pathfinder 1e Fully completed class guides or curated Full completed updated class guide list


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


i have a question and ive come seeking answers, as the title states. where do i find this list of Curated and fully completed Guides for Pathfinder 1e classes? with full up-to-date and fully completed information on as many Archetypes as possible or just hitting upon the staple/main stay information. over 7 years, of playing off and on, I've only ever managed to find either 1 of 3 things. a Reddit post of someones singular post for something with barely any info. 2) ZENITH guides with SEVERE lack of completed guides or updated info. or 3) Paizo forum posts with a huge amount of posts. and useless info where people just get off topic or talk rules info or why X thing is good/bad over someones opinion.

so my question TLDR is, Where are all these completed/updated guides at, with a good curated list of what spells/feats/traits/spells/magic items to take for X class for X build path for X reason. and what is Top tier and not Top tier based upon Factors.

ANY information on where to find these things would be great, im so sick of having to scrub through SRd/AON and its MASSIVE selection of feats and reading them, in maybe finding 1 specific feat for my builds which may be useful. or for building a class ive never tried before/archetype ive never tried and wanna have a good ground floor basis to go off of.


They don't exist.

People need to make such guides, and unless they have an interest in a given class (archetype), it doesn't get written. What has usually winds up on Broken Zenith's Guide to the Guides.

As to what is available, I think the SRD does a reasonable job of showing archetype incompatibilities, and linking to related stuff.

If you're asking about archetypes in particular there's a guide for that. I had a hand in it; I think it's good. It doesn't cover feats etc. as well, it was a massive job as is.

If you've got a question about some build or you're asking for advice on feats, ask the question in the advice forum. We're happy to help.


well i guess i could do thatr i just didnt want to make a bunch of singular question forum posts and clog up the forum with them. and i dont wanna type out a College level Essay which is 4 pages long asking every question i need answered when i dont know the question until 40 mins later.

so you see why id like a guide/list/curated information so i didnt need to keep coming back to a forum to ask singular questions or paragraph long Text walls.

it sucks that things of what i asked for dont exist..its been like a decade P1e has been around youd think someone wouldve done something of this nature beyond the SRD/or Archives.


It took several people five years to make that archetype guide. Extending it to cover every likely build would have taken twice as long again, at least. No one has that kind of time or motivation on the subject.

Well, there's RPGBot's guides, but they're low quality, to put it politely.


guess ill just have to be "That guy" who makes a ton of single question posts or text walls and just be annoying then. :/ cause im sorta at a loss for what to do aside from just the minimally helpful resources.


I would say read up on the zenith class guide (which probably wont be very up to date), then check out the archetype guide for the relevant class (which IS up to date), and after that questions should be reasonable to post.
