sorcerer guide pathfinder

Prying eyes is one of the best scouting spells ever, so that’s always cool too. My choice for a ray specialist. Skill Focus (Perception) is a great way to use a bloodline feat, as are Toughness and Iron Will. In any case, there are some real winners here, but remember that you don't have any way to affect creatures that are immune to mind-affecting effects, so that can be a serious issue. It’s a good ability, but since it doesn’t stack with other natural armor bonuses, it can become quickly useless at higher levels. It’s still a great ability though. Fearsome Spell is a great debuff option, Selective Spell is almost necessary for combat-type casters, Spell Focus is always solid, and Traumatic Spell is just plain fun. Arcana: This ability is pretty cool, especially given that you’re probably going to focus on debuffing with this bloodline. If only the bonus feats and arcana were more impressive, this could have been almost as good as Arcane. If this could be used more than once per day, I'd go bright blue for sure, but still this is really nice. This is a cool ability, and definitely better than that other Arcana, though you’ll probably hope that you won’t have ot use it that often. Heavenly Fire: This is a decent ability not for the damage that it deals (which is relatively weak) but for the possibility of healing your allies, as long as they’re good aligned. This, wow. Second- the value of skill boosting feats- I've been valuing skill focus fairly well, as a +6 to a skill is nothing to sneeze at, but I remain unconvinced on the feats like Deceitful. If you know ahead of time that there will be a lot of plants (say you’ve been told you’re going to an island controlled by Vegepygmies or something), then this turns blue, but otherwise sadly it must be orange. It’s a good ability, but since it doesn’t stack with other natural armor bonuses, it can become quickly useless at higher levels. One Body, Two Minds: Free Silent and Still spell, and also free Extend Spell if the spell is mind-affecting. Pretty nice overall. Eldritch Heritage/VMC: Because the lower-level powers aren't as exciting as the higher level ones, this bloodline isn't the best for EH/VMC. Vermin are treated as animals for your spells. Scions of innately magical bloodlines, the chosen of deities, the spawn of monsters, pawns of fate and destiny, or simply flukes of fickle magic, sorcerers look within themselves for arcane prowess and draw forth might few mortals can imagine. The summon monster 9 spell thrown on at the end is obviously meant to be used to summon demons to fight alongside you. This is one of the best bloodline spell lists out there. This ability is just way too situational to really be useful, even for an infiltrator. As it is, it can be useful. Free Spell Focus- that's stackable, you could stack it with spell focus and greater spell focus to get a +4 to spell DC of a school, good for charm or dominate spells- and there, Solid, not sure how useful it is at level twenty- this might warrant an Orange rating- but it's defiantly solid. Class Skill: Disable Device - This one can come in really handy, especially if you don’t have a good Rogue-type in your party. Consider trading it for. That’s almost useless! Final Thought: This is honestly one of the better bloodlines out there, and like I said in the intro paragraph, most people probably just gloss over it because they assume you’d need to be in an aquatic campaign for it to be useful. Class Skill: Diplomacy - No complaints here. Three of these feats are must-have (you should know which ones by now). A pair of claws aren’t as exciting as something like Feral Mutagen, so this only get an orange. You also get some really great summoning spells that will deal automatic damage to your enemies, since they’re swarms. Endure elements is a little lame, and surmount affliction would be really cool if you could cast it on others (how are you supposed to cast this spell to surmount paralysis if you’re PARALYZED? This is yet another way to help boost your defenses against negative spells and effects... you get to drop a single hit point to gain a +1 bonus to a damage roll, a skill check, or a saving throw. Good options overall. Once they do get close enough to start to scare you a little, just cast a. This is a good list of spells. If your hideous laughter spell fails, the parson you cast it on might come after you to keep you from hitting him with another spell, and this can give you a little extra defense. This in no way adds to a straight sorcerer build, but it's nice to have. Overall, good choice. Some schools however won't ever need this. Change your energy spells into cold damage. That’s just bloody fantastic. : This set of feats is pretty nice. This lets you cast spells on your companion that normally wouldn’t be able to affect its creature type (animal). Final Thought: I really love this bloodline, and you should too. This is honestly one of the very best bloodlines out there, and it’s made even better by the Advanced Race Guide and the Wayang favored class bonus. YES PLEASE KTHXBAI! Make sure to pick up Spell Focus (enchantment) for those. is infinitely better than having it as a spell known. 