Pathfinder 1E Advanced Class Guide

[gyor]

I was just reading about it on the Paizo blog and it sounds interesting.

Here is my guesses about th new classes.

Bloodrager, Raging and Bloodline abilities with some spells.

Warpriest -Cleric and Fight, will probably be the Paladin for anyone who is not lawful good and or Chaotic Evil.

Shaman-This has my curiosity, it be a mix of divine and arcane spells with spontanious casting, and it calls upon spirit allies so I don't know how that will work.

Hunter, Seeker class reborn.

Slayer- My guess a mix of Favoured Enemy and Sneak attack for someone who specializes in killing one type or a couple of types of creatures. May also get tracking from the Ranger.

Just some thoughts.

I will be very happy if the book had at least most of these.

A spontaneous caster variant on each 9-level rote caster that doesn't have one yet (druid, etc.)

Enough archetypes for each new class to equal the amount of support that the core and base classes have obtained so far. (This may be perhaps unrealistic with UMAG, UCOM, and the APG already extant, but they can try).

A Marshal/Warlord equivalent.

A PC version on the Aristocrat--not necessarily a "rich guy goes slumming with the rabble" type of class, but someone who is your party negotiator, your faceman, perhaps a rogue-bard hybrid with more leadership and influence abilities rather than performance magic or spy/thief/assassin abilities.

There is no class to my knowledge which is based on pure luck, fate, karma, that kind of thing. Maybe it'd be better as a prestige class since your class features would basically consist of variations on the kind of stuff that hero points are used for, and all those rules are optional.

Bard + Cavalier = Marshal

Some interesting combinations:

* A guy that has both Arcane and Divine Magic from level 1 (Warlock?).

* Gunslinger + Alchemist = Demolition Man/Woman. Very heavy firearms and explosives, like bazookas and stuff.

* Monk + Summoner = ???

I know some of these, Swashbuckler and Hunter and any other "No Spells" classes may see use in any future Pathfinder Games, especially P6 unless they are really awful which is unlikely given Paizo's consistent quality.

Also if you want to see what probably inspired these check out Multi Class Archetypes which is pretty much what it says on the tin. Its several dozen 20 level classes made from hybridizing 2 Pathfinder classes. Its IMO one of the best fan things ever done for the game.
