Hi everyone!
After playtesting PF2 (and finishing our Kingmaker campaign), my friends and I are finally about to play PF2 "final" version. I've decided to play a Druid, and, upon reading the Specialized Animal Companions rule here, I got confused: "Most animal companions can have only one specialization.", because on the Druid feat, it's said that it can be taken up to 3 times.
Which one is the correct one?
Based on what I've read so far, it seems to be the Druid feat...
Thanks a lot in advance,
They are both correct. The general rule is that animal companions can only have one specialization. The druid feat bypasses the general rule and allows your animal companion to have three specializations if you decide to take the feat multiple times.
Thanks a lot!
It does make sense.
If you want to get around this rule. Take the Beastmaster feats instead of the Ranger feats. The level 14 Specialized Beastmaster Companion also doesn't have this limitation. It is the same number of feats.
But to give your companion(s) the benefit of Hunters edge, you also need to give yourself a second animal companion via the base Ranger Animal Companion feat. This is not always necessary depending of your edge.
Most of the rest of the ranger animal companion feats work fine with BeastMaster animal companions.
Actually, I wasn't. I just wanted to understand the rule correctly.
My build rely mainly on throwing big fireball and such, while riding my pets. He's a secondary feature. ^^
