Pathfinder 2e Advanced Players Guide Playtest: The Witch | GameGorgon

[@-r3f196]

More Witch! it was my favourite Pathfinder 1e class

[@Orphide]

Bayonetta is a witch who fights using her hair and let's say she's far from gross. Also, I think the Pathfinder 1 witch did similar things.

[@Althaven_]

I am now thinking like a super goth witch who headbangs using hair as melee attacks.

[@banaroklionrage9536]

the "white haired witch" archetype existed, so it kind of did but it was not woven into the base class.

[@voncaelum5547]

More Witch class content pls!!!!

[@squidrecluse2336]

I have a friend that played a dwarf living hair witch/monk multiclass in 1e. His flurry of blows had a 10 foot reach and every hit gave him a grapple attempt... with his beard. That thing was a monster.

[@Althaven_]

Hilarious? Check. Gross? Check. OP? Check. Sounds like we have a perfect build here folks, lol! Love it.

[@lukadebank2430]

every video makes me more glad i subbed to this channel

[@Wikrin]

I almost didn't watch you guys' other content because this was the first video I saw. With headphones on, while nursing a headache. I'm glad I went back and watched the other videos, but damn. That cackle killed me.

[@Althaven_]

I would like to say... I'm so sorry!!! And welcome!!!

[@Wikrin]

@@Althaven_ It's cool; can't account for all circumstances. Regardless, I've enjoyed your content, so thank you for making it.

[@academic0chris]

I listen to you guys on my commute to work, so hell yeah, more content.

[@Jacob-gy6jl]

Can’t wait to see more from the playtest! I like the format, I found it to give a better picture of the class than spending more time on when their different saves and dcs increase. Hope to see more discussion on the myriad archetypes in different books once you’re done with the playtest!

[@kasenwade5386]

Instablaster...

[@Ghypes83]

Welcome back fellas!! The internet has been a dull place without you

[@Althaven_]

And our phones have been a dull place without KZbin comment notifications. ;) Enjoy!

[@Hippiemomsdiamondart7618]

Cant wait for the playtest and would love to know more cause I am playing a witch in a pathfinder game right now. love the video thank you so much you all have helped me with it.

[@Althaven_]

Glad to hear you enjoyed AND got some value! :D

[@torstenwhetsell]

It is mentioned in this video that the cauldron feat is basically mass production alchemy, but I don’t think it is given justice just how different this feat actually is. The alchemist makes elixirs, mutagens, and poisons. This feat allows the witch to make true magical potions, which have a whole different range of effects when compared to alchemical items.

[@seathorn1]

I really enjoy your videos and hope you both are doing as good as can be!

[@Althaven_]

Can't complain, and right back at ya! Thanks for the support! :D

[@StretchDattass]

Love the format and how it's more focused on the feats, do swashbuckler next please!

[@SirAbram1]

I enjoyed this format!

[@alonelole]

well, in PF1e there was an archetype for the witch with the long hair (white hair witch i think it's called), and it was rly fun to multiclass it with any physical build, so you basically grab enemy with your 10ft hair and make them suffer the grappled condition (while u don't suffer it), and then keep hitting them with a reach weapon (coz you have your hands free)

[@CraigSteinhoff]

I liked format but I am only mildly interested in the play test stuff since Paizo basically said these classes will change a bunch before they go live. I would love to see and discuss some of the other systems in the core book. Like maybe perception, ambushes and invisibility. how it works and how you handle it at table. My thoughts :)

[@idiocracy9020]

I was just watching the spellcasting video. How serendipitous.

[@Althaven_]

Well 'aint that the darnedest thing? :)

[@Drewbe821]

Interesting rework of the last edition's witch class. I'm still on the fence about this edition of Pathfinder vs the last. Congrats on your milestone.👍

[@sacredbeastzenon]

Drewbe_ Yeah, I get it. I felt much the same at first. After reading over the Core Rulebook for 2e I quickly fell in love. 1e and 2e have there place in my roster of games. My preference would be to combine features from both editions. Equipment. backgrounds, from 2e, and use them in 1e.

[@Shadowshel17]

More witch stuff, please.

[@MrZombieTickler]

Great video format. A lot of good flow compared the the static rule by rule level advancement of a class.

