Okay! So I worked a little more on this, I think I have a finished version of the class, complete with racial bonuses and archetypes.

Guerrilla (Final Version)

Please enjoy! I'll perhaps try my hand at more classes soon, looking at mechanics that don't get as much appreciation, just like Improvised Weapons.

Okay! Gonna necro this old post cos I finally got around to making a 2nd version of this that's a little more balanced and less like an amorphous amalgamation of every other class out there. I've drawn a lot of inspiration from the 'Cad' fighter archetype and 'Tavern Brawler' brawler archetype, but I've tried to make it as close to it's own thing as I can, using new original abilities and an entirely revamped progression system.

Few people become Guerilla's willingly, indeed, many are thrown into the lifestyle through happenstance. Those who have lost everything, or have been shunned by society, or even born into poverty tend to be amongst the caste that forms Guerillas. Their ability to adapt and overcome stems from their ability to imrpovise makeshift solutions to problems where limited options are available, fashioning tools and equipment from scrap and refuse, and using the environment as a potent weapon. Guerilla's scrounge and salvage the battlefield to gather improvised weapons, using their light equipment loads to provide much needed agility in the face of danger, and resort to dirty fighting and underhanded tactics to gain an advantage in combat. A Guerilla is the most capable individual where resources are limited and preparation is minimal, and make for invaluable companions out in unfamiliar territory.

Role: Guerilla's thrive in sticky situations, able to apply clever thinking and crude tehcnique to overcome almost any obstacle. In combat, the Guerilla utilised any nearby object to his advantage, prefering to fight with his surroundings than a traditional weapon, remaining unburdened by cumbersome equipment.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency:
A Guerrilla is proficient with all simple weapons. They are proficient with light armor, but not with shields.

Improvised Arsenal:
A Guerrilla is a versatile combatant, utilising his surroundings to improvise weaponry to devastating effect. He gains Throw Anything and Catch Off-Guard as bonus feats.

Improvised Strike:
A Guerilla is a master of imrpovising weapons in the field, whether it's a bottle or tankard in the heat of a tavern brawl, or grabbing the nearest set of tools and putting them to new purpose against your enemies. When a Guerilla makes an attack with an improvised weapon, he instead may strike with the damage values shown below. If the damage is less than what the improvised weapon offers, he may instead choose which damage value to use before the attack is made.
As the Guerilla advances in levels, his damage with improvised weapons increases, allowing him to make even the most unassuming object a deadly weapon. A Small Guerrilla deals less damage than the amount given there with her improvised weapon attacks attacks, while a Large Guerrilla deals more damage; see the following table.
LEVEL SMALL MEDIUM LARGE
1-3 1d4 1d6 1d8
4-7 1d6 1d8 2d6
8-11 1d8 1d10 2d8
12-15 1d10 2d6 3d6
16-19 2d6 2d8 3d8
20 2d8 2d10 4d8

Survivalism (Ex):
A Guerrilla's inventive problem-solving doesn't stop at improvising weapons, he may also improvise other equipment. He gains the 'Craft Shoddy Item' feat, and may substitute his Survival skill in place of his Craft skill when using this feat.
By doing so, he gains a proficiency bonus to Survival equal to his Guerrilla level when crafting items in this fashion. This does not prevent Guerillas from crafting with his usual craft skills, nor does it change how craft skills function. However, you may not use this ability in conjunction with other crafting feats.

Living Light (Ex):
At 2nd level, the Guerilla learns that a light load can augment his evasive techniques.
So long as you are carrying no more than a light load, you gain a +1 Dodge bonus to your AC and a +1 bonus to your Reflex Saves. This bonus increases by a further +1 every 4 levels thereafter, to a maximum of +5 at 18th level. You will lose this bonus if your equipment exceeds a light load, or if you are immobilised or helpless.

Guerilla Tricks:
At 2nd level, and every 2 levels thereafter, a Guerilla may select from a pool of tricks to augment his abilities. Unless otherwise specified, these tricks may only be taken once.

