PF Battle

I have now purchased every Pathfinder related app produced by this author and they are all extremely useful and informative. I particularly like how the XP information is also provided to make reward calculation easier. Making NPC & monster mixes are simple and all bonuses and penalties are easy to add. As an advanced developer myself, I am happy to see quality work of this sort. This is yet another great app by an obviously great developer.

Makes running the game so much faster and easier. No more rifling through books, or Google searching the PRD. Also, nice that I don't have to print out monster stat blocks and keep them in line. I can simply arrange them by battle, and go from there. I also really enjoy keeping the base character stats (as separate 'mobs') on my device. It makes it much easier to roll initiative, but let the app take care of monster init. However, one thing I was looking forward too, was attaching images to the monsters. Unfortunately, it crashes the program every time I try (Google Nexus 7; Small Air Elemental). Also, it would be really handy to have the familiars as separate entries, so we could have some low-level animal creatures. As of right now, they are nowhere to be found.

I like it very much, it helps prepare and run battles for my games. Unfortunately I cannot rate it 5 stars because there are some things missing. - It is missing the familiar stats from the bestiary I, useful for adding a small animal such as a cat or hawk. It may be missing other mobs but for now this is what I saw. - There is no way to put a negative amount of initiative or save on custom characters or mobs, which is very inconvenient. Nonetheless it is still a good app. I do recommend it. I will be able to rate it 5 stars when at least the ''negative amounts'' issue has been resolved.

Does its job well and gives basic tools to handle non default mobs like those found in an adventure path. Will greatly simplify my DMing by allowing me to focus more on story instead of numbers.

This app is very robust and intuitively laid out which makes it a snap for a hurried user to put together a battle and manage it from a smart device. The support provided for Paizo OGL content is simply incredible. The only feature missing is an import of PC sheets from Hero Lab. I understand adding this feature can be troublesome and time consuming, however, given that Hero Lab is currently licensed to create PC sheets, I would think the developer would want to add this feature to generate more sales.

Allows me to easily pre-plan encounters and run them effortlessly, allowing more of a role-playing focus in sessions.

I like the app and the concept behind it, but I would love it if it was more customizable. For instance, the monster hit points default to the "average" value in the bestiary, but there isn't a good option to set it to max or to a custom value. I found the option to add bonus hit points, but that did not have the desired effect as after adding bonus HPs it stopped decrementing/incrementing when I would use the inflict/heal tools. I would also like the ability to import my own monsters and/or monsters from the other books. If the dev needs help I might be able to help get new monster files set up. Also, the way it calculates damage seems to be off. I was using it to run a combat last weekend and the app said my NPC got a +7 bonus to damage, but it rolled a damage total of something like 4. How is that possible with a minimum damage of 8 (1 from die roll + 7 from bonus)? Initial rating is a 3. Update with a fix to either thing I mentioned above and I'll revise to a 4...update both and I'll give it a 5.

After trying many similar apps PF Battle was the best. Feature rich with sensical interface choices - totally worth the price.

This really helps me out. My only complaints are you can't add class lvl to monsters there is info missing on the description section of monsters. Waiting patiently for updates keep up the good work.

For anything in the first three bestiaries, this app is very useful. However, there is no way to create a fully custom creature and the developer doors not seem to be receptive to requests to do so.

I see a lot of reviews saying that this is really intuitive but maybe I'm missing something. Can the Dev put together a wiki or something that has instructions. It looks really powerful but it requires more explanation.

Love this app used it the first time last night for my players, but it would be nice if you could add base classes to some of these. Over all loved it 5 stars, but plz look into adding classes to the monster.

By all appearances, this app is exactly what I've been looking for. I'm sure that after using it I'll give it the fifth star.

I'm finding the interface to be a bit confusing when switching between combat and adding monsters to an encounter, but the app is amazingly useful otherwise! Highly recommend it for every DM.

Really good, only needs bestiary 4 and adventures

Awesome app! Has most monsters and a decent ui

It's great but needs more monster manual support.

We always use this app for our game

Needs to have more options for creating monsters

Exactly what I needed.

Excellent in all respects save one; little to no available information on how to use it if you are new to these apps/programs. If I am wrong, please point me to them and I will change it to 5 stars!

I hope to see more monsters added soon.

I previously had several minor complaints here... but the author fixed them all. I'm very impressed. :-) This is a very nice app for managing Pathfinder combat, I definitely recommend it.

This app is truly amazing and my DM uses it for all the battles in our games now. The only problem I have with it is that it does not follow the Google standards of Holo, and it would look even better if it did.
