unfortunately" Lamashtu is evil? Evil characters aren't always incompatible with party members. You don't have to be a murder hobo to be evil. Nor does it mean you don't ever help people with it means you benefit.
Playing a bard and forgot to take goblin song..
