I've just released Paths of Magic, my FINAL book for Pathfinder 1st edition. This titan of a book is over 450 pages deep and combines the content from Path of Shadows, Path of Iron, and Path of the Wilds and expands on all three.

Some of the features you can look forward to include:

Nine new base classes: the eldritch cabalist, the cunning saboteur, the spirit-calling invoker, the stealthy nightblade, the protective warden, and more.
Dozens of new options and archetypes for your favorite classes, such as the metallurgist alchemist, animist barbarian, and the shadow priest cleric.
Nearly 150 new feats to support all kinds of play styles from spellcasters to close-range combat, including metamagic feats, combat feats, and new “technique” feats that grant specialized combat options.
Over 250 new spells for practically every magic user. Take on armies with conjure siege weapon, or create an explosion of verdant life with the wild growth spell. Trap your foes within the empty void prison and wither them away with deadly eclipse.
The rune magic system, where every spell serves to empower the next, complete with nearly 200 “runic scripts”, feats, magic items, and archetypes.
New magic weapons, armor, wondrous items, and more. Shatter foes’ defenses with the hand of the monolith or hide in the shadows with the silhouette.

If you're interested, you can get it on DriveThruRPG (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/361707/Paths-of-Magic), Paizo.com (https://paizo.com/products/btq027wq?Paths-of-Magic), the Open Gaming Store (https://www.opengamingstore.com/collections/ascension-games-llc/products/paths-of-magic), or on my Ascension Games website (https://www.ascension-games.com/shop/paths-of-magic).

This thread serves as both a release thread and also a place for discussing the book or asking any questions about its contents and/or rules. Feel free to ask any questions you have, especially if you feel it warrants an FAQ/errata.

Greetings Seginus
Currently reading through the new tome and it's outstanding (as is usual), going to be posting a full review once I get through it all. I have to gripe about only one thing though ... there is no shaper archetype which allows them form some sort of "void" blade type thing. I was super shocked not to find one to be honest, it's the perfect base class to have such an archetype and it would ooze with flavor calling forth a razor thin star studded black plane of gravitic force. :smallcool:


Cheers
