Thanks for all you do Halfbrood!

The pillar of stability in all this chaos.
(that said your grease pillars shall forever haunt my dreams)

My suggestion is to have the gallant swashbucklers add their CHA mod to their AC as long as they are not using a shield or offhand weapon.

1. to incentivize  no shield swashbucklers
2. to match their description of "  excels both in combat situations and social interactions, making her a versatile character indeed. "

Currently the split between STR/DEX/INT they require makes CHA a tough choice to take without some merit though I do think it would fit the class fantasy.
If it could also be used to prevent shield use which in my opinion does not fit the class fantasy that would be cool.

I think both un-buffed and buffed mod might work but i'll leave that to the balance pro's.

Adjust the slaver perk to give exotic at lvl 1 instead of 5 to allow weapon focus/specialization in weapons earlier.
Also annoying should you die to below 5 and cant use your weapons anymore.

Perk in question:

I feel they might just start using /c recall then. (thought dont think its works in combat so more limited.

I have seen it used as well yes where summons (especially undead) are told to " stay in place "
While the summoner invis runs through a zone so their summons are not detected but they dont have to invis them.

its a tough one to implement.

A perk that has synergy with curses and cursed gear.

Aka regular buffs like bulls etc actually harm them giving minus attributes.
But spells like curse give them +2 to all attributes across the board.

Idea is that normally negative spells, gear and diseases buff them instead.

The Thug feat duration increase to rage is not calculated into all furor effects.
Change mentioned here:

Currently /c roll bluff check does not really work as people instantly OOC know you are bluffing and become hyper aware of what you are doing.
So my suggestion is to add a part of your bluff skill to the visible (yellow text that pops up) part of all or fitting check rolls.

For example.
10 str 0 bluff = "X's strength is average"
10 str 20 bluff= "X's strength is impressive"

Etc
That way you can really use bluff in a flexible way.
Maybe add a toggle to turn in on/off.

Improved invisibility also has a hard counter in "invisibility purge" which removes both the invisibility as well as the evasion % chance.
Improved invis is also mainly used for the 50% evasion that lasts long. So if stoneskin is buffed it would just be combined with displacement making fighter types a lot stronger with potions so if implemented should be a Caster only thing.
The 5/+4 also further hard nerfs dual wield builds and promotes big damage to get over DR. (aka high crits) so doubt that's desirable.

Honestly a very tough thing to change with a ton of aspects. I would not know where to go.
Maybe a % to slash/blunt/pierce rather than 5/+4 dr as this scales with damage taken rather than affecting 1h very hard?

Downsides of stress
More or less up to the DM team, could be similar to the planar sickness effects.
Depending on class they could be different or maybe even beneficial? (letting out all that pent up stress in a rage, or monks being resistant)
Depending on alignment different things might be stressful?

What gives stress?
Certain very dangerous quest zones give a lot of stress (can be used to prevent farming of certain quests too)
Some rings could be very stressful/spooky to get through.
DM event zones where you are literally fighting TCHUN or watching people roll for a feast

My suggestion is to try and convert the Planar Sickness system (that sees a lot less use now) to a Stress management system.
Being an adventurer is stressful business and you need time to cool down every now and then.
This will also gives players the opportunity to build RP around helping others deal with their stress or dealing with high stress of their own.

Thanks for reading and sorry for the split posts its due to forum issues not allowing me to put in all in 1

Doesn't simply drinking a "inflict X " potion make you immune to further healing of the same or lower level for a bit.
You could just drink an "inflict critical wounds" potion as undead (or feed it to your undead) and they would be immune to the cure variants.
