Preview: The Scholar Class, v0.4x

Added 2018-05-28 23:23:32 +0000 UTC

Hello backers!

I have gotten SO many requests to revisit the Scholar class over the past year or so and I am really pleased to say that I've finally given it a thorough revision that I'm happy with. Presented here is a draft of that revision.

This draft includes a few new additions and alterations:

- The inclusion of a new thirdcaster archetype, the Ritualist (who can cast spells from ANY class!)
- Erudite Applications are restructured to branch off of archetypes now instead of skill proficiencies. I liked (and still like) the idea of EAs based off of skill proficiencies but, in practice, they weren't working out. Restructured around archetypes is already much more thematically cohesive.
- I've added some opening fluff description
- Every features from 11th level on has been extensively revised and/or replaced
- The primary method of damage scaling for Scholars is in there new Analyze Enemy feature and secondarily in their, very late, Critical Eye feature

I hope you all enjoy this new draft and feel that the class is moving in the right direction. Whether or not you do, I hope you'll sound off in the comments and let me know what you think prior to this draft being revised again and made public next month.

As always, thank you for your support,

Benjamin
