Great! So this book will bring us the Monk (martial artist), Druid (nature priest), Barbarian (savage warrior) and the Bard (Troubadour) earlier than PHB2? Awesome! When does it come out?

 

[GMforPowergamers]

this looks great, infact I already pre ordered it, but now I see a few things...

is it just me or does spellbinder not have enough powers for a full class???
and no paragon paths????

Well, here's the deal with the spellbinder:

If you go back to 1E--which was my own source material, of course--what you had was a class that basically functioned exactly as a wizard, but with a different selection of spells. I didn't want to make my own version exactly like that, but some amount of overlap was inescapable.

In a way, then, the spellbinder is almost a "sub-class." That doesn't mean that it's any less playable than the others. If you choose to play one, you have a full range of choices and options. But, over the course of 2nd and 3rd editions, most of the spells that made the illusionist what it was in 1E were given to other classes. So when I sat down to design a 4E illusionist-equivalent, I realized that the majority of the spells I wanted to give it in 4E--not all, but most--either WotC had already given to the wizard, or I myself had already given to my bard-equivalent, the troubador.

This left me with two problems, since

A) There's only so many ways you can do illusion spells and still have them feel like illusions, and

B) I wanted this to feel like the 1E illusionist class in many respects, not like a brand new concept that happened to have some illusions.

So ultimately, to make the class work, it had to borrow a lot of its spells from the wizard and troubador (and, here and there, the warlock). Thus, because it's the only class in the game thus far not to have an entirely unique spell list--it has some unique powers of its own, don't worry, but as I said, many are borrowed--it didn't require nearly as much space.

Similarly, once I'd decided to make it a sub-class, I took another look at the troubador and wizard paragon paths, and realized that some of them fit the spellbinder just as well as they did their original classes, and I've made notes to that effect in the text.

Take a look when the book's out, and I think you'll be happy with it; it's got less page count than the others, but I don't think it's any less viable.

btw the book is out the 1st of october, you can preordet it just now

Yeah I am so looking forward to this, I just love the bard! I don't care that it sucks but I really enjoy breaking moulds with non-stereotypical characters

So having an official WotC bard and a troubadour as well is good! Pre-ordered for the long trip to NZ
