I think the idea is awesome, and the amount of possible archetypes the class opens up is surprising; it was just the out-performing thing that I disagreed with.For those fiddling with non-standard ideas for a slayer, Half-elves get to pull off extra shenanigans with their Dilettante ability, which lets you cheat in Eldritch Strike or one of the Seeker ranged basics to use as a basic attack. Yup. It also opens up the archetype of the highly perceptive rogue, who can stalk someone in the dark of night easily, and can spot the knife coming at him from behind his back (Wisdom focus, of course). Again, I like it.I suspect either the person who keeps that thread up-to-date hasn't indexed the new thread yet (it is less than a week old, after all), or indeed only somewhat complete handbooks are included.With most of the power choices gone for Slayers, the guide really needs feat and weapon advice, Reserve Maneuver (Rain of Blows) + PP abuse, and a good choice of ED's before it's finished.</blockquote>
