So lets move onto a different topic whats everyone most excited about (those who havent gotten the pdf yet)
I think the archetypes and feats. Qinggong monk!

As soon as I get my PDF on the 18th, I'm going to be all over the Alchemist Archetypes. Also, although I most likely won't play a regular Magus, I very well may play a Spellblade or Staff Magus.
you won't be disappointed. Some of the archetypes are really cool as are the new discoveries. I was honestly a bit meh on the alchemist, I like it a lot more now. :)
ME WANTS HEX CRAFTER
and I'm very curious about the magis subsystems. Very, very curious.
I'd like one 1st level spell that makes me as happy as Flash/Bang did (Freeport Companion - Pathfinder Edition)...

I liked the Alchemist archetypes quite a bit myself, but the Oracle and Witch ones really got my attention. I'm optimistic about the Magus and it's archetypes, Bladebound and Hexcrafter both jumped out at me.
Your words! Yes! More more!
...and if somebody doesn't mind telling me: what is the qinggong monk's shtick? I have been having a hard time picturing what he's all about.
As soon as I get my PDF on the 18th, I'm going to be all over the Alchemist Archetypes.
This is something I'm especially looking forward to, especially archetypes that might replace Mutagen with something I'd be more interested in actually using.
But I'm excited about nearly everything about this book. New Spells (especially for the Cleric/Oracle), the new Monk archetype, new discoveries, Oracle curses, mysteries, magic items (hoping for better item creation rules?), feats, and more.
I can't wait! But I guess I'll be waiting a while anyway since I ordered from Amazon. =P

Might I get a small taste of the discoveries? I was specifically wondering about the simulacrum discoveries mentioned in the Magic Archetypes blog, as well as parasitic twin.
I am really exited about this book, especially new Sorcerer bloodlines, Oracle Mysteries/revelations, spells, feats, and archtypes(sorcerer, oracle, bard, druid, witch, and monk inparticularly)

The simulacrum works similar to the spell of the same name. The parasitic twin is something to add onto the vestigial limbs discovery. Sometimes spells that would effect the mind of the alchemist effect the twin instead, leaving the alchemist to stay in control but suffers a bit for it.
Alchemist zombie and sunlight bomb I think are my two favorite of the new ones.

You've proven it to me. These next 9 days are going to be some of the longest I've had in a long time.

@Dark_Mistress Any more juicy tidbits? Even a hint would be greatly appreciated. I need my fix. :pThere is something like 25 new discoveries and 8 new archetypes. I am sure no one wants to hear about the new bard masterpieces abilities.
I want to hear about them![/sarcasm]
(Not much of a bard player myself)

I kneel before you and wash your feet with unholy water. Please, Dark Mistress, tell me about the new bard materpiece abilities.
What are the new sorcerer bloodlines?
What are the new Oracle mysteries?
Anything you can tell us about the new monk archtype please
Is the bard arcgtype "song healer" any good?
Are there any feats that are sorcerer, oracle, and/or witch only?
How does the new sorcerer archtypes work?
Are the new discoveries all that powerful or are they balanced?

You give up something to learn them. Either a feat or a spell of a certain level. A example.
The Quickening Pulse - you give up a feat or a 3rd level spell known. Once learned you can preform this and it makes enemies in 30 ft quicken their beating heart. Each round you play it, they must make a save or take 1d6 dmg as they sweat blood.
Dark_Mistress, does anybody ever tell you how incredibly sexy you are when you have us slave mortals begging before your feet for even the tiniest morsel of your dark forbidden knowledge?

1) What are the new sorcerer bloodlines?
2) What are the new Oracle mysteries?
3) Anything you can tell us about the new monk archtype please
4) Is the bard arcgtype "song healer" any good?
5) Are there any feats that are sorcerer, oracle, and/or witch only?
6) How does the new sorcerer archtypes work?
7) Are the new discoveries all that powerful or are they balanced?
Well I don't want to tell everything about the book but I will give you some tidbits.
1) There is 7 new bloodlines
2) There is 5 new mysteries.
3) The only monk archetype gives them access to Ki powers which functions somewhat like supernatural abilities and their is a lot of them.
4) Songhealer can increase how effective other peoples spells, scrolls, wands etc are for healing if he is higher level. He also gets two abilities one lets him do a performance that works like the spell heal and another that raises the dead. Is it good? depends on your point of view I guess.
5) Yes some of the feats are class specific. Just skimming the feat list I seen 1 Sorc, 3 Oracle, 5 Witch class only feats, though they are tied to bloodline, mystery or hexes so take it with a grain of salt when I say class only.
6) The two archetypes for Sorc combine bloodlines, giving some benefits from each blood line.
7) At first glance they seem on par, but keep in mind I have not read the book. Just been skimming it.
Can't wait to get my hardcopy of this book. I wonder when it ships?
Have you found a favorite feat that you just know will become a staple for your characters?

All the time or they don't get to savor the taste of Sweet Sting.Dark_Mistress, does anybody ever tell you how incredibly sexy you are when you have us slave mortals begging before your feet for even the tiniest morsel of your dark forbidden knowledge?
You are incredibly benevolent, and I thank you for sending forth your unholy words of awesomeness.
Edit: Change the word "benevolent" to "malevolent" whenever you feel the need. I'm not yet sure how you tend to operate.
Oh sexy, Dark Mistress, I beseech thee one question of mine: are there prestige classes? If so, what are they?

I have only two more questions. Does the Reanimator Archetype replace bombs, and if so, with what?
Edit: The only reason I ask is because of some fluff that would work better for a Kingmaker character of mine. However, bombs are integral to my character's backstory, so if they are replaced, I will not even ask if I may update my character.
I cannot wait to see what the new witch patrons are, as well as new familiar options. Anyone care to reveal a few, just to keep me satisfied until I can get the book?

I'm so glad someone else had the same reaction as me to the guyver!

The damage dice get reduced by one (d6 => d4) on the Reanimator's bombs. He gets to add undead creation spells to his formula list.

Hrm... In that case , I'll have to think it over. Interesting, very interesting.
Edit: No, I don't believe that will work for this particular character, but it is definitely an avenue I'd like to pursue with a character or two.
There are a dozen new familiars, including the iconic goat!
You just made my life exponentially better.
Thank you Dark_mistress for the info.
Song healer sounds awesome
Summoner achtype that can make the guyver...Cool
Are there any bloodlines that are "Law", Based on any creature(s) from the Beastairy II, or based on a concept(music, life elemtal, etc.)and/or character class(witch, bard, druid,etc.)?
Like the sound of the monk one as well.
