Pathfinder 2e
A place for people to discuss Pathfinder 2e
Rules:
1. Be Kind and Respectful
Criticism of the game or its mechanics should not turn into attacks on a member of the community. Community members are encouraged to ask questions or seek advice, and should be able to expect respectful and courteous answers. In general, treat others of the community as you would a colleague or friend.
2 Do Not Post Copyrighted Content
Content that is not covered by the Open Game License, Open RPG Creative License, and/or made publicly available by Paizo or a third party is not allowed. View Paizo's community use policy.
3. Post Content of Quality
Posts should be able to spark dialogue, add interesting perspectives, educate, and otherwise contribute to the 2E experience. Quality EX: homebrew rules, analysis, something you discovered/encountered, memes that teach mechanics, stuff with a story. Low effort EX: the cover of a rulebook, AI generated content, unconstructive complaints such as "I hate..." or "X sucks," does not relate to Pathfinder 2E.
4. Limit Promotional Posts
This is a community and we welcome your content but we expect your participation in this community in return. Only 1 self-promotion post per week is allowed. Verified content creators may promote new content regularly. Only verified content creators can promote posts which may require purchases, sign-ups, or provide incentives for participation.
With the advent of Pathfinder Infinite, users advertising Infinite products will also fall under this rule.
5. Art Post Details and Attribution
Art posts must include a follow-up comment relating them to Pathfinder 2e. This could be a campaign summary, ABC and build, or character profile, as appropriate. You must also credit the artist: images that are uncredited or AI generated will be removed.

Not OP, but these are the two problems I run into in any crpg / arpg / trpg I play. I also find when I try to avoid stressing over it I end up too under powered to actually do anything in the game in playing. Very open to advice if you have any!
The reason I asked about those two things specifically was because in PF2E, it's very difficult to make a "wrong" choice. Most of your power comes directly from leveling up, not from feats. So my advice would be not to stress about what the optimal choice is for minmaxing and instead to focus on the best choice to realize your concept of your character.