Guerilla Tricks:

Versatile Weapon: - You may use Survivalism to add one weapon modification to an improvised weapon, so long as it resembles the base weapon required in the modification's prerequisites. The weapon does not change from simple to martial, nor martial to exotic when modified as base weapons do.
Poison Use: You cannot accidentally poison yourself when applying poison to a weapon.

Swift Poisoning: (Req. Guerilla level 4, Poison Use) - You can apply poison to a weapon as a move action instead of a standard action.

Instant Poisoning (Req. Guerilla level 16, Poison Use, Swift Poisoning) - You can apply poison to a weapon as an immediate action.

Improvised Trap: - You may learn one trap from the list of Ranger Traps, and are able to prepare a number of ranger traps per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier. Traps use the damage values listed in Improvised Strike. You may select this trick multiple times, choosing a different trap each time.

Rogue Talent: - Upon selection, you may learn one of the following rogue talents in place of a guerilla trick, treating your guerilla level as your rogue level; - Last Ditch Effort, Papercraft Tools, Hairpin Trick, Quick Scrounge, Quick Trapsmith, Rogue Crawl, Scavenger, Surprise Attack, Trap Spotter, Unbalancing Trick, Favored Terrain, Card Sharp, Combat Swipe, Cunning Trigger, Disease Use, Black Market Connections, Camouflage - You may select this trickmultiple times, choosing a different talent each time.

Tinkering: (Req. Guerilla level 4) - You can use Survivalism to create engineered items in place of any Knowledge: Engineering skill checks, but with a -4 penalty.

Create Cover: (Req: Guerilla level 4) - as a full-round action, you may move loose objects nearby to create soft cover or partial cover (your choice). This action provokes an attack of opportunity. You must have enough surrounding debris or loose furniture within a 20ft radius to cover a single humanoid of your size.

Advanced Cover: (Req. Guerilla level 10, Create Cover) - When using the 'Create Cover' trick, you may create full cover as a full-round action, or partial cover or soft cover as a standard action.

Master Cover: (Req. Guerilla level 16, Create Cover, Advanced Cover) - When using 'Create Cover', you may create improved cover as a full-round action, full cover as a standard action, and soft cover or partial cover as a move action.

Trecherous Blow (Req. Guerilla level 16) - When you confirm a critical hit, you can attempt a dirty trick combat maneuver as part of that attack as an immediate action.

Swift Assembly (Ex):
At 3rd level, a Guerrilla can create shoddy items with astounding speed. It takes a Guerrilla half the normal amount of time to create shoddy items with his Survivalism ability.

Crude Combatant (Ex):
At 3rd level, a Guerilla learns how to use his wits instead of his brawn when fighting dirty. You can use your Dexterity modifier in place of your Strength modifier when performing dirty trick combat manuevers. At 12th level, you may add both your strength and your dexterity modifier to dirty trick combat manuevers.

Clever Implements (Ex):
At 5th level, a Guerilla may alter the type of damage dealt by an improvised weapon to bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage during his turn.
At 7th level, his improvised weapons are treated as cold iron and silver for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 15th level, the Guerilla chooses one alignment component: chaotic, evil, good, or lawful; his improvised weapon strikes also count as this alignment for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. (This alignment component cannot be the opposite of the Guerilla's actual alignment, such as a good Guerilla choosing evil strikes.)
At 17th level, his improvised weapons are treated as adamantine for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

Temporary Arms (Ex):
At 7th level, when a Guerilla wields an improvised weapon, he may sacrifice the weapon's hit points to gain an advantage on her next attack during that turn. When he successfully lands an attack with an improvised weapon he may choose to sacrifice hit points on the weapon equal to the damage made in the attack, in doing so he gains a +2 competence bonus on the next attack that turn.
This ability can be used multiple times per turn, so long as the Guerilla has another attack action available. If the weapon gains the 'broken' condition, the Guerilla may no longer use this ability with the weapon.
At appropriate levels, the Guerilla uses the hardness of the materials listed in Clever Implements for his weapons when calculating object damage (10 hardness for cold Iron, progressing to 20 hardness for Adamantine).

