20:11 glad to hear some of my analysis is holding up in practice lol 25:50 - I recorded all that stuff to come out as early as possible, don't feel bad about it... My entire style is basically to get a video from start of production to release ASAP for a normal video. (Got into that habit from reacting to playtests / new books) 29:50 I actually playtested with a soldier 2-5 in a campaign in its original form before we got the whole book and the takeaway was that it felt very comparable to champion in terms of impact. It definitely had the "all my friends are dead" issue where in boss fights its area damage meant very little.

@@SwingRipper I suspect that Soldiers, like blaster casters, will really shine against groups of enemies. Like fighting 5 lower-leveled enemies at once. I suspect Action hero and armor storm to be the standout favorites for the increased range, or just running into the center of a group of enemies and shooting the explosive at your feet.

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 Yes, but dragon/dragonesque races in ttrpgs tend to be very weak compared to other races. The dragonblood versatile heritage in player core 2 is already looking pretty unimpressive, especially considering they just ripped all the features from kobolds. I'm not asking for a 100 ft fly speed or anything, but I wish being (at least partially) one of the strongest races in the game would be a very strong option and not mostly flavor text with weak abilities that don't stack well with other feats, skills, ext. I want a dragon that makes whatever class I'm playing feel stronger, not a dragon I have to build a class around to feel like a dragon. It's possible Paizo will do that, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

my proposed balance adjustments: envoy: fine as is mystic: 3 spell slots max per level. 4 is too much on top of everything it has operative: remove fighter proficiency and ranged reactive strike. maybe give its aim action a +1 circumstance bonus to hit on the attack? solarion: let solar flare use strength and let it scale with accuracy, and buff some of the feats. maybe fighter accuracy with solar weapon but that might be too much. soldier: is as fine witchwarper: like mystic, 3 spell slots per level. it does NOT need 4. maybe buff the anchors a little bit? those felt underwhelming to me personally when i read the playtest.

What you missed with the soldier is that firing into an area costs 2 actions so you can not fire again with your third action (and can not hold enough guns to do so. Also, the soldier is highly dependent on enemy saves, which if you ever looked at the numbers... they are AWFUL. Enemies saves are much higher than their AC and while you can buff your attacks and debuff your enemies' AC you can not buff your save DC and rarely if ever can debuff their saves. I ran 5 combats while having a soldier and because of the nature of how PF2e works they are underpowered, in one combat the enemies were taking cover every turn which improved them to greater cover having +4 to AC, the soldier could use area fire to center the AoE behind them ignoring the cover and despite that it was still better for him to ignore his main class feature and roll a single attack roll against an enemy's AC+4 rather than to ask them for a reflex save

Uh, I mean, they can? Auto Fire for 2 actions . . . free 'primary target' fire, third action, fire normally (assuming you are using an autofire weapon like the rotolaser.) Also, and I didn't mention this in the video, Autofire Save DCs are increased by your targeting module. So a soldier ends up with legendary in class DCs+3 on top of that for saves, making their saves the hardest to resist in the game at higher levels. Also, the Envoy's base ability is to debuff reflex saves with Get 'em, and Frightened from intimidation also debuffs all saves. I mean, I believe you in that your soldier had a tough time. Sorry about that. If you think they need a buff at earlier levels, that's valid. I'm just bringing up some counter arguments.

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 I have played at higher levels and it is better there but not enough to make them good. Specially with how much slower class DCs go up compared to attack DCs (though they did make it only go up 2 levels slower). Frightened is indeed one condition that will reduce saves but it is often a -1 and hard to maintain, while off guard and a mirriad of other things will reduce enemy's ACs by 2 and stack with one another. Due to the +3 from tracking it will be able to not fall that much behind but does not change the numbers, enemies will still be saving a lot due to the core of how the system works

To your thoughts and example on Hair Trigger, Sniper Rifles (Shirren-eye/Assassin Rifles) have the unwieldy trait and can't be used as a part of Strikes that are triggered from a reaction. The Seeker Rifle (d10 120ft range) is the most "sniper-y" gun that would work with it, thought that might make it edge out the other rifles I think that's fine as there should be a reason to not just auto-pick the Fatal d12 weapons. Edit: Same feedback for the Soldier. The unwieldy trait prevents most of what you're worried about.

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 specific features allow that, but not in the example where you're making 2 strikes after an area fire. Once feats get into it I'm sure it'll be more powerful, I've only playtested three sessions so far and it's all been level 1 so things will change. I think the Rotolaser is fine as well because it's not as much damage as an unwieldy weapon. The level 4 feat Punishing Salvo will be more dangerous with the Zero/Stellar cannons, but the Overwhelming Assault feat will be better for auto-fire weapons without unwieldy so it's a pretty balanced choice imo.

The thing that surprises me the most about the solarian, is their class DC progression. They seem similar to a kineticist, by using spell like abilties using their class DC. But kineticist become legendary, just like full spellcasters. Solarians only get expert at 13 and master at 19. That is worde than literally everything else. Full casters get expert at 7, focus spell martials (ranger, monk, paladin) get expert at 9 and even spellcasters archetype gain their expert spellcasting feature at 12.

