Pathfinder (2e): Diplomacy & Intimidation
The basics of influence in the Pathfinder 2nd Edition RPG from Paizo.
*This is an updated version of a previously published video. The original version is accurate, but I corrected one off-the-cuff remark about what happens when you critically fail an attempt to Request. The previous version implied that a critical fail could lower the target's attitude to Hostile if they were already Unfriendly, but since you have to be at least Friendly to attempt Request, that couldn't happen.
In this video we examine how players may influence other characters. We discuss the attitude conditions (Helpful, Friendly, Indifferent, Unfriendly, and Hostile), as well as skill actions that can be used to alter an NPC's attitude (Make an Impression, Request, Coerce, Demoralize and Lie).