Jack of All Trades (Ex):
At 11th level, the Guerilla can use any skill, even if the skill normally requires him to be trained. At 16th level, the Guerilla considers all skills to be class skills. At 19th level, the Guerilla can take 10 on any skill check, even if it is not normally allowed.

Greater Temporary Arms (Ex):
At 15th level, when making an attack with an improvised weapon with the 'broken' condition, he may use his Temporary Arms ability to further augment his next attack. A Guerilla can choose to gain a +5 competence bonus on his next attack with any broken improvised weapon, but upon doing so the weapon is destroyed at the end of his turn, even if he does not hit.

Instant Assembly (Ex):
At 19th level, an Guerilla can create shoddy items with his Survivalism ability with almost supernatural speed. He can create any shoddy item as a full-round action if he succeeds at the Survival check and has the appropriate resources at hand to fund the creation.

Master Survivalist (Ex):
At 20th level, the Guerilla becomes a master of self-sufficiency and adaption. Whenever he makes an attack with the Greater Temporary Arms ability, he may make a free Dirty Trick combat manuever at the end of his turn, using the last remnants of his weapon to inflict a little more suffering on his foes.
In addition, the Guerilla is no longer affected by any negative affects by the 'broken' condition on any of his equipment, but they may still be damaged or destroyed as normal. Broken weapons may be used as improvised weapons by the Guerilla, treating them as such.

Hi guys, just finished the first draft of my new homebrew class 'Guerilla', my first original class after working on Multiclass Archetypes and other sub-classes.

I'm looking for some input as to what could be done to improve or balance it, I -think- I've got it fairly balanced when drawn up against the newer martial based classes, but I don't want to presume that just because one class seems powerful in one regard they all must follow the same format.

A little blurb about this class; it's designed to be adaptive, self-sufficient, and a jack of all trades. Not so much in the sense it's a sneaky magic fighter, more so that it is capable of overcoming challenges with a little improvisation and cunning, having a broader skills set rather than something more refined. I've based the class mainly from other classes that offer similar playstyles, but do not fully realise the concept, mainly Rogue, Alchemist, Investigator, Brawler, Bard, Slayer and Ranger. I plan to release some archetypes alongside this class down the line, such as Arsonist, Mechanic and Ambush Artist.

So, here's the basic draft I created, anything constructive you have to offer would be most helpful, since this is a new challenge for me! (I do understand that the tables are a little hard to read, the forum doesn't seem to support tables or tab-spaces between text.)

Guerrilla; First Draft:

GUERRILLA
Whether a travelling nomad or a savage outlander, or perhaps a renegade living outside the law, Guerrillas are masters of survival and self-sufficiency. Their ability to improvise and adapt as the situation demands allows them a great degree of versatility, easily overcoming challenges where others would be defeated. The heart of their unpredictable nature lies in their ability to create unconventional weapons and equipment from their surroundings, and enhance their application through methods both crude and cunning. While they lack a magical affinity, they make up for their absence of arcana through use of special bombs that unleash devastating explosions that destroy and disrupt as effectively as any spell. Guerrillas are the perfect companion for situations where the odds aren't in your favor, turning even the most mundane of objects into a potent weapon and harsh environments into a devastating arena of combat.

Role: Guerrillas are best suited to situations that require versatility, both inside and outside of combat. Their ability to improvise in almost any situation allows them to be flexible combatants, and are able to drastically change the course of combat with their crudely made bombs and weaponry.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency:
A Guerrilla is proficient with all simple weapons, bombs and any improvised weapon. He is proficient with light armor and shields (except tower shields).

Improvised Arsenal:
A Guerrilla is a versatile combatant, utilising his surroundings to improvise weaponry to devastating effect. He gains Throw Anything and Catch Off-Guard as bonus feats, meaning that he no longer suffers penalty for using improvised weapons. In addition, improvised weapons gain a critical threat range of 19–20, with a critical multiplier of ×2. Improvised weapons wielded by the Guerrilla are considered to be both improvised and manufactured for the purposes of feats and abilities.
A Guerrilla also deals more damage with his improvised weapons than others, as shown on Table; Guerrilla. The improvised weapon damage values listed on that table are for Medium Guerrillas. A Small Guerrilla deals less damage than the amount given there with her improvised weapon attacks attacks, while a Large Guerrilla deals more damage; see the following table.

