Experimental Scientist [Archetype]
Prerequisites: Knowledge (any) 4 ranks.Benefit: See below
Special: If you ever stop qualifying for this feat, you can trade it for another archetype feat you meet the prerequisites.
Archetype Feat Bonus are based on HD.
- 1 HD: You gain a +2 bonus each for 1 Craft, 1 Knowledge and 1 Profession of your choice. You may use either your Wisdom or Intelligence for trained Craft, Knowledge and Profession checks.
- 3 HD: You craft at an additional multiple of the normal crafting rate (typically making you twice as fast). You may craft non-consumable, charge-less "prototype" items. A prototype costs 40% market price to create and may be disassembled back into raw components (regaining any raw materials and XP you spent on making it). You can turn a prototype into a normal item by working in the remaining 10% market price cost later. The prototype must be worked by you for 1/2 hour per day to maintain functionality, otherwise it goes inert (but may be worked again to reactivate) for magic items or gains the Broken condition for non-magical items. This trait is obvious if it has a magical aura. Additionally, you gain a "Knowledge Specialty" or "Profession Specialty", such as Knowledge (the planes: the plane of fire) or Profession (marine biologist: whale biologist). You gain a +3 bonus on checks applying to your specialty.
- 8 HD: You may "take 10" and roll a d20 for trained Craft, Knowledge or Profession checks, taking the better result. When attempting, you automatically aid any Craft, Knowledge or Profession check you have trained.
- 15 HD: You craft at an additional multiple of your normal crafting rate. When aiding another for a trained Craft, Knowledge or Profession check, you may use your die roll (or your "take 10") in place of the primary roller's result if your result is higher.
