Pathfinder 2e is a popular role-playing game that features a rich world filled with divine beings and powerful magic. In the game, players have the option to play as divine spellcasters who are able to tap into the power of these divine beings and perform incredible feats of magic. Divine beings in Pathfinder 2e are often referred to as gods or deities. These gods come from different pantheons and have their own unique domains of influence. Some of the well-known deities in the game include Abadar, the god of civilization and wealth, Desna, the goddess of dreams and travel, and Sarenrae, the goddess of redemption and the sun. One of the main ways that divine beings interact with the mortal world is through divination.
This was apparent as early as the playtest, but for some reason people decided that it couldn't be said until the game had been out for years. "Theorycrafting" isn't valuable lol.
The evil of undeath is particular to it being a corruption of void energies beyond its intended purpose, and a corruption of vitality energies would be similarly evil except for the targeted purpose of attacking fiends, which are literal evil, unholy, what have you. But the pet getting Precision the two shots in one action feat seems to compensate almost perfectly for almost every other build- such as cantrip Spellstrike damage- or was I merely mistaken.
One of the main ways that divine beings interact with the mortal world is through divination. Divination is a type of magic that allows spellcasters to gain insight and knowledge about the past, present, and future. This is done through various methods such as scrying, augury, and prophecy.
Thread: Pathfinder 2: How do the classes stack up?
So, inspired by the other two threads that discuss things more generally, I think a dedicated thread for this would be interesting.
The question is as the title says: how do the classes stack up against each other?
It seems there is a strong consensus towards casters, at least before a certain level, which seems to vary from 5 to 9, being very underwhelming to play, especially compared to martials.
But how do the various casters compare to each other? I hear the Bard and Druid are somewhat decent, even at low levels? And the opinions on the Sorcerer seem to range from being absolute trash to actually pretty good. Do hexes save the witch? Are Oracle curses too bad? I want to hear your take on that, and more!
And as for those who are apparently the star of the show, how do the martials compare to each other? Fighter seems to be the golden child of the edition, can the many other martials keep up?
Is the Monk good out of the box, now?
Are Swashbuckler and Gunslinger more than 5 levels long?
One of my favorite things from PF1 are the 6/9 casters, I find they hit the perfect sweet spot between being interesting, distinct, fun and powerful. Yet, it would seem to me that they were done really dirty with the bounded caster model? Four spells a day! The Magus in particular used to have a beautiful action economy, and now it's not only incredibly tight, but Spell Combat got severely downgraded into mere Spellstrike fodder.
On the other hand, they do get up to 9ths now. Does that make up for having four slots a day?
How did the other 6/9 people fare? Alchemist seems seriously bad-mouthed.
For myself, I'm looking at the Ranger and just lamenting that Hunter is no more, and even then, the chassis feels so stripped that it seems hard to make a "complete" Ranger, with even bloody Wild Empathy turned into a feat. Feels like a Beastmaster Fighter could be better at damn near everything.
