  • ok so for anyone wandering, most rolls in pf2e are required to be open, except for actions with the secret trait, which the gm rolls in secret. there are very fw of those, and they are only ever used for when a player/pc shouldn’t know how well they went. some examples are: peception checks, stealth, recall knowledge, deception, and some other similar checks that, in real life, you couldn’t really know how well you did














  • yeah in pf2 it’s a level based DC, and if it’s an uncommon, rare, or unique creature that will increase the DC

    also the skill to use for recall knowledge depends on the creature’s trait:
    humanoid > society;
    animal > nature;
    dragon > arcana;
    abberation > occultism;
    etc

    though the GM can rule that you can use something else if they choose.



  • obligatory pathfinder fixes that

    pf2e has an action called recall knowledge that lets you roll to see if your character knows something about something. in this case, player could ask if trolls have any weaknesses, and roll a recall knowledge check using society (trolls are humanoid) and they might be able to learn about the trolls’ fire weakness
