Variant Multiclass - VMC

[Sphynx]

I realize that the VMC mods haven't been released yet, this isn't asking about how soon til we get them.

I'm trying to make one for my player and want to remove his feats at 3, 7, 11, 15, and 19th levels. There's no way to do it via the GUI (remove bonus feats doesn't remove the basic feat levels). Is there a script anyone knows of that can do it? Something like hero.FeatCount -= (heroLevel + 1)/4?

You'd probably best do this as an archetype since VMC doesn't allow for this. use the #resleft[] macro for the resFeats and just subtract one at each level you want to remove them.

Thanks Andrew, I'll try to figure this out (and yeah, I was doing it as an archetype

 

[Sphynx]

Ok, this seems to work (for anyone that's wanting to do something similar)

Eval-Script: Post-levels 1,000

var myLevel as number

myLevel = linkage[varies].field[cTotalLev].value + 1
myLevel = (myLevel / 4)

#resmax[resFeat] -= round(myLevel, 0, -1)

 

[AndrewD2]

just a note since most forget. Make sure you put the doneif for the linkage there or you can get errors sometimes (it's rare but can happen).

doneif (islinkage[varies] = 0)

Thanks boss, will do.

Wait I am confused. Sense when are VMC from Unchained not in HL? Just tested this out and works fine as I made a Fighter VMC Bard....

 

[AndrewD2]

Shadow if I read correctly he wanted to modify which feats were removed (but I don't know the mechanic well enough) if the levels he's wanting to remove them are the same than yes VMC is in.

 

[Sphynx]

Actually, I meant released for editing. (Not in the Editor).

I was making a homebrew Occultist VMC, and there was no VMC to [NEW (Copy)] from, so Archetype'd it, removed the correct feat levels, and added the Occultist stuff with -6 to level checks in the eval stuff.

 

[AndrewD2]

Oh in that case I would have just worked with the secondary class mechanic that's already in place.

 

[Sphynx]

Hmmm, didn't see that. I'll give it a go tomorrow and see if it turns out better that way.

"Secondary Class" is the term used in Pathfinder Unchained for the class that's added on, so that's what we call it in Hero Lab.
