My opinion is that you can't make all those three things together efficiently: Personal preference, I really like the Stormborn bloodline. Is there a way to link it to my character level? I know about Arcane Trickster but that does not help the blood line problem. So my thought was some kind of Spell Thief but I do not know how to do that and still get good spell casting levels as well as still get my blood line progression. Here is the catch, we also need a sneaky skill junky. The party needs an arcane spell caster who has nether a spell book or a familiar, so Sorcerer. Feels like a blaster caster, but doesn't run out of blasts. Could be neat depending on the elements you choose, and the damage they deal is pretty nifty. I personally don't like the Warlock, but maybe you will.įinally, the Kineticist isn't a true spellcaster, but as I recently learned it also can learn some specific spells. Can ask your DM if your familiar can be a Mauler familiar and if the archetype will apply to it when it's advanced, so you can fly around on a medium sized faerie dragon or the like - with DM permission. Consider nabbing the False Focus feat.Īnd now for something completely different: BE A MAGICAL GIRL! No spellbook, though it DOES have a familiar. If you'd rather stay pure Sorcerer, you could always take the Seeker archetype, but it costs you Eschew Materials. You'll need to shore up your will saves however. Sorcerer with the Sage bloodline, perhaps crossblooded with Stormborn, and then turned into an Arcane Trickster could be pretty fun. Bards are awesome, yo.Īnd though they don't cast spells in the traditional sense, an Investigator is a non-wizardy character with 6th level extracts and a great emphasis on skills. You trade out Inspire Courage for +AC and +Attack and +Saves, assuming you can consistently make your knowledge checks (play a dwarf, elf, or gnome with Breadth of Experience and you can do that just fine).Ī standard Bard works just fine, too, and is good at everything because Bards are good at everything. The Archivist archetype for Bard makes a good knowledge junkie with enough skills do other things. Note, this character DOES have a spellbook, but it's a very different style of play from Wizard. Could make a good self-buffing melee character that uses magic for utility purposes and perhaps some rays as well. I'd play a pure Rogue if you did this lets you cast spells from the Wizard spell list while still getting dex-to-damage, sneak attack, and so forth. Some psychic caster spell lists look very much like arcane lists, and VMC sorcerer/eldritch heritage is an option for them too.Įldritch Scoundrel on an unchained Rogue is an interesting angle to approach this from. Some divine casters can get a bunch of arcane spells one way or another and can take VMC sorcerer in the same way, or the eldritch heritage feats. A witch with the bonded witch archetype or the wyrm witch archetype has neither a spellbook nor a familiar, and can take the PF unchained variant multiclass (VMC) sorcerer to get a bloodline. A Magaambyan Initiate arcanist can take the bloodline development exploit and take Spell Mastery (possibly multiple times) to largely do without a spellbook. It's also possible to get moderately good skills by investing a lot of feats into increasing the effect of your untrained skills. Wildblooded (sage) makes your casting stat intelligence for example but is obviously incompatible with being stormborn. If you want to be a real skill junkie with lots of skills you'll need to relax one of your conditions. That's the simplest way to make this character. The Seeker archetype of the sorcerer plus a trait or two making some sneaky skills into class skills (and some investment in intelligence to have enough skill points, & maybe the cunning feat for some more) can be sneaky and use spells. By Spell Thief do you mean a sneaky type who uses spells, or something like the D&D 3.5 Spellthief character class, which had an ability to steal spell effects off enemies? For the latter the sandman archetype of the bard is the only Pathfinder way I think.
