Archetypes based on 1st Edition Prestige Classes?


Pathfinder Second Edition General Discussion

Anyone wanting too see any archetypes based on 1st edition prestige classes? I honestly wouldn't mind seeing Heritor Knight or Winter Witch make a return. ^^


There's already quite a few in the game, my personal wish from those that we don't have in 2e would be for them to remake the Aspis Agent and the Tattooed Mystic.

Scarab Sages

I think most of them are already in the game or else would overlap (mechanically or thematically) pre-existing classes or archetypes.


I'd like to see the outsider-aligned prestige classes make a comeback. Mystery Cultist, Proctor, Diabolist, Souldrinker, and Demoniac. Probably others in the same mold I'm forgetting.

Cognates

Master Chymist would be fun. I'd quite like an alchemist that's much more down-and-dirty.

I'd imagine you'd trade some versitle vials for the ability to transform into your alternate form which has true martial scaling on its melee attacks. (Maybe even fighter if they want to get real spicy).

I'm sure there would be more to it, obviously the transformed state would need some downside to it, perhaps the loss/restriction of quick alchemy so you're incentivised to swap in and out.


I am hoping for the Winter Witch.
Back in 1e we had the Winter Themed Patron, The Winter Witch Class Archtype and the Winter Witch Prestige Classs.

In 2e we have the Winter Themed Patron: Silence in Snow but I would love a Witch Class Archtype that combines the class archetype and the prestige class.

I did love the ability of the 1e Winter Witch prestige class to deal cold damage to beings normally immune to it. My renegade Jadwiga Winter Witch really surprised (and enraged) a few Frost Giants as well as a Night Hag with that ability! ^^

YASSSS!!!!

THAT WAS MY FAVORITE TOO!!


Closest to that in 2e is a, Silence in Snow Witch with free archetype into the Gelid Shard artifact archetype.