14 is more comfortable. This bloodline is a mix of awesome and weird, and honestly I love every second of it. M This spell has a material component not normally included in a spell component pouch. Shroud of Vermin: You can walk through swarms without taking damage. This means you can cast charm animal on that giant spider that was going to kill you, and tell it to knit you a sweater. This is a great list for a melee build, though rage and transformation are almost useless since you can’t cast spells during their effect. In fact, that’s better than the alignment-based DR that some of those other arcana give them, because you’re likely to fight creatuers that can actually bypass it. Final Thought: This bloodline is... strange. : An excellent ability, given how limiting your spells known are. This is due to the fact a wizard can change is spells chosen- and that he knows so many more spells. This stacks up with the arcana, but again, unless you’re working on an Intimidate-based build, it sucks. Source = Pathfinder Player Companion: Blood of Fiends. An extra boost to your (or an ally’s) Stealth checks when in dim light or darkness? It's hard to find poison with a DC that scales with level, and a familiar can come in handy for anyone. : I’m on the fence with this one. This is great for those make-it-or-break-it moments in the game, and can definitely make the difference between knocking out an enemy or being killed. However, I recognize that my opinions don’t always turn out to be correct, so any time there is a question about how the rules would be interpreted, I will provide both my interpretation and the way in which the rule can be interpreted by others. If there was something worse than red, I’d give it that. Ray of enfeeblement is a great low-level debuff, invisibility and lightning bolt are excellent for any Sorcerer, and the charm spells are great. Source = Haunted Heroes Handbook. This is a great low-level ability. Class Skill: Knowledge (religion) - This is a great skill for anyone because of the plethora of undead that are out there. Deal +1 damage per damage dice on spells that are elementally attuned to you. This is probably one of the best abilities in the whole game. This is another case, though, where you’ve made one of your bloodline bonus spells (. Then you take Eldritch Heritage and maybe use Horrific Visage a few times, but then Improved Eldritch Heritage gets you Dread Gaze and that one can really mess up your enemies while you’re wailing on them with full-attack spellstrikes. Grab 365 Magic Items today! Spell Penetration can be useful, and you may want Skill Focus (Knowledge (planes)), but otherwise, not much to be excited about. For a battlefield controller build, this might even be sky blue. And 1 to 3 uses of the ability should be enough, as you don't want to spend all your time blasting. This is because of the effect that you get from the Arial version’s arcana, which raises your effective caster level by 2 during any form of precipitation. This one can come in really handy, especially if you don’t have a good Rogue-type in your party. Not much bypasses adamantine except adamantine and high-level enhancement bonuses. Definitely situationally useful, but still not one of the most useful powers out there. This bloodline comes from the Dragon Empires Primer, and it’s pretty strongly tailored toward Eastern-themed characters. The first two spells aren’t that great, but. Wretched Endurance: This is a nice boost to saves against several effects, though several of them are based on Will saves which are probably reasonably high for you. That is excellent on its own, but you also get immunity to fire damage AND plane shift once per day. In this the Destined is among the worst (it's a runner up) and the celestial is the essence of... meh. and have the effect delayed much longer, BUT Heroic Defiance requires Diehard, Endurance, and a +8 base Fortitude save! Yes! Eldritch Heritage for this one is also a little tough... you could use it on a melee character to sicken your enemies, but your allies will still probably be disgusted by you. Look at how you can combine them to buff yourself to crazy levels: cast, . This could come in very handy, especially given the bloodline powers you’ll get, so I like this one. Well, that’s it guys, that’s all the bloodlines currently available. A decent arcana, but nothing earth-shattering. [Elemental Spit]: This is another 1d6 + ½ level damage bloodline power, and just like with the rest of them I say there are so many better choices out there. No complaints here. Bonus Spells: alarm (3rd), create pit (5th), explosive runes (7th), dragon's breath (9th), transmute rock to mud (11th), guards and wards (13th), delayed blast fireball (15th), form of the dragon III (17th), imprisonment (19th). Corrupting Touch: Not a super great power, because it requires a melee touch attack and you’re not going to want to get that close most of the time. I'll say green, but I'd like to see what PFS will replace this ability with. A few of them require touch attacks, which is painful for a Sorcerer generally, but overall this is a good mix of bloodline spells. Arcana: This arcana lets you change your elemental-based spells to electricity on the fly. Photosynthesis: Not the most useful power out there, unless you’re stranded somewhere with no food around. I would probably consider this one highly for VMC for any buffer/healer character, though EH is tougher since you've got to