Ah yes... I have greatly enjoyed my time with pathfinder1. My only complaint was that the Thematic books and their refined systems ULTIMATE HORROR and my go to love ULTIMATE INTRIGUE came years and years after release.

I believe WE ALL would benefit greatly having THEMATIC MECHANICAL systems built into the GMG.

Not just a simple paragraph I mean a couple of Pages dedicated to each THEME and mechanics taken from the old systems.

THEMATIC MECHANICS CHAPTER:
1.INTRIGUE verbal duels, Influence system, Contacts etc...
2.HORROR fear level mechanics, hauntings,etc…
3.MYSTERY clues, suspects, changes to dc's etc...
4.WAR masscombat, kingdom influence and running etc...

And give a very quick example on what items should be changed in rarity level. I think new players would love to have the stuff from the old books refined and simplified in the new system. To have a GMG with the old mechanics in one book would be heaven.

I am aware I could just use my old books and convert to the newer dc's but I just thought this would be a Golden opportunity to just have that in the GMG for this edition from the Start!

Thank you for your time and answers,

Not to sound too dramatic but honestly I cannot find Heal or Healing spells in the Occult section...

I Love everything they have done with BARDS in both flavor and mechanics and especially how the two are combined in their own unique way.

But then I was preparing spells and I noticed I could no longer have my trusty level one Cure Wounds (or HEAL as its called now)

I thought it worked in some way with the cleric being special... However it seems funny to me that Necromancy would not be Occult. Both negative and positive powers seem very Occult in a story sense Especially dealing with Ghosts and the unseen intrigue.

It also makes it seem like I will be forced to have a cleric and that is something Im not fond of. Now I have lots of experience with P1 but P2 I am still scratching the surface.

Is there any way to add Heal to my list of spells as a bard? Or is healing not as demanding as it was in P1? Will it hurt the bards in the long run to have made such a change.

Please educate me and help me to understand this decision...
