Bringing this up again since the ARG presents a lot of new archetypes with the kinds of abilities listed above. And it makes even less since for these since you could run into Race x grabbing Race y's archetype abilities.


Bump


Any news on this possibly?

Grand Lodge

No, nothing.


I guess after a month of weekly bumps this will be it if you haven't hit FAQ please do so before this vanishs to the archives possibly forever.

Grand Lodge

Done.


Lol figurered you had already hit it since you were in here to begin with.

Grand Lodge

I did. I just wanted to reassure you, and bump the thread.


Shameless bumb in light of the hopefully return of the weekly FAQ blog.


I really think in general as far as eldritch heritage goes the only one where the whole question matters is sylvan. As I recall all the others modify abilities you could take anyways. But sylvan requires giving up a power you basically do not have.

For a home game the decision is easy. Are they their own bloodlines.

If you feel yes then they are valid choices, but many are completely unusable as they dont have Lvl 1 and 3 powers.

If you feel, no. Then they are archetypes and there is not a lot to discuss.

Personally i feel they are an archetype and not selectable. But balance wise dont really have an issue with it as long as the power being swapped is a lvl 1 3 9 ability etc.

I think in general sylvan supports the archetype idea, its also the one i feel isnt a reasonable choice for eldritch heritage.


I FAQ'd it the first time around, but I will add this. The sorcerer should not need an archtype to do this. They should just be additional bloodlines much like the oracle gets new mysteries.


The difference is probably that the wild blood ones aren't full bloodlines but mods to existing ones. If bloodline powers were chosen like oracles revalations then they would probably would have just added the abilities to the existing bloodlines.

I'm not sure what you mean. Sorerers get new bloodlines all the time.

I still don't think an archetype should be needed for the variant bloodlines. :)


Well as to that I agree on the premise that they could have done like the specialized wizard schools and just said if your a draconic sorcerer you can take these abilities instead.

In my opinion they may have done it for the purpose of making sorcerer only.
