Homebrew More Savant and Artificer Archetype Ideas

Legend
The Savant and Artificer are the two classes least likely to gain new archetypes, which is understandable, but a shame because there’s so
much unexplored potential in these classes! As someone who loves to homebrew, I’m trying to think of good concepts to build on, and I wanted to see what other ideas people had.

Maybe a Weaver Artificer or a Chessmaster Savant?

I don't have the Savant class so I can't speak to it, but for the Artificer I would like to see a tinkerer type that could build limited use gizmos for specific situations.

The EN5ider had a few archetypes for Savant that could stand to be turned into LU archetypes. It also had Alchemist and Tinker classes that could be raided for Artificer archetypes.
