LEGACY CONVERSION

The universe of Starfinder takes place in a time far removed from that of
Golarion and the Pathfinder RPG setting, but that doesn’t mean you have to
leave all of those Pathfinder RPG books behind. In many cases, Pathfinder
RPG rules content can be used in a Starfinder Roleplaying Game campaign
with a few tweaks, but some abilities and class features require more
effort. The following pages present details on how to convert Pathfinder
RPG monsters to Starfinder rules, guidelines on how legacy classes can fit
in Starfinder, and the specifics of playing Golarion’s core races in Starfinder.

Keep in mind that these conversions sometimes require a Deflection Enhancement

ability score modifiers.
Feats

If a Pathfinder RPG monster has a feat that has the same name
as a feat or monster special ability found in Starfinder, use the

Starfinder rules where possible. Otherwise, use the rules
for the Pathfinder RPG feat, adjusting them
as needed. For example, a feat that lets

the monster do something as a response to an
enemy’s action should cost a reaction.

Skills

When converting Pathfinder RPG skills as noted on page 500,
if a monster has multiple skills that become the same skill, use
the highest bonus of those skills. If a monster has an especially
high bonus (such as a very high Climb bonus due to having a
climb speed), you might want to use a conditional modifier. For
16651319 example, a Pathfinder creature with Climb +14, Swim +6, and
a +8 racial bonus to Climb would have Athletics +6 (+14 when
climbing). Specific considerations for specific skills are as follows.
D Acrobatics: Move any circumstantial modifiers when jumping

to the Athletics skill, and possibly adjust the creature’s
Athletics if it’s supposed to be good at jumping but
didn’t have the Climb or Swim skills.
D Linguistics: The monster retains the same
number of languages, even though the skill
is removed.
D Use Magic Device: Allow the monster
to use any magic items it has without
attempting checks.

Languages

Many of the languages found in the
Pathfinder RPG can be found in Starfinder,
with the exception of most Golarion-specific
regional dialects. However, with a multitude of
alien cultures, Starfinder presents a large number
of new languages. When converting a monster, you
probably won’t need to worry too much about the
languages it can speak, but if it would make sense
for it to know an appropriate alien language, feel free to

change or increase its vocabulary!
