So I recently acquired a few new pathfinder books, namely the ones listed above in the thread title, and as I skimmed through them I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed with how psychic magic worked for Occult adventures.

Fluff wise the book is great the the classes seem interesting, though admittedly I am still reading through it, but having obtained the Occult bestiary first and reading how the psychic magic worked for certain monsters with the pool of total energy used to cast working more akin to a power point pool from Ultimate Psionics, I was excited for that to be how the new classes worked. It seems though unless I haven't found the subsystem yet that they work like any other casting class on how their spells work. Personally I found this a little disappointing that there is a new system for monsters to cast but not players.

Now I know this is just my opinion but does anyone know if there are plans in the works to be able to use this system of psychic magic for the occult classes or any suggestions on how to modify it to fit the current rules? Any help is appreciated.


Hi everyone,

I had a curiosity question on the Signifer. If it has been answered elsewhere please direct me to it, I skimmed a quick forum search but didn't see anything.

Now I know the Signifer lets you stack inquisitor/cleric/oracle levels for the purpose of inquisitions/domains/mysteries respectively with the warrior priest feat (which you could call a feat tax but you need it for the class anyways) and you also can advance your arcane bonded object if a wizard. But my question is, why not also allow arcane school powers and bloodlines to stack? I don't think it would make them particularly overpowered since if I understand it correctly you don't gain new abilities, the ones you have just get stronger.

I have a player who is considering a fighter/sorcerer/signifer and I was going to allow the levels to stack for bloodline powers he already has. If anyone has any advice on this matter or why they levels don't already stack that'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!


Hi all. I'm currently about to join in on a carrion crown game at the beginning of book 4 (all they've done so far in the fight against the assassin/ghouls in the barn). I was considering trying a magus but i wanted the character to feel a little more interesting. So i was considering trying a Magus7/cleric2 (so i can get medium armor from the magus) to start as they are 9th level, taking cleric 3rd level for 10th then going straight into mystic theurge. The goal is for him to be 3/5 caster 2/5 melee with a more offense tone.

So basically I was wondering if anyone had any advice on a good race, feat build, god, gear setup....or even if the idea was worth trying at all. So far all i was thinking was Samsaran for race for the +2 int/wis but i have anything paizo published at my disposal. Anyway any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
