To mimic what some did on reddit when the new books got out. Just got my copy of Ragoe of elements and I'll answer some questions that are in the book.

Got any questions on the lore update or the new class, hit me up!

  • kineticist class is as versatile as many hopped
    • light armor (maxing at master at 19)
    • class DC/attack master at 15 edit: legendary at 19

Much smaller audience here, so I can ask question and not feel like an idiot

What is kenetisist and why are people hyped about it?

The new class, it's about using one or multiple elements. It's not a spellcaster with spellslots though, think of it more in line with an Avatar character.

Multiple reasons to be hyped, some folks liked the kineticist from 1e, others want a "spellcaster" that's not a vancian caster. I just really like the theme of controlling the elements.

It's also, a pretty cool take on the "Elementalist" concept. By not making it a new full caster class and just adding a bunch of new elemental themed spells they can diferente the class from wizard or druid and let it shine on its own. While also opening up a new play style, the elemental blaster concept is not currently well represented and the Kineticist should theoretically fill that niche.
