Hello Pathfinders! There's a new Adventure Path in the database this month, along with some new features and added improvements to the website. We're still behind on a bit of Art, but hopefully will be bringing a large amount of that to the Archives soon!

Happy gaming and enjoy!

Site Updates

  • New section "Articles" added to Settings area. This will contain a summary of all setting articles found in various Adventure Paths (and other related books) that may be of interest to GMs and players alike.
  • Implemented code on all pages so Previews in chat programs like Discord and Slack will now show page contents.
  • Spoiler warnings added to applicable mechanics. Spoiler column added to Equipment and Feat tables, along with a Spoiler superscript tag on the Spells list. Individual entries for those and more (including Archetypes, Diseases, etc.) will show a banner at the top of each entry when the Source is from an Adventure Path or Adventure product.
  • Game logos at the top of the site have been updated to Paizo art - PF1E and Starfinder site will be updated with the same this week.
  • An "Earn Income" calculator (written by Milan) has been added to the site. You can find a link to it here or on the Earn Income general skill.
  • A new page for "All Equipment" has been added, which shows equipment from all sources in one table, alongside Rarity columns, Traits, and more. A filter for this is not currently present but will be coming very soon!
  • Contact Us page updated with links to the Discord servers where we have feedback channels.

I hope everyone's having a great GenCon so far! We decided to do another quick update tonight to resolve a few bugs we saw pop up, along with implement a couple new changes to bring some clarity. We've adjusted the Archetypes page to now show some optional categories, if you're looking to filter down the selection a bit. We also made the new area for Half-Human Heritages so as to avoid confusion with the new Versatile ones. Enjoy the new content and happy gaming!

Welcome to the midnight update for the Archives of Nethys! This year has been stressful for many, and with GenCon being digital in 2020 we know that online resources are more important than ever. The AoN team has been working themselves to the bone to ingest all of this new content and prepare it for you all to enjoy, so humongous thanks goes to all of the team for their constant help and attention to the material!

Along with the new books come a few changes we know some of you have been requesting for a bit, including automatically-generated creature lists for Summons, skill feats broken up by specific skill, and more! Changes to the existing filters are in the works (along with an "All Equipment" page), but unfortunately were a bit too much to squeeze into tonight's update. We're also currently missing the art for PF #157 but will have that up soon.

Look forward to more in the months to come, and I hope everyone has an amazing GenCon! Happy Gaming and enjoy!

Site Changes (New Pages)

Site Changes (Other)

  • New Art: All art for the NPCs from the GMG along with the new APG ancestries and classes have been added to their respective entries
  • Archetypes: Main page now shows Dedication Feat level on right side of header
  • Ancestries/Heritages: Ancestries page adjusted to show Versatile Heritages apart from the rest. Half-Elves and Half-Orcs, despite being linked to Humans in the mechanics, are located here now as optional flavor suggests they could come from non-Humans as well
  • Feats: Pages to look at only a specific Skill for Skill Feats now available (eg: Acrobatics)
  • Monsters: Grouped Family information now shows on relevant monsters (eg: Adult Brass Dragon)
  • Sidebars: Sidebars moved to be in-line with the rest of the text on a few sections (Classes, Conditions, Rules). Other pages will be adjusted with future updates.
  • Source Entries: All source entries will now show a version number when errata has been applied - currently only the Core Rulebook shows this. The number we show will follow the format X.Y, where X = Print Number and Y = Errata Release. As this is the first printing and the first set of errata, we use 1.1
  • Spells/Rituals: All Summon spells and three Rituals now show a full list of creatures you can summon/call with them. Per the text of the Spells, only Common creatures are shown with the Summon Spells. The Rituals do not make note of this so all rarities are shown with the three rituals we applied this to. These will automatically update as new creatures are added to the database (eg: Summon Animal, Abyssal Pact)
