Advanced Classes Guide - What would you like to see


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


As the subject says, I'll start:

Arcanist: He seems pretty solid to me.

Bloodrager: I'd like to see HD go to D12's. I always feel like I'm teetering on deaths door with those D10's. Maybe a crossblooded archetype would be cool.

I'd also like to see the class "work" with Dragon Disciple. By my estimate it should progress rage/day and bloodline powers instead of advancing the sorcerers bloodline as written, as that sucks and a lot of that stuff doesn't stack.

Brawler: I'm not that excited about this class in general. It seems fine mechanically, I just have almost no interest in it. Not sure what they can do about that for me.

Hunter: They have got to make the AC better. Right now a Hunters AC is no match for a half-elf/aasmir Oracles FCB pet...just not even close. Since thats kind of the classes defining feature it seems pretty lame right now.

Investigator: The class I wanted to love but Paizo proves their hatred for rogues is so deep, even rogueish type characters must suck. Class needs a total makeover IMO.

Shaman: I fricking love this class. Lots of great synergy and I can't wait to see the final. Love the spell list with the additional spells too. The only thing that comes to mind for me is a Tattooed Shaman.

Skald: I also like this class. Not sure what type of archetypes would be cool. It certainly needs Bulls strength and Mass Bulls strength added to its spell list! I mean seriously guys! What an oversight!

Slayer: This class is really solid mechanically, so maybe some archetypes that make it even more roguish, so we can totally eliminate the rogue class except for dipping!

Swashbuckler: I really REALLY want to see a knife throwing archetype. A buckler and weapon one would be great too.

But what I really want to see here more than anything is a feat that allows you to get some weapon besides a scimitar Dex to damage! Seriously hate that. Ran two tables in a row for PFS with different players or characters, one everyone who used a weapon was scimitars and the next half the party did! It makes me sick! Please Paizo...I beg you...this is ridiculous!

Warpriest: Make a non-cha based archetype so I can play one with my favorite race, DWARVES! Otherwise this class seems to be one of the best in the books and is very solid.

So what would you like to see! Lets tell the Devs and hopefully they take what we say into consideration:)


I think the book already went off to the printer...so at this point they are not going to take anything into consideration, at least for this book.

That's not the fault of the Hunter, but the fault of overpowered FCB. The Hunter's animal companion was already the best one out of the box due to the permanent boosts and the teamwork feats, but a tighter integration would be cool.
