Archetypes with two Primary Abilities

[sebacore]

I am working on creating a fighter archetype that has both the Weapon Training and Rogue Talent abilities. I can't seem to get this to work. When adding Rogue Talents it just adds them to the Weapon Training Ability.

How can I get both of the primary abilities?

Check the Cleric's Rage Domain from the APG - that has a script that modifies its class to make the secondary abilities table of the cleric class allow the user to select from the primary barbarian abilities.

Note that a cleric domain gets to its class with:

linkage[table].

And an archetype gets to its class with:

 
linkage[varies].

Ok, ther error I get with this is

Linkage pick 'table' not located for current context

Using the scripts from the rage domain in a class.

[Mathias]

Did you make the swap in the code that I described in my previous post?

[Frodie]

yep, I tried both, but it will not work on a class as a script

[Mathias]

Please define "tried both" (as in post the eval script you tried)

[Frodie]

Thank you again for the help. It works as a custom ability, but I want to attach it to the class so the cleric domains show up in the tertiary along with it other abilities.

~modify our linked class to add cleric domains

~we'll use the tertiary abilities slot for these

linkage[table].field[cCustTeTot].arrayvalue[11] += 1
linkage[table].field[cCustTeTot].arrayvalue[15] += 2
linkage[table].field[cSpec3rdSi].text = "Illumination"

~we'll overwrite the tertiary abilities' expression, since we need
~to make them use primary cleric abilities

linkage[table].field[cCstS3Expr].text = "(SpecSource.cHelpClr + SpecSource.cHelpMdH+ SpecSource.cHelpMAH) & !Helper.Secondary & !Helper.Tertiary"

Now, in those scripts, can you see how it's trying to transition to the thing that owns the table that added it?

That's how custom abilities and cleric domains get to their class.

How would you change that so that it's using the method that archetypes use to transition to the class they modify?

[Frodie]

IDK, is there an archetype I can look at that moves the domains?

[Mathias]

In post #2, I gave two pieces of code - one that's used by custom abilities, the other that's used by archetypes.

Do you see the one for custom abilities in those scripts? (I see it used 4 times).
