So despite having the acronym "SRD" in the name:


http://www.d20pfsrd.com/home


Is not actually affiliated with Paizo publishing, and so may not contain all errata.  It's not a big deal, but it's not an authoritative site in my mind.  Highly recommend using:


http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/


which is the authoritative reference.

Yes, but pfsrd has many more of the paizo released splat books (i know you love that term). As long as a player is able to determine the difference between paizo and 3rd party, i prefer the former.


The latter should be used, however, for any rules questioning.

PRD is a pain to navigate (from experience). 

The SRD has many ways to get to the same conclusion. Also, the SRD is a widely accepted source for many, many groups and I don't feel we should be any different. 

IMO the SRD is an essential tool to gaming and speeds up the process. With-out it I would rather just use the books we have.

I don't have any issue navigating the PRD.  Just remember that some rules on the non-paizo site might not have errata incorporated.  I'm not saying "don't use the SRD".  I'm saying, check the prd for errata on rules.

I hate rules.
