Need Help Using Legacy Content in Pathbuilder2e


Product Discussion


I am creating a new character for a new Pathfinder 2e campaign using Pathbuilder2e. The campaign is using the most recent Pathfinder 2e rules, but I got DM permission to use on of the original Pathfinder spell schools in place of the remastered spell schools. I am attempting to select the Conjurer subclass, but even after enabling the core rulebook in the character options this option does not appear. It also does not appear if I create a new character and enable legacy content under the new character creation options. The only way I can currently create a conjurer is if I disable the remastered rules entirely upon character creation.

When researching this problem I came across repeated mentions of a "enable legacy feat/options" toggle that is supposed to be found under either character options or the options presented during character creation. The problem is I cannot find this option anywhere! If this is the only problem, I would greatly appreciate if someone would point out where it is located. Otherwise, can you please verify that I can run a Conjurer alongside the remastered ruleset, and if so, how to go about doing this.

Thank you for your time and help.


It looks like the way Pathbuilder is handling this is that the Wizard class itself is the remaster version. So if you create the character with remaster rules on, you get a remaster wizard and can't pick the old school options. As you noticed if you make a non-remaster character you can do it.

I tried "allow outdated CRB and APG", which you'd think is what would do it and is on the new character screen, but that didn't change anything.

I don't see an obvious way around that in Pathbuilder, it looks like internally classic/remaster Wizards are just not the same so unlike feats, the school choices simply don't mix.