I know where the designers want to go with the Operative, but they got lazy IMO. The concept is not bad, they are really different from gunslinger who have more about style and generally are (aside snipers) more mid ranged/close combat gun fighters. The operative is an assassin and the problem is that they are less about stealth and sniping and more about to being a mishmash OP feats and traits.

So, from what I'm getting from this video is, in your opinion: Envoys are just fine. Mystics and Witchwarpers might be slightly overpowered (Although, Oracle also gets 4 slots per rank and Light armor training). Solarian could use a boost (especially in its ranged options). Soldiers might be slightly overpowered. And Operative is definitely overpowered and needs a few nerfs (And yeah, I think, if Hair Trigger is going to stay in some form, they should lower their weapon proficiency to Master, and decrease the range [perhaps 20-30 ft?] and possibly limit how frequently you can use it too). But anyways, glad to hear your thoughts on the playtest class, PPP!

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 I don't fully disagree. Although, if I had to guess, giving them both light armor proficiency is probably to account for the increased number of ranged attacks they'll be dealing with. Admittedly, I think, if the classes largely remain as released, I feel like Paizo should put out a 'conversion guide' of suggestions for using the different stuff between games. Especially since the playtest material mentions the idea of a 'ranged meta' Like, as an example: Spellcasting classes GET light armor proficiency when used in Starfinder, and Starfinder spellcasting classes LOSE light armor proficiency when used in Pathfinder?

Hair trigger is insane. Thaumaturge gets implement interruption, where you can do Reactive strikes and interrupt actions. But you can do it only within 10ft. Target needs to be marked with exploit.

Primary target actually has the same MAP as the area/auto fire did. If that was no MAP because the area/auto attack was the first thing you did this round, then primary target strike also has no MAP. And since it doesn’t contribute to MAP either, it means if you do a follow up 3rd action strike, its only at -5 from the initial area attack. Though you will run into the unwieldy trait preventing this if you don’t get around it somehow.

I haven't had a chance to dig in yet, but I'm hoping that a reflavored shadow mystic could be the stealth party priest I've been thinking about in Pathfinder. I recognize its power level, but I am more interested if it meets the fantasy than if it is more OP than cleric. I've never been a fan of repertoire casters, I wonder if a "fix" to the 4 slot issue people are noting would be addressed by basically giving it cleric spellcasting as a prepared 3 slot caster. Maybe the difference in chassis would just make things worse (I don't do a lot of homebrew), but it is more in line with my concept and cleric feats are really strong already so maybe it would work.

I don't see how Con is thematic to the solarian at all, and has little to do with the kineticist thematically, it is a magical martial, not an alternative way of casting without spells. I also think it is way more thematic on the soldier, being so though you eat the repulsion from your big ass weapon is cooler than just being strong enough to hold it in place, in my opinion. I do think they should incentivize Strength on soldiers a little bit more even if they should keep Con as their key ability score. But mostly because I don't see any character in this system not having Dexterity as their primary or secondary stat.

​@@Ditidosagree. Any changes to Solarian should focus on them being a Martial, not making them a second Kineticist.

What if they did Gravity and Photon "elements" for Kineticist? Class Archetype?

There is no photokinesis in Pathfinder lore. Only vitality kinesis for Wood kineticists. As for gravity, 1e had chaokineticists which channeled the void plane and had gravity and void blasts.

I ADORED the playtest, the only thing I really disliked was the witchwarper. They are terrible, miss on flavor, miss on mechanics, I can not think of a single good thing in the entire class, all of it is awful. The absorbtion of precog is horrible and the flavor of your time power being translated as 5ft movement speed in a bubble? Who thought this was a good idea? Their anchor powers are useless too. Just the only time I've seen paizo do a 0/10

To each their own. I like it. And remember, there are plenty of Precog focus spells and abilities that I didn't go over in the video that give it some more 'timey-wimey' flavor. But you're allowed not to like it. Just recognize that some people might. Keep on keeping on.

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 In part yes, I dislike how they missed the flavor but the fact that almost all of their main class features are close to useless, making them have their spells and little else is pretty objective. I agree that operative is a problem but witchwarper is a much bigger concern.

@@joserenatomigliorini4627 I dunno. Flat 20% chance to turn off any enemy spell is pretty good. And some of the focus spells are pretty good too. Plus the ability to get rid of Stupefied on a caster is REALLY solid. But I haven't playtested it so I don't know, that's just me looking it over.

@@joserenatomigliorini4627 I mean, unless they are backed into a corner, or near a graviton solarian, or they want to cast a 3 action spell. I'm not saying Witchwarpers auto-win every fight mind you; I just don't think their abilities are 'useless.' Also, it's a 15 ft burst, which is 30 feet tip to tip, which could matter in some situations. Especially if you are fighting in cramped starship hallways or tight urban settings.