LEVEL SMALL LARGE
1-3 1d4 1d8
4-7 1d6 2d6
8-11 1d8 2d8
12-15 1d10 3d6
16-19 2d6 3d8
20 2d8 4d8

If an improvised weapon deals more base damage than that of the Guerrilla's Improvised Arsenal ability, he may substitute that damage instead. This must be declared before the Guerrilla makes an attack with such a weapon.

Survivalism (Ex):
Guerrilla's aren't just masters at improvising weapons in the field, but also at improvising other equipment. At 1st level, a Guerrilla may substitute her Survival skill in place of any Craft skill that creates player equipment, such as alchemy, bows, traps, weapons and armor. By doing so, he gains a proficiency bonus to Survival equal to his Guerrilla level when crafting items in this fashion.
However, items crafted this way are a crude comparison to properly designed wares, and are always produced as though affected by the Craft Shoddy Item feat. This ability does not confer a bonus to the Guerrilla's Craft skills, nor does it prevent a Guerrilla from selecting this feat through other means. Any weapons or armor fashioned this was count as being improvised for the sake of feats and abilities.
In addition, the competence bonus may be extended to any Survival skill check that requires gathering, cooking, setting up camp or otherwise creating produce, protection or shelter.

Bomb (Su):
Just as an Alchemist can create bombs from alchemical materials, a Guerrilla may fashion crude explosives from similar substances. The process of creating these bombs follow a more situational approach than academic, and thus use Wisdom in place of Intelligence. A Guerrilla can use a number of bombs each day equal to his class level + his Wisdom modifier. Bombs are unstable, and if not used in the round they are created, they degrade and become inert.
Drawing the components of, creating, and throwing a bomb requires a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Thrown bombs have a range of 20 feet and use the Throw Splash Weapon special attack. Bombs are considered weapons and can be selected using feats such as Point-Blank Shot and Weapon Focus. On a direct hit, a Guerrilla’s bomb inflicts 1d6 points of fire damage + additional damage equal to the Guerrilla's modifier. The damage of a Guerrilla's bomb increases by 1d6 points at every odd-numbered Guerrilla level (this bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit or by using feats such as Vital Strike). Splash damage from a bomb is always equal to the bomb’s minimum damage (so if the bomb would deal 2d6+4 points of fire damage on a direct hit, its splash damage would be 6 points of fire damage). Those caught in the splash damage can attempt a Reflex save for half damage. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the Guerrilla’s level + the Guerrilla's Wisdom modifier. although bombs are classified as improvised weapons, the Guerrilla does not apply the damage bonus from Improvised Arsenal to any bomb attacks.

Trapfinding (Ex):
A Guerrilla adds 1/2 his level to Perception skill checks made to locate traps and to Disable Device checks (minimum 1). A Guerrilla can use Disable Device to disarm magical traps.

Guerrilla Tricks:
As a Guerrilla advances, he learns new tricks that expand his versatility. At 2nd level, and every 2nd level thereafter, a Guerrilla may select one Guerrilla Trick from the pool below. Except where otherwise noted, each Guerrilla Trick can only be selected once.

- Bomb Discovery: The Guerrilla may select any Alchemist Discovery that affects bombs, treating his Guerrilla level as his Alchemist level. This Trick can be taken multiple times

- Rogue Talent: The Guerrilla may select any Rogue Talent (except those that affect Rogue/Ninja-specific abilities), treating his Guerrilla level as his Rogue level. This trick can be taken multiple times.

- Ranger Trap: (prerequisite: Level 4) The Guerrilla gains the Learn Ranger Trap feat, expending one of his daily allotments of bombs to create it. Ranger traps created this way may use the Improvised Arsenal damage values in place of their standard damage values. This Trick can be taken multiple times

- Weather-Worn: (prerequisite: Level 4) The Guerrilla no longer suffers ill effects of hot or cold climates, as though under the effects of the Endure Elements spell.

