The Advanced Player’s Guide was the book that made Pathfinder. It introduced game-changing new rules–now 2nd Edition’s version is almost here with two distinct looks!

The Advanced Player’s Guide is an important book in the decade-long history of Pathfinder. It’s one of the biggest steps away from D&D 3.5 that Paizo took, introducing new classes, new archetypes, and new ways to put together a character. Now a 2nd Edition version of the book is on the way. It introduces four new classes, the Swashbuckler, Oracle, Witch, and Investigator. And those are just a small part of the big release.

The Advanced Player’s Guide has a ton of options for every player-facing part of the game. You’ll get a ton of new ancestry options, including aasimar and tieflings (because there’s no D&D based game that tieflings won’t ascend to popularity in), as well as a ton of new archetypes and multiclass archetypes with a new look at old favorite first edition options. If you like Pathfinder 2nd Edition, you won’t want to miss this one. Pre-order it today! Be sure and check out both covers, the regular and the swanky, red limited edition cover.
