So, a while back (I mean so many pages I don't even begin to remember precisely where), someone mentioned something about being able to make the bard a good arcane gish-in-a-can. How in Pathfinder would one make a good fighting bard (the actual bard class, not a skald or anything like that), preferr...

On a note that isn't about the vigilante (because I couldn't give less of a shit about even more new classes unless they're something amazing, which vigilante clearly is not, and I'm pretty sure pathfinder has surpassed 3.5 in glut of base classes now), what are some den-favored ways to approach pla...

I do like Mage (I guess one could say that's one of my shitty games I still like, along with nwod changeling), but is there a way to at least make the spheres themselves coherent (not the resolution mechanics of wod or gurps, but just the spheres and their levels themselves)? I had the thought that ...

Apparently, the Monster Summoner's Handbook has a new archetype for the cleric. And it's a really good archetype, too, handing out Augment Summons and Superior Summons as a bonus feat along with letting you spontaneously cast Summon Monster. And this is among the other things the game lets you do s...

Free-form magic systems
So, I was just reading the old oMage vs nMage thread wherein Frank and AncientHistory discuss the various iterations of WoD Mage, and I got to wondering, what systems out there have actual viable/good free-form magic systems, as opposed to the near incoherent Spheres/Arcana of mage and vague delinea...

Assuming you mean just caster level (as opposed to also spells known and spells per day), the price can be as low as a trait . Besides chucking fireballs, I also have the desire to play an illusionist reality warper, potentially able to blur the line between reality and illusion. To that end, specia...

At this juncture, I am more inclined towards Wizard, due to sooner spell level access. I just like spontaneous casting. Does the crossblooded sorcerer dip really make that much of a difference in blasty spell damage that it'd be worth losing a level as an evoker? And if so, when's the best time to t...

If I were to do a blasphemy and be an evocation kaboom mage (well, blasting and also battlefield control, want to be able to amp up the power if necessary and just blast when I don't need to go full power), would I be better served with an Evoker Wizard, a normal Arcanist, or a School Savant Arcanist?

Well, as for level, I tend to always think in terms of 5+. And I wasn't referring to only summoning, but rather the neat terrain altering battlefield control spells and other similar things conjuration has (Glitterdust, Pit spells, etc.), and teleportation and especially Creation effects. In fact, I...

So, some pages back, it was basically implied that PF Clerics are just straight up better than Wizards and can pull off most of their shticks, but how well can a Cleric be a Conjurer? Their standard action summoning feat is pretty limited, being based on alignment subtypes, and it seems Wizards get ...