- Sabotage: The Guerrilla may apply the effects of Trapfinding to other mechanical objects, gaining a bonus to Knowledge (Engineering) in addition Disable Device.

- Honed Weaponry: The Guerrilla may cast the Refine Improvised Weapon, Desperate Weapon and Disguise weapon spells as spell-like abilities a number of times per day equal to 2 + his Wisdom Modifier

- Jury-Rigging: You may grant Survivalism's proficiency bonus to the Knowledge: (Engineering) skill checks to create objects in addiiton to craft skills

- Makeshift Munitionist: You gain Gunsmithing as a bonus feat, and may use your Survivalism skill to craft firearms and their ammunition.

- Bonus Feat: You may select from the following pool of feats in place of a Trick; Improvised Weapon Mastery, Improvised Defense, Torch Fighter, Equipment Trick, Improvisational Healer, Field Repair, Chairbreaker, Nature's Weapons, Tool Optimiser, Two-Weapon Drunkard Combat, Improved Dirty Trick, Quick Dirty Trick, Dirty Trick Master, Greater Dirty Trick, Underhanded Teamwork, Improved Underhanded Teamwork and Mud in Your Eye. The Guerrilla must have the Base Attack Bonus and any feats listed here as requirements of gaining the feat, he may otherwise choose them without meeting any other prerequisites.

- Track: The Guerrilla gains the Ranger's Track Ability, using his Guerrilla level in place of his Ranger level.

- Handy: You may grant Survivalism's proficiency bonus to any Profession skill checks to create objects in addition to craft skills.

Crude Combatant (Ex):
At 2nd level, the Guerrilla learns how to effectively fight dirty. He adds his Dexterity modifier in addition to his Strength modifier when calculating his Combat Manuever Bonus for Dirty Tricks.

Swift Assembly (Ex):
At 3rd level, a Guerrilla can create shoddy items with astounding speed. It takes a Guerrilla half the normal amount of time to create shoddy items with his Survivalism ability.

Trap Sense (Ex):
At 3rd level, a Guerrilla gains an intuitive sense that alerts him to danger from traps, granting him a +1 bonus on Reflex saving throws to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks by traps. At 7th level and every 3 levels thereafter, these bonuses increase by 1 (to a maximum of +6 at 18th level).

Endurance:
A Guerrilla gains Endurance as a bonus feat at 4th level.

Clever Construction (Ex):
At 5th level, the Guerrilla learns how to adapt and improve his improvised weapons to better challenge the variety of foes he may face. He gains the ability to add one weapon modification to his improvised weapons, so long it replicates the base weapon required in the modification's prerequisites. The weapon does not change from simple to martial, nor martial to exotic when modified as base weapons do.
At 9th level, he may also sacrifice one of his bombs to give his improvised weapon the flaming special ability for a number of minutes equal to his Guerrilla level, or the flaming burst special ability for a number of rounds equal to his Guerrilla level. If a Guerrilla has any bomb discoveries that alter his bomb's energy, he may instead replicate a matching special ability (Acid Bomb granting Corrosive/Corrosive Burst, Forst Bomb granting Frost/Icy Burst, etc.)
At 13th level, his improvised weapons are treated as cold iron and silver for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
At 17th level, his improvised weapons are treated as adamantine for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.

Advanced Tricks:
At 10th level, and every two levels thereafter, a Guerilla can select an Advanced Trick in place of a Guerrilla Trick. Unless otherwise noted, a Guerrilla cannot select an individual Trick more than once.

- Advanced Talents: The Guerrilla may select a Talent from the list of Advanced Rogue Talents (except those that affect Rogue/Ninja specific abilities), treating his Guerrilla level as his Rogue level.

- Swift Tracker: (Prerequisite; Track) The Guerrilla gains the Swift Tracker ability of Rangers, using his Guerrilla level in place of his Ranger level.

