GenCon Online PF2 announcements / rumours so far

[Gorbacz]

Please add anything I missed.

2021 GenCon hardcover is Secrets of Magic, featuring Magus and Summoner. Yep, it's happening.

PF2 second round of errata is to drop promptly after GenCon.

Already preparing my sacrifices to Haagenti in the hopes of getting some patches for the Alchemist.

God damn, the two classes I wanted most! I'm HYPED. Any word on an autumn playtest like the APG classes?

Edit: I had no idea that would be censored, huh. Next time I'll say an Inner Sea god's name in vain. Probably Abadar.

Yes, September 7th through October 14th 18th.

According to Jason Bulmahn, the errata coming next week has things to "make Bulk easier to manage," and was described as "not substantial."

That makes me think the big, big, BIG errata update promised at PaizoCon probably hit some snags, and that we'll be getting only a small piecemeal part of it next week, with the rest coming later.

I really hope I am wrong, but I'm gonna adjust my expectations now so I'm not disappointed when they talk about it on Saturday.

Stunned we're seeing Summoner so early. I don't envy them trying to balance that action economy.

So when do we get the Inquisitor? I worry more about that one than Summoner.

The prevailing theory is that it'll be a Class Archetype for Cleric.

It seems more than plausible as a doctrine as well, if we don't get it as a full class.

No idea. But I'd imagine if there were any more cases like the Cavalier or the Vigilante in this upcoming book, they'll tell us on Saturday during the Q&A section. We need to milk as much info as we can, given Erik Mona had to rush through the announcement today, and the announcement Q&A refused to answer until Saturday.

Have literally just set an alarm on my phone for September 7th when the Magus playtest starts.

Seems like a big waste to me. I think there's plenty of thematic and mechanical distinction to the inquisitor to warrant its own class.
