Liberty's Edge

So I have a couple of questions.

1) Is Chosing the archetype the same as a PC in PFS? Like they can get it as long as their lvl has not went past the first change of the archetype.

Where levels are referenced in archetype descriptions, they refer to the class level of the PC master in whichever class grants the companion or familiar as a class feature.

that was said on the first paragraph, last sentence on pg 20.

2)In PFS, At 6th lvl I'm going to be Cavalier 4/ fighter 2, I will be getting the Horse master feat and then go straight fighter after. Will my AC still gain levels in the archetype because I have Horse master feat even tho my class that grants the AC class feature will only be at lvl 4? Or will the AC be stuck at lvl 4 in that archetype?


no, if it is a pfs character, you will need to get a new animal companion to get an archetype for it.


i don't believe the archetype cares about actual class levels (of companion granting class) at all, the effective druid level from all granting classes combined + other modifiers should be good enough.

If I have to get my wolf killed then that sucks. Is it still the same when a AC dies in a home game and PFS?
If it is then timeing is importaint. You dont want your AC to die and wait 3 sessions to lvl so it will gain his abilities.
Right now I'm 1 session away from lvl to 5. Will durring that 1 session my wolf dies, do have to wait 3 more sessions to lvl for my new wolf to get the link and evasion?
