I've finished the Accursed Halls for PFS and here's my feedback.
PROs
- Scouting is the best of any class and the fact it needs to be within a certain range limits abuse. Incorporeal can't set off traps or see hidden creatures. Creatures never came out of hiding unless it sees the phantom.
- Bonded senses is cool but see CONs
- Thematically it's a fun class to play and I have to admit starting to feel a little different than a summoner since you don't focus on a fighting Eidolon
CONs
- Bonded senses is very limited in duration; i.e. rounds per day. A minute per level might be more reasonable
- Not much to do except scout for first few levels, as Phantom is so weak of a fighter. Only attack it can have is a weak slam until you can afford ghost touch. My main character doesn't really have any useful spells to fight with either.
- My phantom was just a weak tank against a Shadow. He stands no chance against any mob with DR.
