I'm starting to think about unexpected stuff. No one expected Druids or Rangers to be one of the focuses of Dark Archive, or Monks to get as much as they did in Secrets of Magic (especially considering it was stances and not spells).

So... planar thaumaturge things? Elemental fighter feats? Metal or Wood oracles? Elemental bard songs? A planar psychic?

Metal oracles exploring the riddle of steel...

min/maxing a character concept like "Fire Mage" or "Guy who fights in cat form" or "Only uses greatswords and is a fighter" or something else.

Instead of, for example from 5e, the classic Fighter with Sentinal and Greatweapon Fighter with a Polearm. I don't like Polearms visually and they almost never fit my preferred aesthetic. Maybe if i'm playing some sort of pikeman, or jouster on a mount, but I don't want to be a fighter in full plate walking around with a Polearm. I like Greataxes for Orcs and Dwarves and Greatswords for Humans and Aasimer and such. Paladins also get Greathammers because World of Warcraft.

Maybe it's that I am a recent convert from 5e but all the recent builds I have been noodling around with are polearm based.....fighter with polearm...champion(paladin)with polearm...giant instinct barbarian with polearm....monk with bo staff. "Area control....need to get big....cleric archetype...must worship Iomedae."

The OGL debacle served as a good excuse for me to learn more about Pathfinder 2e, which was something I had wanted to try anyway. This bundle is absolutely wonderful. I picked it up and then also got the Advanced Player's Guide directly from Paizo. So I now own an enormous amount of content for $45.
