Druid Archetype: Nature's Warrior[PEACH]
I designed a druid archetype based on the old Geomancer Archetype, I think I did an okay job of converting over the drift mechanic. But the wording might be a little confusing.

Re: Druid Archetype: Circle of Geomancy [PEACH]
I would like to know what you think of the archetype.
Is it interesting, how is the balance?

Tweaked drift so that you have the option of keeping your drift changes when you go into wild shape, you can have them meld into your body as if they were armor or weapons, also specified that you can hide your drift changes through the use of alter self

Re: Druid Archetype: Circle of Geomancy [PEACH]
Just taking a quick look at this... It's very complicated in terms of the number of options available and having to cross-reference them left and right. Plus a lot of them overlap with each other or things you might have while wildshaped. This all means that it's hard to assess the balance or really understand the archetype's role.
Overall I'd say that it'd be better to design this like the totem warrior, with a limited selection of options at each level and more unified themes. By which I mean 'this level makes you tankier' or 'this level helps you explore the wilderness'.
Nitpicks: I'm not aware of any trait named 'Scent', nor would I say 'natural armour bonus' was a thing. Either it's natural armour, or it's an AC bonus.
Also, I was disappointed that there is almost nothing in there that I'd associate with the term 'geomancy'. I appreciate that it's a remake of something old so the name isn't your fault, but still.Lydia Seaspray by Oneris!

Re: Druid Archetype: Circle of Geomancy [PEACH]
Thank you for pointing that out, I will take a look at fixing that, and after the change that I decided to go with, I think I am going to change the name to Nature's Warrior and take a look at that prestige class in conjunction with geomancer, as I think it will work better for what this archetype has become, and I think the name works better

Drastic Change, turned the archetype into Nature's warrior, it is focused on boosting your martial ability while not in wild shape

Re: Druid Archetype: Nature's Warrior[PEACH]
So with the new spells that have just been released I have realized that part of my archetype is no longer necessary, as such I will be removing the jaw growth portion of the nature's armament and replacing it with that you learn the primal savagery cantrip if you did not already know it
