Grand Bazaar - Captivator Archtype - pg 120


Rules Discussion


So there seem to be several problems with this archtype which need errata.
1. The dedication feat is stated to be level 4, but the next feat (basic captivator spellcasting) is also level 4. As the dedication feat gives cantrips, I think it should be level 2 to be in line with other spellcasting archtypes and to make sense of the next feat being level 4
2. The third feat in the progression (captivating intensity) is stated to be available at level 6, but at that level it makes no sense! It allows you to cast all the spells you gained from basic captivator spellcasting twice (except the two highest level spells). But under basic captivator spellcasting, you would only have a 1st and a 2nd level captivator spell, so you would gain nothing taking the captivating intensity feat at level 6!. It seems to me that perhaps the captivating intensity feat ought to be level 8
Has there been an official errata to deal with this?

Not that I know of. Though you can stalk the FAQ page and hope for the best. Or trawl through YouTube in the hopes that a game dev posts something there - though that is not really considered official errata.

There's a thread on the Paizo boards to report any issues for errata, and unlike the Rulebook line, the Lost Omens books have gotten errata posted before a second printing was done. So chances are, if you post your noted issues there, it'll be addressed as soon as they can.
