I cannot recommend the Pathbuilder app enough. It narrows everything down to the available options based on what you've chosen so far, without taking the option of house ruling away from you.

Just keep in mind that cross-referencing options with Archives of Nethys is also super important. I've had 2 players build overly complicated characters and needed a ton of help to unbork them simply because they didn't read anything before making a selection

Can you link the app? I cannot find it.

[–] kichae@wanderingadventure.party 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's not available yet on iOS (though an iOS port is in development). You can find it on the web at pathbuilder2e.com. Mobile and web apps don't sync, though. The paid versions allow you to save characters to Google Drive, which you can use to sync them.

oh, it's just pathfinder 2? darn. Would love to switch off of PCGen, but there isn't much for just character sheets for pathfinder 1e from what I've found.

There's a Pathbuilder 1e, but I think it might only be for Android. I haven't seen a web-based version.

*if you have donated/bought the premium version

Okay, cloud saving, custom items and companions for a single payment of 4.50 EUR. But you can completely disregard the rules and freely give skills, spells and feats with the free version. The app is very well maintained, gets updates at least monthly. They were so fast with the implementation of the remaster. I'd love to gift the app to people in my group, who are struggling a bit more financially, but Google doesn't have a functionality like that unfortunately.
