  • A look into the two new classes in the upcoming book "The War of the Immortals with Michael Sayre and James Case. A great look into the two new classes for the Pathfinder 2E Playtest, The Animist and the Exemplar. I'm attempting to summarize the information and give my thoughts on it.

    Not too much about the War of the Immortals, the new book being worked on by Paizo but we are introduced to the two new classes, The Animist and The Exemplar!

    So the exemplar has a divine shard inside his body? Brandon Sanderson vibes, I love it.

      Yup, I also liked the Maui reference although Sanderson has less Disney vibes :)

      Also, not to mention, but apparently the Mythic System is returning to Pathfinder with War of the Immortal. Which, as someone who just ran WoTR for a group over the past year, is both exciting and concerning given how poorly balanced the later levels of Mythic were. I understand that is 1E and 1E by itself was... something else, so we shall see how it goes. Overall, really exciting for both the new classes, and this AP.

    Animist kinda reminds of a Persona User from... the Persona franchise. In those games, your main character doesn't have their own stats or magics, instead, those are all determined by the personae you have selected in combat. If you need a persona with physical attributes, you switch to that one. Do you need an elemental resistance? Switch over to a persona with a high magic stat, and resist, or immunity, to an element.
    Then there's Exemplar...
    I love it. (Especially love Nahoa's design, he's gorgeous.)
    ANYWAY! The Ikon feats provide a great way to change up combat styles, I love the flavor that comes with it. That Sun Wrecker feat sounds like great fun, especially for the kind of sneaky-sneaky, goody-two-shoes, dark-angel build that I have in mind. Now I'm really curious to see what the new archetypes look like, and how they can be implemented with the characters I've already built.

    • @slystrategist
      @slystrategist  10 месяцев назад +1

      I've always wanted to try the persona franchise but I never have... The sun wrecker feet really cut my ear. I guess when I first heard it that sounded like such a good trick to run in the BBEG combat with a ton of minions!
      I'm looking forward to the playtest documents tomorrow!

    Love your videos. You start off each video by saying that you are “trying to be the Sly Strategist”. What do you see the Sly Strategist being and how will you know when you have become the Sly Strategist?

    • @slystrategist
      @slystrategist  10 месяцев назад +1

      LOL... it's kinda' a running joke now. I'll never actually be the Sly Strategist... I'll always have to try! In one of the first Live Streams some one said when I get 10,000subscriptions I'll have to say I'm the Sly Strategist.

      I kind of like both classes but to be honest but it's a playtest and we've only seen a few snippets (at least for the next few hours)... It's going to be a bit wacky and that is how I'm going in to viewing it. I like the different ways of 'casting' for both classes and for all the complaints I see on reddit about Vancian casting you'd think it would get a better reception?

      It won't be out for a bit, although I don't believe that they've given a release date. I would think that this is really early playtesting.

      The remaster isn't a massive change to the rules, it's tidying things up and removing OGL things, and so on. Along with the fact that WotI won't be out until probably genconish next year
