Gun Inventor

A gun inventor is a mechanical genius who crafted a prototype firearm. While not as skilled as a gunslinger, their skills with mechanics and alchemy allows them to use their weapon with

Class: Investigator

Level: 1st-18th

Replaces: Alchemy (Altered), Poison Lore, Poison Resistance, Poison Immunity, Studied Combat (Altered), Studied Strike (Altered)

Benefit: A gun inventor gains access to the following class features.

Weapon Proficiency: A gun inventor is proficient with simple weapons, plus the short sword, sword cane and all firearms.

This ability alters the investigator's proficiencies.

Mechanical Knowledge (Ex): A gun inventor gain half her level as a bonus on Knowledge (Engineering) checks, and on any Craft checks made to craft, examine, modify or repair firearms. Additionally the XXX gain the Gunsmith class feature as a gunslinger. Additionally the gun inventor can spend a point of inspiration to replicate the Quick Clear gunslinger deed.

This ability replaces the bonus to craft alchemy granted by the alchemy class features and trap sense

Studied Shot (Ex): A 2nd level gun inventor gains the Point Blank Shot as a bonus feat. At 4th level may use her studied combat bonus with ranged weapons and deal her studied strike damage with them, as long as the target of your studied strike is within 30 feet of her. However her studied combat and studied strike class features no longer apply to melee attacks.

This ability replaces poison lore and alters studied combat and studied strike.

Nimble (Ex): Starting at 2nd level, a gun inventor gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC while wearing light or no armor. Anything that causes the gun inventor to lose her Dexterity bonus to AC also causes the gunslinger to lose this dodge bonus. This bonus increases by +1 for every three levels beyond 3rd level (to a maximum of +5 at 18th level).

This ability replaces all instances of poison resistance and poison immunity..
