Man, gotta wait another week or so to be able to get my hard copy :P I'm looking forward to this book, so much!

Anyone? I hate to self bump but I'm afraid of it falling far down the page...

What it ends up being is more about ease of play. The easier the class is, the "more powerful" it is, as it doesn't take as much work to make it great. This means classes like Fighter, Wizard, Cleric, Druid and a couple of others, which are mostly straightforward, are powerful even if the player doesn't know how to utilize the class properly, really most of the classes in the Core Rule Book with the exception of like the Monk are in the "easy to play" tier. The other splat book classes move more into the "hard to play" tier, they're really really powerful, but they take some knowledge to make work well.

However, Barbarian is one of the lower end of the Full BAB classes.

Of course, this is all my opinion.

I'm considering multiclassing to Buccaneer in our Skulls & Shackles game (hooray ARG!) So, I have a feat related question:

Amateur Gunslinger states that I get the grit and a single 1st level Gunslinger Deed, for now, we say I chose quick clear. Now, in a few levels I multiclass to Buccaneer, which the feat then changes to "Extra Grit", as I'm now a Gunslinger. Would I just lose the deed (quick clear?) The feat doesn't go into detail what it does for non-standard Gunslingers...

I'd like to see some of the Aasimar or Drow stuff coming up!

I'm not 100% sure on the RAW, but I'm assuming you can (with the exception of quicken) as they are "cast" into the potion. But again, a clear answer on this from a developer would be appreciated.

See, I'm under the impression that they CAN, and it's in the "Alchemy" section, involving their extracts, and item usage:

Although the alchemist doesn’t actually cast spells, he

does have a formulae list that determines what extracts
he can create (see page 32). An alchemist can utilize
spell-trigger items if the spell appears on his formuale
list, but not spell-completion items (unless he uses Use
Magic Device to do so). An extract is “cast” by drinking
it, as if imbibing a potion—the effects of an extract
exactly duplicate the spell upon which its formula is
based, save that the spell always affects only the drinking
alchemist. The alchemist uses his level as the caster level
to determine any effect based on caster level.

This seems like it would even be extended to feats as well, especially when you include that last sentence.

while it's true having an open off hand is better for a magus, I'm a Kensai and already have a diminished pool, and during the adventure last night I needed a bludgeoning weapon available to deal with some skeletons. Having an alternate damage type available allows me to be more versatile with my attacks. I'm considering getting "Improved Unarmed Strike" so I don't even need a weapon (and get an amulet of mighty fists with agile for my unarmed attacks, but this is just a preliminary concept)
