Building encounters that are actually survivable, awarding treasure at a rate that does not break the maths, adjudicating the situations your players invent specifically to break the maths, and the long section on hazards and afflictions you will find yourself reading at eleven at night before a session.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat it does better than most game master books is take the guesswork out. Pathfinder is precise by design, and this is the book that makes that precision usable — encounter budgets, level-appropriate DCs, tables for the things you will need at speed. There is also a lot of practical advice about running a table that has nothing to do with rules, and it is worth the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for:\u003c\/strong\u003e The one who ends up running it because nobody else volunteered, and then discovers they like it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCore rulebook | Hardback | Pathfinder Second Edition (Remastered)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paizo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49716056129688,"sku":"PZO12002-HC","price":103.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0772\/8381\/9672\/files\/GMCore2NdEd.png?v=1787831472","url":"https:\/\/www.cartellgames.com.au\/products\/pathfinder-gm-core","provider":"Cartell Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
