Hello, for the last 3 years I’ve been running a Dnd 5e campaign, due to recent events with wotc we’ve decided to stop supporting them and switch to of 2e. Are there any good resources for switching? I’m under the impressions that some systems are similar while others are completely different.
Does something like a switching guide exist or is it best to just start from scratch and learn as we go?
And the Archives of Nethys are found at https://2e.aonprd.com (make sure the 2e is part of the URL, or you might be looking at 1e stuff)
While the beginner box has been mentioned multiple times, i also want to mention the bounties (1-2 hours quests with a little bit of combat and exploration, easily extendible to 3-5 hours if you add some roleplay opportunity before and after) and what I consider bounty 00: torment and legacy. While the former cost you a few bucks (some of them have foundry integration you can buy alternatively) the latter is completely free and is made for people switching the system as far as I remember.
While “torment and legacy” can be easily switched to wherever you want, the bounties are placed in a specific regions on Golarion, e.g. there’s one in Nidal having you fight Kuthonists or one in Osirion dealing with a young Sphinx. My group and I tried around some bounties with different pregens until we were ready to build our own characters and found a region for a longer campaign (avistan is very diverse in terms of settings).
