The inventor is cool

[siegfriedliner]

So the invetor is in my opinion my favourite non-core class intdouced so far worts and all. It has a very cool nieche abilities and flavour its very steam/gem punk and I love it.

But there does seem one thing I would like to see, though I imagine it would be nearly impossible to balance so I am not getting my hopes up.

That would be the ability to create/invent short term wacky inventions that do something useful once and then promptly explode in your face.

So if you could do something that feels like that (but is in fact a balanced and sensible game mechanic) that would be grand.

As noted in the survey, those are coming in the final version (likely an optional feat situation that gives you a few of them each day), but wanted to playtest the chassis without introducing all the variables that a bunch of gadgets would add.

Ngl, the inventor is basically everything I wanted the alchemist to be. It's probably going to become my new go to favorite class

Super Cool

I like the inventor a lot more than I was expecting to, I am just hung up on "the options to make the character I want to make" are not in the playtest so I need to somehow abandon that idea and do something else in order to actually playtest it.

I actually pushed for a long time for a steampunk book (since at least 2014) in PF1. I don't know how to express how ecstatic I am about it.

I am also excited about the gadgets.
