What is Bestiary 4
0
Bestiary 4.0 is a major update to the Bestiary rules for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game that was released in August 2017. This update introduces a new system for designing and creating monsters, as well as a revised bestiary format that makes it easier to find the information you need on the creatures you encounter.
The biggest change in Bestiary 4.0 is the introduction of Templates. Templates allow you to quickly and easily modify an existing creature to create a new one, without having to start from scratch. For example, if you want to create a fire-breathing dragon, you can start with the red dragon template and then add the fire breath ability.
This saves time and effort when creating new monsters, and ensures that all creatures are balanced against each other.
In addition to templates, Bestiary 4.0 also introduces several new creature types, including aberrations, celestials, fey, fiends, plants, and undead. These new creature types bring with them their own set of rules and abilities that must be taken into account when designing encounters or fighting these foes.
Overall, Bestiary 4.0 is a significant improvement over previous editions of the bestiary and provides GMs with everything they need to create exciting and challenging encounters for their players.
