Agreed. In fact it's had such problems that its content doesn't even seem to be federating to my main instance anymore, likely because it's been deemed "dormant."
We're also several versions behind and there have been major security fixes since then...
I've never really run 2e before this except for the Beginner's Box, and because I worked that into Foundry myself I mystified all the items. But I see that the AV Foundry module doesn't mystify anything, which leads me to wonder if I should be making players identify items or not?
Obviously healing potions I don't, since they have encountered them enough to know what they are.
Maybe it does now, but it didn't when I used it last time (it had just come out.)

Format: 4 panel comic
Panel 1: A crow sits on a stool and speaks into a microphone. It says "Level 5: Extra Attack"
Panel 2: A heckler in the crowd in front of the crow shouts "Booo! Get better features!"
Panel 3: The crow sweats nervously
Panel 4: We see the note cards in the crow's wing-hands, which say "Level 11: Extra Attack times 2"

I highly recommend that everyone describe their images here! There are visually impaired people who would love to participate, and this makes memes accessible to them. :)

ugin-the-spirit-dragon says: "One time a guy in our party rolled a nat 20 on a perception check, but there was nothing around he didn't already see, so the DM said 'You're not quite sure, but for a few seconds it seems like you're standing on a giant's table, surrounded by 5 giants.Your party seems to look stiff and fake,and large papers and dice are strewn around you. Then, everything goes back to normal.'"

Title: "DND characters I've been banned from playing."
A drawing of a smiling woman with pointed ears and a blond updo looks at us. She wears a green dress like a folded leaf, with yellow and blacked striped tights underneath. Bees buzz around her.

A drawing of a red-skinned person with horns and yellow eyes without pupils reads from a book. Cards float above their hand. Their robe bears a red B symbol, in the style of the D&D Beyond logo.

A drawing of a zombie-like person in tattered clothes holding a staff made of bones looks at us. The staff glows green.
Caption: "Necromancer who raised themselves from the dead, and now has to maintain the spell."
A drawing of a person-sized mechanical snake with a drill bit for a tail and a piece of wire as a tongue.

From what I recall, it doesn't import spells. Which is a bit annoying, but totally workable.
Hey @SenseiRat, could we get a memes channel? I'm sure there will be more soon!
For me it was whips. They seemed like the ultimate Rogue weapon, but the Martial classification made it way too feat-intensive. I can't wait to play with one!
At my table we added the Divine Lance change (ie, it can actually do damage to things,) as well as ignoring the Open trait, giving Rogues access to martial weapons and Wizards access to simple weapons. Other stuff we'll probably wait for the books to come out.
The one that comes with it is fine. Please note that there are multiple computers under the name "Yoga," some are very cheap. I have a first generation Thinkpad X1 Yoga. The X380 Yoga and others in that series are apparently also very good. The cheap ones are not.
Absolutely agree. For absolute newbies I tend to nudge them toward playing as Merisiel or something similar for the first oneshot, just so they can get a feel for the basic rules before needing to master their character quirks. We of course had someone who had never played PF insist on playing an Inventor for their first character, and after we finished the oneshot they realized that they'd missed their main class feature the whole time and that's why they felt so ineffective. Whoops!
I am mildly afraid of this myself, as I'll be running the Beginner's Box soon for a group of 4 with custom-built characters. All of us have played PF2e a little bit, but not enough to necessarily know what's a good choice mechanically or tactically.
