Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tormyr" data-source="post: 7070596" data-attributes="member: 6776887">Not being familiar with the Pathfinder class, it seems on the surface like there is a lot of overlap with what is already in the PHB. How would the following be different?1. Dragon Disciple: a Draconic Sorcerer with an weapon or armor feat or its first level from fighter?2. Duskblade: A paladin with the Sorcerer spell list?3. Swordmage: An eldritch knigh with the Abjuration spell list (or an Abjurer with a level dip in fighter)?Sorry that I am not familiar with the concept. The archetypes seem like they are very similar to existing archetypes but from different classes which could make adjusting all of them to the same class slightly difficult. Other than that, they seem fine on the surface and could be lifted almost wholesale from their existing classes.As for some suggestions on the base class, it seems like the PF spellcasting ability is Intelligence. You could start with the Wizard class and toss out all class features (that show up in the wizard graph in levels 1 to 20) except ability score increases. So no arcane recovery, ritual casting, spell mastery, etc. This would create room for light armor proficiency, all weapons proficiency, Extra Attack, medium armor proficiency at a higher level, and the Archetype features.</blockquote>