[@Althaven_]

That's what we were going for! We're trying really hard to not just read the book to you...because most of you can do that yourselves. :)

[@DeusVultLurch]

Living hair you say? "You act like you've never seen a man with 5ft long nose hairs!"

[@Horde1Blades]

did you just honestly make Bobobobobo reference?

[@omaiwashinderu5912]

Loved this, the beginning was funny as hell. Can't really find a pf2e game to play in, but this video makes me wanna scour the internet for games, now!

[@jacobmanly9464]

I am now wanting to play a monk, barbarian or fighter who picks up the witch archetype and then takes the hair feat. Super Sayain go!

[@Althaven_]

Lol, YES. Also, side note, this is Croog, and I thought you were Jake for a second. Nice name, rofl. It's like "I'm like Jake from GameGorgon, except MANLY. XD

[@nugsnotdrugs7717]

How did I miss this video? I was waiting for so long and it was already released. My life is a lie

[@toodleselnoodos6738]

I always liked the idea of grabbing Wortwitch and playing a primal witch as a renegade Druid with a patron nature spirit that is against the Circles that the spirit sees as tyrant exploiters of natures’ powers.

[@final1lock1down]

Played a witch to level 20 in Pathfinder 1st edition. He was a support dynamo with a lattice of Hexes that could achieve silly things by working together, like healing two people at once from a mile away as a standard action.

[@Ogrimmygrimgrim]

There's a feat that makes cackling a free action, amazing

[@Althaven_]

Can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, but it is actually really strong IMO. :)

[@Shenvalleyboi]

It's nice to note that because the witch's familiar has extra powers, you can archetype alchemist, use one of the witches familiar powers for the extra reagents ability, and build a witch that's popping out potions faster than Phoebe in Charmed. In addition to Cauldron, there's another Witch feat that lets you make even more potions. I can't wait for the final version to come out in July with the Advanced Players Guide, so I can put together an official witch to play in my gaming group. Using the playtest witch now, but knowing it's going to change in just under two months when the official release drops is making me ever so impatient.

[@EasilyBoredGamer]

This was really nice, this format is good

[@Althaven_]

Thanks!!

[@docbad2957]

Love it! Many much more videos like this, please!

[@Althaven_]

Judging by the speed at which Paizo is giving us subject matter, that won't be an issue. :)

[@epiclids]

My cat ran into the room VERY concerned after hearing that intro.

[@Althaven_]

Lol, your cat has good instincts!

[@RhystheRed]

Planing my first pathfinder campaign, want to put a witch in it for playable characters. So, more witches content please.

[@Eruvadhril]

I've been waiting for the Witch since the beginning of 2e and I am hype

[@juniperpashoo]

I lived for witches and swashbucklers in 1e so I am living for what's to come

[@StephanFitzgeraldTay]

Big problem with living hair... it isn't finesse or range, so witches will need strength to use it well an odd choice for a non-melee class that can't use armor. PF1e witches had prehensile hair which used their intelligence modifier for attacking and damage and was ranged, allowing witches to deliver spells via their hair.

[@Althaven_]

True! Perhaps it'll be a better choice as an Archetype option (Croog said, hopefully)

[@StretchDattass]

They'll probably add like a 10 foot range to it in the official version, remember this is still just playtest.

[@Motleydoll123]

I imagine there will be buffing feats for the hair, like letting you use your spell caster modifier for it, or use it to choke or strangle a target. You could easily make some terrifying witch who potentially kills people by forcing her hair down their throats.

[@DeusVultLurch]

This class might get me back into PF2

[@AssassinTheGamer18]

I'm glad witches are largely staying similar to their first edition incarnation

[@LordMobias]

The hair thing... on the witch class... Its a Bayonetta reference, isnt it?

[@sirsnugglebot9772]

Mobias 100% a reference and I love everything about it

[@Jacob-gy6jl]

Sindel from Mortal Kombat did it first lol

[@greenhillmario]

I can't believe I didn't notice that until now

[@banaroklionrage9536]

Maybe?, it existed in PF1 as the "white haired witch" archetype, but i don't know when the book that introduced them was printed or what inspired the archetype.

[@000Dragon50000]

The better thing about the witch IMO was the ability to DEFY the more christian cackling evil grandma trope and instead go for a more pagan shaman-esque greenwitch type deal, like, the child who can see spirits and learns to communicate and work with them, and suchforth. The sheer versatility of freely choosing which lessons you use lets you craft a lot of more... unusual... patrons.

