Class(ic)s Remastered: The Fighter
39Hello Travelers & Tourists!
Welcome to Class(ic)s Remastered, a spin-off of my "Class(ic) Introductions" series that examines what various classes in TTRPGs have to offer players at the gaming table. The Pathfinder 2e Remaster has arrived, and the first set of the sixteen classes that are being updated have been released, so the time to examine those changes has arrived!
In this video, we will examine the Remastered Fighter through the lens of eight core questions:
1) What is the Class Role of the Fighter?
2) How Complex is the Fighter to Build & Play?
3) What has Changed for the Fighter in the Remaster?
4) What are the Key Terms & Concepts to Know for the Fighter?
5) What are the Strengths of the Fighter?
6) What are the Weaknesses of the Fighter?
7) What are the Build Options for the Fighter?
8) How can I "Get the Most" out of the Fighter in play?
