5E Archetypes

nichollsr · January 31st, 2016, 07:32 PM

Hi All

Ive spent the weekend playing around with the Editor on 5e and really enjoying figuring out how it works, however im now stuck and need some help.

Anyone know how to add an Archetype to a class ? Im struggling with this one.

Thanks

Well if im right, and im not very often, i think you do it via Backgrounds. Im still trying to figure it out. From what i can see though only one Background has been loaded and not all of them from the PHB so there is not a lot to use as a guideline.

So Archetypes and Backgrounds are two separate things in 5E. Which one are you talking about? In the Editor > Help > Tutorial 3 talks about how to make Archetypes

Archetypes are under class in the custom ability subtab. Now just trying to figure out how to do the variant archetypes such as path of the totem spirit's various animals.
