Hey everyone,

I'm a little embarrassed to try to plug my show on here, but I figured some people might be interested. We are running through the Ironfang Invasion Adventure Path and are having a killer time running it. I feel like the sound quality is decent enough for us just starting off. We feature a rough and tumble half-orc bard, a rough and tumble human ranger, a druggie gnome, a mesmerist with a bit of a wild streak and a rough and tumble human paladin.

I personally love the archetype. A human that takes rogue talent FCB gets 13 rogue talents which can be turned into combat feats. There are a lot of fun things you can do in combat with a combination for lots of feats and skills. Phantom things will never do tons of damage but as a debuffer/battle field controller (with intimidate feats) or a AoO build using certain style feats you could do a lot of work.

Right now this is just theory crafting but if it works I think it would be fun to play in a home game.

The basic idea is taking brown fur transmuter for a level and using the human bonus feat to pick up extra exploit at level one.I'd take school understanding (transmutation) and bloodline development (I don't know what yet). Then I'd dip a level of wizard and a level of sorcerer. Both exploits say that if you gain an actual bloodline or school from another source it lets you count your arcanist levels for progression of "powers and abilities." Then I'd take the rest of my levels in arcanist. I'd take magical knack to keep caster level up and to answer the BAB concerns my GM gave us mythic teirs in the game I'd play in so I can take the archmage ability to treat CL as BAB while transformed. At that point I'd have a 19th level school and Bloodline (barring items to raise the level of them of course).

So my questions:
1. what bloodline synergizes best with a transmutation/melee specialist?
2. IS this just a terrible idea?

You always count as your own ally, so yes.

Monocle Barbarian?

I would also accept prestige classes for this challenge
