I didn't know venom was a reporter, that actually makes me want to watch his movies, but at least if that gets represented in the movies at all. But anyway glad to see any investigator build, love them
Wow, this character is great. I love the ones with funky archetypes! The ancestry is a starfinder one, maybe if you wanted to go a pure pathfinder build, a fleshwarp ancestry could work.
There was an Ancestry in Starfinder 1e that was literally a Symbiote, and I do hope it makes a return in 2e at some point - But until then, I think this was an excellent choice! Fun video!
Gotta give it to you, investigator was not a class that i considered for someone like Venom, but its a neat take for the duo that this character represents, gj.
Originally we were planning on doing something like barbarian to represent the more savage nature of venom, but I think this represents a slightly more mellowed out character….at least in camparison
Great thing about the Devise a Strategem, per RAW if that attack roll is a Nat 20, you can then use Spellstrike to ensure that 1 shot you have hits as hard as possible. Also, using mixed heritage simulate the Symbiote is a stroke of genius. I've been trying to figure out how do build Venom using Summoner with Meld into Eidolon, and I just couldn't get the healing factor right. This build works so much better. I can't even imagine how bonkers it could get with Free Archetype.
@@time2dice The biggest issue with that route is that you cannot use abilities that originate from you. Healing factor being the major one. It's my main issue with my Guyver build. I can get every other ability (in some form) but healing.
Just a reminder to anyone watching, Ostili Host gets access from the Surki ancestry, so be sure to ask your GM permission in advance to make this very unique build.

I would never thought of going investigator for Venom, but you made it work.

Oh that’s so cool. I unfortunately know next to nothing about Starfinder 1e so I’m excited to see what’s in store

Idk how I didn’t think of summoner that would be so cool
As per the DaS + spellstrike combo it is Amazing its a shame it’s pretty much only once per combat

@@time2dice True, which is why you wait for the high roll/Nat 20 to make sure it hits.
@FireBowProductions yeah it doesn’t help that regenerate is so high level because it would work great down to the weakness to fire
Venom is a cutie patootie

A was just means that it’s not an uncommon option option for surkis, so it’s just like any other uncommon option, but that’s a good call out