pick up Skill Focus (Perform[Oratory]) <== BLAH. Arcana: Raising your caster level by one is really great, but it’s not cool that you have to take damage to do so. Overall, if you can convince your GM to let you use this bloodline even though it's from the Monster Codex, I'd recommend it as a decent alternative to the Draconic bloodline. : This is a decent ability, because buffing your allies is almost as good as debuffing your enemies. You could easily be someone’s muse, and the powers you get from this bloodline match that. I’m rating rage and transformation both low because they preclude you from casting any more spells, but if you’re trying to go for a true melee caster, you’ll be buffing yourself for a few rounds then casting one of these and charging in. Bonus Spells: endure elements (3rd), surmount affliction (5th), heroism (7th),blessing of fervor (9th), greater heroism (13th), joyful rapture (15th), mind blank (17th), overwhelming presence (19th). Sorcerer. This is a great power for those who want to focus on summoned creatures, because you can throw down a blast spell with your summoned creatures in the radius and they’ll likely come out unscathed thanks to their resistance. Once you hit 10th level, if your GM is feeling extra generous, he/she may allow you to take. Eldritch Heritage for this bloodline is solid for any frontline fighter, and having to take Skill Focus in Perception is more beneficial than detrimental, unlike some other bloodline skills out there. special not that the otherwise unhelpful spell focus: conjuration leads to the wondrous augment summoning, Not as helpful as the first one, but not a waste of a feat- you could probably do better is all, I like this one, its as good for sorcerers as it is for nerdy wizards, Not a bad choice, but not as helpful as the first +2, Here are the bloodlines (probably why you are here) my comments are in violet. google_color_text="959595"; Final Thought: This bloodline is another one that’s most useful for a melee-focused character, so if you’re playing a straight Sorcerer you’re probably not going to take it. A sorceress does not have to capture magic in a book and slavishly study it- she lives and breathes magic. This bloodline is all about hurting nature and causing destruction of natural things. While a Witch might find delivering touch spells at range useful, she’s probably still better off just using hexes instead. If this was like the inspire courage bardic ability, it would be much cooler, but instead lets you cast. This will come in incredibly handy, even though you can't use it if you already used it in the last 10 minutes. Let me also point that that a multiclass Magus/Sorcerer could make super great use out of this arcana. Like all the other elemental-style bloodlines, this one just isn't very good. Arcane bond is both better and worse for sorcerers than it is for wizards.On one hand it creates a weakness the sorcerer doesn't normally have- a pet to die and a staff to break. Elemental Resistance: Electricity resistance 10 at 3rd level is pretty sweet, and it increases to resistance 20 at 9th level. Now, this is interesting. That’s just crazy good. It also doesn't give you a lot of combat options other than going melee, which you'd be very good at, but really if you want to be a melee character, you should be a different class, in my opinion. You’re not going to come up against that many animal type creatures at level 20, so that part is almost useless. The ability to sneak up on your enemies can make all the difference in some combat situations. : This is a decent bloodline, and obviously if you’re trying to go Dragon Disciple it’s the ONLY bloodline for you. Very nice. Final Thought: The Maestro bloodline gives you several abilities that you wouldn’t get as anything but a bard normally, and you’re going to be very good at enchantment spells if you use it correctly. Borrow Tartuccio’s Crossbow for a bit. I don't think it's worth losing half your feats through VMC though. Once they do get close enough to start to scare you a little, just cast a delayed blast fireball and then form of the dragon III and go to town. which can effectively remove a creature from battle long enough to take out its allies. Eldritch Heritage/VMC: This bloodline has useful early powers and limited blindsense is extremely nice. VMC is still pretty weak, though. Bonus Spells: protection from good (3rd), scorching ray (5th), suggestion (7th),charm monster (9th), dominate person (11th), planar binding (devils and creatures with the fiendish template only) (13th), greater teleport (15th), power word stun (17th), meteor swarm (19th). Bonus Spells: enlarge person (3rd), scorching ray (5th), fireball (7th), wall of fire (9th), persistent image (11th), planar binding (13th), plane shift(15th), giant form II (17th), wish (19th). This one is blue bordering on bright-blue. Arcana: An increase to saving throws is good, but the Arial version arcana is definitely stronger, so look at that one for sure. Linnorm is overall weaker than straight Draconic, so I don’t recommend it. : This is a good arcana if you want to go with the thematic representation that your soul is corrupted, so killing others fuels your spellcasting, but mechanically this isn’t a very good ability. The spells are mediocre at best, the feats are alright, and the powers