To be clear, a level 80 creature would be over one trillion times stronger than a level 20 characterI know just enough about Pathfinder to think *"yeah, that sounds like the kind of beautiful nonsense I should expect for Pathfinder"*

To be clear, a level 80 creature would be over one trillion times stronger than a level 20 characterIt wouldn't even roll dice. With a weighted die to roll all natural 1's, all results would still be decided by modifiers alone, and the results would be death. The best case scenario is that the creature acts as the immortal snail, and your character spends the rest of their life on the run.

A natural 1 on an attack roll is an automatic miss in Pathfinder, isn't it? Your modifiers don't matter if you keep rolling automatic misses.Not in Pathfinder 2E! There are four possible results to a roll: - Critical failure - failure - success - critical success Natural 1's and 20's are not automatic misses or hits, they only move you down or up a step in the result. > if your modifier for a statistic is so high that adding it to a 1 from your d20 roll exceeds the DC by 10 or more, you can succeed even if you roll a natural 1! https://2e.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=2287
