Combining Archetypes


Rules Questions


Just a quick question with combining Archetypes.

Suppose I have one archetype that modifies a class feature such as the Clone Master modifying bombs so that they deal 1 dice lower of damage, but I also have the Promethean Alchemist archetype that completely removes bombs. Can I combine these archetypes since both don't remove bombs? I know the answer is probably no but I just want to make sure!


The easy way to remember this, if two archetypes touch the same feature in anyway, they are not stackable.


Yep. Remember it's alters OR replaces that don't stack, so if they both so much as mention the same class feature, they don't stack.

Some GMs are lenient on some of the minor bits (like two archetypes that change your class skills, for instance), but I wouldn't expect it as a matter of course.

A better way to think of it is if things:
Alter, Replace, Modify, Touch, Adjust, Enhance, Corrupt, Swap, Rejig, Enchant, Awesomeate, or Destroy.

Reordering it to:

Alter, Replace, Modify,
Swap, Corrupt, Adjust, Rejig, Enhance, or
Destroy, Awesomeate, Touch, Enchant.

It is much easier to remember:
ARM SCARE DATE!