are decent except for the capstone. If your sorcerer is going into the arctic, this is the bloodline for you. The only real issue is that you've got all three form of the dragon spells on the list, when really you would want to drop the lower-level ones when you get the higher-level. As it is, it can be useful. It doesn’t stack with other increases to caster level, and that’s painful. This is awesome! To constitution? Bless, flame strike and sunburst are all cleric/druid spells, none are particularly great, flame strike is better than cone of cold in my opinion but not enough to warrant a higher rating. Elemental Resistance: You get the same resistance as the genie-based bloodlines, which I’m a fan of. : Any bonus to your Initiative score is worth having, so I love this ability. Eldritch Heritage/VMC: For a melee combatant, this one is okay, but honestly go look at the Ghoul bloodline instead... it's pretty much hands-down better than this one. Same as dexterity, You can trade one for the other (high Dex/ low con or vice-versa) but don't let either go below 12. VERY NICE. (19th). You never use Intelligence in battle, but you want to have a lot of skill points? The abyssal sorcerer really takes a hit here, most of these spells are no good at all. Pretty cool, but way too late to save this bloodline. It's really hard to rate many of these spells, because they get better as you get higher level. Not a fan. Drop it for Blood Havoc. Really useful! This isn’t the best capstone out there, but it’s solid. This situation comes up fairly often in the campaigns I've been a part of- and the ability to take a 5 foot step in the woods is fairly nice. They have sorcerer friendly features, but all the races after this one can give a charisma bonus so it's just not as good. Final Thought: This one is very similar to the other genie-based bloodlines, and none of them are really any better or worse than any of the others. However, I’m making this bright blue, because the power that replaces both the arcana and your level 1 bloodline power is just amazing. You cast psychic spells, and you get a bunch of really nice ones in your bonus spell list. Several of them, such as Spellsong and Lingering Performance, let you use your pseudo-bardic performance in better, more powerful ways. Trade it out for Blood Piercing, no question. Breaching the Gulf: Anything that raises your effective caster level is good, and you get the added bonus of transporting an enemy into the “void of space” if the fail a will save, dealing tons of cold damage and causing them to hold their breath or risk suffocation. Just like all the others, this doesn’t provide enough versatility to be exciting. There’s one huge disadvantage to this capstone, though... you become immune to. This is a decent ability, and can save your party’s butt in a real sticky situation. Darkvision is good, unless you’re a race that already has darkvision, in which case it’s pretty useless. The ghoul bloodline gives you several excellent combat-oriented powers, and the bloodline spells match this for the most part as well. 3 New Classes, 1 New Race, 17 New Feats. Conquer the Ultimate Dungeon Crawl! [Envenomed Arcana]: Skill boosts are not what you’re hoping to see from a bloodline arcana, even if they are relatively useful ones. A 10x10 column of untyped damage is cool, but it’s very limited on the number of uses you get per day, and unless you’re in an evil party, you’re probably not going to get a lot of use out of its ability to cause good-aligned creatures to become shaken. Again, it’s flavorful and I like it. No complaints here at all. This. This bloodline is all about humans, and our lust for conquest and making a name for ourselves. As you would expect from a Celestial bloodline, several of the spells here are normally only open to divine spellcasters, so those can be really nice to have around. Bonus Spells: expeditious excavation* (3rd), darkvision (5th), shifting sand* (7th), stoneskin (9th), spike stones (11th), stone tell (13th), repel metal or stone(15th), earthquake (17th), clashing rocks* (19th). Even if you can’t, it could be very useful for a melee-focused character. But what I like best of all here is that you can use your Invoke the Harrow ability FREELY, which means you can pull cards until you get the enhancement bonus you want! [Fate’s Retribution]: This is another power that you will hope you hardly ever have to use, because it involves an enemy landing a hit on you. Increasing your transmutation spells' durations by 50% is awesome. For a summoning-centric Sorcerer, however, this might be the right choice, and you can go around acting like a Paladin with your angel wings if you want, without the stupid Code of Conduct tying you down. Changing items into other items and making them from scratch can also come in very handy in a bunch of situations. She has not spellbooks to burn and not spellpouch to sunder. Grand Maestro: You can cast all spells as if they were modified by Silent Spell, which isn’t too exciting. All in all, a very decent spell list. Sweet. You can lower it as a standard action. Power of the Efreet: Just like the Djinni bloodline, you get access to limited wish without paying the normal cost. Again, we’re continuing with the whole “don’t let them get near you” approach to spellcasting, which I approve of.
