If you purchase through this link, I may receive a small kickback from drivethruRPG. I typically use the funds from that to invest in stock art and other visual design assets for future releases.[/B] When I wound down the Thematic Toolkit series, I mentioned I'd be replacing it with a larger product called Multiclasser's Manual. With work on the first one of those well underway, I figured it'd be good to tell folks about it! The core of the book is the synergy feat chains; there are 25 two-class combinations covered, and of those, 24 are brand new, with the one reprint being the rogue/wizard chain from Thematic Toolkit: Venomous Shadow. The full list of two-class combinations is as follows: [LIST] [*]Cleric/Fighter [*]Cleric/Rogue [*]Cleric/Wizard [*]Fighter/Rogue [*]Fighter/Wizard [*]Rogue/Wizard [*]Fighter/Herald [*]Marshal/Rogue [*]Cleric/Herald [*]Esper/Warlock [*]Artificer/Druid [*]Sorcerer/Wizard [*]Marshal/Ranger [*]Druid/Warlock [*]Elementalist/Sorcerer [*]Warlock/Wielder [*]Adept/Sorcerer [*]Adept/Cleric [*]Cleric/Marshal [*]Berserker/Ranger [*]Ranger/Witch [*]Bard/Warlock [*]Herald/Wielder [*]Savant/Scholar [/LIST] A few notes about those combinations: while fighter/wizard is covered already, I wanted a heavily-armored "magical shock trooper" kind of option on deck and decided to make a feat chain for that. The Warlock/Wielder chain also has [I]eleven[/I] feats in it; two that interweave the core class features and then one for each of the nine combinations of bonded artifact and pact boon that exist, and yes, if you take the Pactkeeper's Reward invocation, it is possible to pick up two of them if you wish. Each of these combinations also not only comes with a fully-generic synergy feat chain, but some analysis and advice on how to combine the classes and 4-6 general character concepts with a list of suggested archetypes and backgrounds for each. There is also one [I]three[/I] class synergy feat called "paladin" that requires the opening synergy feats for the cleric/fighter, cleric/herald, and herald/fighter chains. But the book isn't just synergy feat chains! Here's what else is in there: [LIST] [*]Four new archetypes: [LIST] [*][B]Artificer: [/B]Experimental Chirurgeon [*][B]Rogue: [/B]Hand of the Highborn [*][B]Wielder: [/B]Reliquarian [*][B]Warlock: [/B]Avaricious [/LIST] [*]A set of seventeen "profession" feats modeled on the Covert Training, Heraldic Training, and Woodcraft Training feats from the core rules.
