Level Up (A5E) State of the Archetypes - Feb 1, 2023

It would be better if the chart was explained. Like when we on the site abbreviate books and expect everyone to know what it is. I seem to only figure out other and Zietgeist.

that's fair,
I believe Purple Martin Games alone has brought out more than 50 subclasses

Geez, has it really been that many? I feel like it's less than that.

Let's see..

Thematic Toolkit line:
5 x 2 archetypes (Arcane Avenger, Cultist, Storyteller, Scrapper, Thunder of War) = 10
3 x 3 archetypes (Venomous Shadow, Judge, Jury, and Executioner, Master of Ceremonies) = 9
Total: 19

MoAR line:
Wilderness: 5
Intrigue: 11
Light & Dark: 11 (and I need to fix a typo on the product page that says 12)
Battlemages: 7
Total: 34

Standalone Releases:
Arcane Sniper: 1
Confidence Mage: 1
Mortalist: 1
Fiery Justice: 2
Field Engineer: 1
Spiritualist: 1
Total: 7

19 + 34 + 7 = 60

Geez, we have been busy!
(And yes, I know, artificer, cleric, sorcerer, and savant all need more love. It's coming!)

Also @xiphumor - I have (as far as I know) everything released by everyone for A5E in at least PDF form. I'll see if I can get you some 3PP counts in a bit.

One other quick note: there's one more first-party archetype you're missing: Mythological Figures & Maleficent Monsters has a fighter archetype: the Warlord.

it's not really player-usable, though. it's more just a reference for the NPCs in the book.

I’m happy to publish a graph of 3PP content as well as official + 3PP if someone can provide me with the stats

Not quite true: it has several features from the archetype listed, but not enough information to actually play the archetype. Unless I’m missing something obvious.