[@jamesroberts5450]

You guys are THEE best.

[@Althaven_]

NO YOU!

[@cydthemagi]

Would like more talk about the Feats, but this format is good.

[@Althaven_]

Yeah, during editing, I wish we had at least touched on some higher level ones in addition to what we covered. We'll do our best!

[@maglor159]

living hair makes me think of the song "I whip my hair back forth, I whip my hair back and forth!!"

[@Shenvalleyboi]

and just like that, an idea for a witch archetype bard was born...Going to be playing that song during combat. It'll be the dm's warning that it's about to get all sorts of hair crazy.

[@grimasialander7183]

Jaden Smith will be a good witch... By the way, is the healing witch still playable? A cackled heal will be nice...

[@ronaldsanfran]

Yay APG playtest classes! For future playtest videos you might want to check out the developers' response to the playtest feedback, including some likely changes they will make for the final versions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2qvn5h4o8R1irM

[@Althaven_]

We definitely try to when we have time! Personally, it's hard for me because I like giving my initial assessment free of influence (aside from the other Grogon), so it limits when I can watch stuff like this.

[@falloutboy9993]

More VVitch stuff please! I really want to see it’s potential!

[@acedelizo6430]

The living hair reminds me of a CN or Nickelodeon cartoon where that was this bearded guy whose beard becomes a fist

[@jonathanduardo7458]

I would love to see a build of the witch with tge "wierd" feats. I want so much to make a character that goes from funny to disturbing seamlessly

[@StretchDattass]

Its pretty much just the hair and nails right now. From what I've seen.

[@Rslick96]

When you & your significant other are both free to meet up 😂 0:00 - 0:10 but also it be like 😈

[@Althaven_]

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@Fenriswolfer77]

I just want a party made out of 4 bards with the witch archetype, each of them choosing the living hair feat. You just have a bloody Hairmetal Band roaming around.

[@TheOnlySheet]

Would you guys know if the APG for PF 2e will be made available in advanced to 3rd party publishers? (as Paizo did for the rules of PF2e). I've been hunting for this information for a while and I'd like to get it early to start integrating it in my Tool... Thanks for the video!

[@grimmreaver9355]

The Alchemist gets a feat that allows them to make 8 potions instead of 4 and the witches 6.

[@torstenwhetsell]

Alchemists don't make potions. They make Alchemical Items, which are not Potions. They are two completely separate types of consumables. That's what the real distinction is between these two feats.

[@jmixer08]

Living hair reminds me of BoBoBo-Bo Bo-BoBo

[@jrok9996]

Where does Indigo get his stylish fez hats? That's the real question here.

[@Althaven_]

Fez-o-rama

[@alonzoharris6424]

I have not played Pathfinder 2nd edition yet but is a witch hair? Since its states is an unarmed attack I'm just imagining a witch fighting with her several feet long hair as a monk would

[@kwagmeijer26]

i imagine a witch head banging and the hair reacting by attacking and combat maneuvering.

[@salazar5100]

Should this video be in the 2e release playlist with the other advanced guide playtest

[@kylone1]

That was a hair-raising introduction.

[@Kennethray79]

Potions and alchemy items are different items types.

[@AaronArnoldaquapod]

I'm making a muscular hair witch. His armpit hair is so strong.

[@umpum3963]

I feel like Living Hair is a Bayonetta reference.

[@KalaamNozalys]

Can't wait to make a male witch/wizard specialized in lightning spells and constantly cackling. I'll name him Sheev.

[@elrados]

[@stome3416]

I feel like hair was nerfed from pf1e without any real reason for it. On top of that I can't really see a melee witch taking it over nails (the get a hex strike thing built in) ever

[@Sue_D_Nymn]

Just have your Monk grow a braid off the back like early seasons Zuko.

[@sagehatch7733]

Wizard build and witch build please.

[@clanpsi]

Huh. When I read Cackle before I read it as being able to sustain multiple spells for one action, and that made it unique. If it's one action for one spell then it's just garbage and begs the question of why the Witch exists at all.

[@kwagmeijer26]

2 reasons A. doesn't require concentration, so things tgat cause concentration failure doesn't stop it (and you can use cackle while enrage as a barbarian) b. feat support

[@partyboy2131]
