Automatic Bonus Progression
In order to face the dangers of the game, characters in the Pathfinder RPG normally need items that grant bonuses to their statistics. With this variant, characters instead gain those bonuses automatically as they increase in level, allowing them to use magic item slots for more interesting items. All characters gain the abilities listed on the table within Pathfinder Unchained when they reach the appropriate level. Decrease character wealth by level to half the normal amount. The automatic bonuses are often more beneficial than that reduction in wealth, but characters have less flexibility, so the advantages and disadvantages balance out. Items that only grant bonuses to AC, saving throws, and ability scores don’t exist in this variant, and wish and similar spells never grant inherent bonuses to ability scores. Magic weapons and armour do exist, but grant only special abilities, not enhancement bonuses.
Deflection
The character gains a +1 deflection bonus to AC at 5th level;
this bonus increases to +2 at 10th level,
to +3 at 16th level,
to +4 at 17th level,
and to +5 at 18th level.
Armour Attunement
The character can attune herself to one suit of armour or one shield in her possession; she can change that attunement once per day. If she selects a normal set of clothing as her armour, it counts as having a starting enhancement bonus of +0. The attuned suit of armour gains a +1 enhancement bonus at 4th level.
At 8th level, she can split her attunement between a suit of armour and a shield, granting each a +1 enhancement bonus.