- Lanch Trap: (Prerequisite; Ranger Trap) A Guerrilla can affix a magical ranger trap to an arrow, crossbow bolt, or thrown weapon, allowing him to set the trap remotely or use it as a direct attack. Attaching the trap to the projectile is part of the action of creating or setting a new trap. The trapped projectile is fired or thrown in the normal manner. If fired at a square, the trap is treated as if the Guerrilla had set the trap in that square, except the DC is 5 lower than normal. If fired at a creature, the target takes damage from the ranged weapon and is treated as if it had triggered the trap (saving throw applies, if any). The attack has a maximum range of 60 feet, and range increments apply to the attack roll. The duration of the trapped projectile starts from when it is created, not from when it is used.

- Woodland Stride: Move through natural undergrowth at normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment.

- Guerrilla Camouflage: (Prerequisite; Terrain Mastery Rogue Talent) Hide in any of your favored terrains, even without cover or concealment.

- Artificer: You may apply your Survivalism ability to any Crafting Feats, such as Craft Wand and Craft Construct.

- Seasonal Sage: (Prerequisite; Weather-Worn) For a number of hours per day equal to your Wisdom modifier, you may extend your Weather-Worn Trick to affect allies as if using Communal Endure Elements.

Jack of All Trades (Ex):
At 11th level, the Guerilla can use any skill, even if the skill normally requires him to be trained. At 16th level, the Guerrilla considers all skills to be class skills. At 19th level, the Guerrilla can take 10 on any skill check, even if it is not normally allowed.

Master Survivalist:
At 20th level, a Guerrilla becomes a master of self-sufficiency and survival. Whenever a Guerrilla uses his Survivalism ability, he is no longer forced to apply the Craft Shoddy Item feat to his creations (unless he chooses to), though they retain all the benefits of being improvised.
In addition, whenever a Guerrilla makes an attack with an improvised weapon or bomb, he may perform a Dirty Trick against his foe as a free action once per turn.

Glad to see this is still going on, or more that it started back up again, perhaps I can jump in and offer a few ideas?

Also, given how the site is down is there a chance anyone might be able to get me the MCA that I come up with the concept for before? They're not all in the PDF files provided.

Welcome back Jonathan!

Ideas are always welcome, the floor is open to any new ideas since we're currently in a state of limbo in regards to feedback.

If there's something specific you're looking for, and it doesn't appear to be in the MCA PDFs, you could try searching through the dump.

The dump is a little harder to navigate, and a little hard to read with the formatting, but if something existed on the MCAwiki it should be there, if not, it was likely implemented too late to be added to the wiki or lost when the wiki closed.

Hey, just checking in to let you know the wiki is down. Apparently they don't do free non educational wikis anymore.

Hi Alick,

Our MCA Wiki has been down for some time now, and we are in the process of moving all our collected works over to the pathfinder community, you can find us here;

http://www.pathfindercommunity.net/classes/multiclass-archetypes

until everything is transferred, you can access our work in PDF format (look for PDFs 'Critiques' for the full works)

Welcome to the 11th Multiclass Archetypes thread! Elghinn Lightbringer is stepping down from his role of thread moderator and the wikipedia page has been closed and it's contents moved to the PF community site. Previous work can still be found via the links below;

and for PDF format of all collected work CLICK HERE

I'll be taking over the moderation of this thread in Elghinn's stead, but don't think of me as the authority on what passes for a finalized class, collaboration is encouraged by all participants! I'll be working alongside the other contributors on the Pathfinder Community in order to send functioning classes over to be posted for all to see and use alongside the collective works already made.

As always, one or two ideas will be worked on at a time, and it's encouraged that classes be made from combinations that have not yet been used. I'll also encourage use of the Hybrid and Occult classes, as there are few MCAs using the material.

Since this time we have no posting order, the order will go off first come first served to start, and I'll create a list as more people present ideas that I'll post up every now and again. I'd ask that an outline of classes are posted first, and then when we're ready to go we'll ask for the whole idea.

So! If anyone has any ideas to offer up, go ahead!
