The Magus Class v2.0.0 - Major Update!

Hey all, got a big update for the Magus class - including four new Esoteric Orders and a new Patron Exclusive Order - the vampiric Order of Crimson Knights! I've also added in all of the non SRD spells (which is cool since this is out there for FREE!)

Let me know what you think in the comments, always looking for feedback!

Order of Arcane Archers. Use your Arcane Armory and Spellstrike from afar with ranged attacks. A replacement for the lackluster Arcane Archer for the Fighter.

Order of Blade Dancers. Do you like the Bladesinger Wizard? (I don't, wizards don't need to also be good in melee...) Then this is the subclass for you! Enter into your Blade Dance for increased benefits (not unlike the Bladesinger) and slay your foes!

Order of the Eclipse. An Order focused on subterfuge, darkness, and illusion magic. Not a ton of combat buffs, but more things to set you up to get the jump on enemies.

Order of Scales. Want to play as a Dragon Rider?! Now you can (at 14th level).

Order of Crimson Knights. Want to play as a vampire but don't want to be a squishy caster that has to hide from their enemies? This is the Order for you (are you evil?)

That is an interesting way to go! Maybe they get access to certain Warlock spells to enhance the Hex flavor. The actual question is would you want them to be similar to the Hexblade thematically or mechanically? Because I'm not a huge fan of its mechanics. Thematically it is awesome though.

I would actually really like to see a Hexblade subclass for the Magus. As an arcane half-caster, it would definitely fit the theme of the original 3e Hexblade a lot better than the warlock subclass, and I think there's room for some interesting curse-related abilities. (Of course, you could and probably would want to call it something else. Order of the Evil Eye?)

Good call! I haven’t gotten the chance to read MotM (or Fizbans) yet unfortunately. Been meaning to pick those up when I get some spare time/money!

A quick editing note on the Crimson Knight poison resist, the clarified wording from Mordenkainens Monsters of the Multiverse is "You have advantage on saving throws you make to avoid or end the poisoned condition on yourself."
