Pathfinder Bestiary (P2)

Fast shipping, and in great condition for used, it has a small paper tear at the top of the spine of the book The overall integrity is still great The pages are still perfect.

I almost loved this book. While I still believe the book is worth buying, I do not believe it is the best 'bang for your buck' of the new edition.First, the good:- There is plenty of variety of creatures;- The artwork is excellent, and in a very fitting style.- Stat blocks are almost universally straightforward to use, and display all the information you need.Now, the bad:- I felt some of the flavor text for some creatures was lacking. The wendigo, for instance, is the most egregious example - a single line of description? C'mon. A lot of relevant info for some creatures is relegated to one or two short sentences in the sidebar. I felt this made the book fall short of what it could have been.- There are no monster creation guidelines. Now, this by itself would have not been as bad, if not for the fact that some creatures have sidebars that describe variants of different levels - but you have no rules in this book to create these new creatures! They are also not in the Core Rulebook, although recently Paizo has released the monster/hazard rules. Nonetheless, I wish they had been in this book - as they did with the Alien Archive for Starfinder, for example.Edit (07/03/2021): it has been almost two years since my original review, and I think it deserves to be revisited.Paizo has since release the Gamemastery Guide, which includes rules for monster creation an adjustment (which at the time of my original review weren't available). It has also released two other bestiaries which cover some of the cases of creatures that were alluded to, but did not have their stats listed. Because all those rules are available online for free, I've re-elected this to four stars. The limited descriptions for creatures, having remained, are still a factor, hence the final star still being deducted.

Lots of great information on encounters . Cover art and the portraits of the monsters are amazing. Some of it is actually good reading.

Excelente libro y juego. Llegó en perfectas condiciones.

Great art throughout and very full of information! Delivered in pristine condition.

The item was beat up and all four corners folded somehow on this hardcover book.

Great starting book with plenty of monsters 👹

I gave it four stars instead of five because I like to read the flavor text for the monsters. Some of the monsters don't really have much. Also, some of the text did not describe the monster or mention the actual size of the monster, which I prefer to have there.

With beasts big and small, from the mundane like spiders and snakes to the eldritch like shoggoths, this bestiary will keep your party busy for years. I love the illustrations, but also the variety of monsters. Arranged in alphabetical order A-Z.My *only* criticism is that there could be tables for random monsters for different terrains and climates. We do have tables of monsters arranged in level order, which is useful so you can match your encounters to the party's level, but terrain / type of habitat tables would be useful too.

Arrived quickly(one of the bennefits of prime)as usual nice artwork and a host of monsters to get the game rolling. This is one of several bestairys but along with the core rule book is what you need for the game.

The is a lot of monsters i can use. Finally i will make the players face an army of badgers. Basically this book is insane and I reccommend it.

Great book but some pages folded in manufacturing processes and so cut wrong (has extra page area with print alignment markings etc). Didn't ask for refund or replacement as it seemed wasteful.

Lots of content to be inspired by and/or use for crafting adventures.
