{"name":"Artificer","overview":"Masters of invention, artificers use ingenuity and magic to unlock extraordinary capabilities in objects. They see magic as a complex system waiting to be decoded and then harnessed in their spells and inventions. You can find everything you need to play one of these inventors in the next few sections.\r\nArtificers use a variety of tools to channel their arcane power. To cast a spell, an artificer might use alchemist's supplies to create a potent elixir, calligrapher's supplies to inscribe a sigil of power, or tinker's tools to craft a temporary charm. The magic of artificers is tied to their tools and their talents, and few other characters can produce the right tool for a job as well as an artificer.\r\n\r\nYou must have an Intelligence score of 13 or higher in order to multiclass in or out of this class.","hitdice":"d8","hitpointsfirstlevel":"8 + Constitution Modifier","hitpointsathigherlevels":"1d8 + Constitution Modifier","armorproficiencies":"Light armor, medium armor, shields","weaponproficiences":"Simple weapons","tools":"Thieves\u2019 tools, tinker\u2019s tools, one type of artisan\u2019s tools of your choice","savingthrows":"Constitution, Intelligence","skills":"Choose two from Arcana, History, Investigation, Medicine, Nature, Perception, Sleight of Hand","equipment":"You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]any two simple weapons[\/li]\r\n[li]a light crossbow and 20 bolts[\/li]\r\n[li](a) studded leather armor or (b) scale mail[\/li]\r\n[li]thieves\u2019 tools and a dungeoneer\u2019s pack[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n","spellcasting":"[b]Tools Required[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou produce your artificer spell effects through your tools. You must have a spellcasting focus-specifically thieves' tools or some kind of artisan's tool-in hand when you cast any spell with this Spellcasting feature (meaning the spell has an \"M\" component when you cast it). You must be proficient with the tool to use it in this way. See the equipment chapter in the Player's Handbook for descriptions of these tools.\r\n\r\nAfter you gain the Infuse Item feature at 2nd level, you can also use any item bearing one of your infusions as a spellcasting focus.\r\n\r\n[b]Cantrips (0-Level Spells)[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the artificer spell list. At higher levels, you learn additional artificer can trips of your choice, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Artificer table.\r\n\r\nWhen you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the artificer cantrips you know with another cantrip from the artificer spell list.\r\n\r\n[b]Preparing and Casting Spells[\/b]\r\n\r\nThe Artificer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your artificer spells. To cast one of your artificer spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\nYou prepare the list of artificer spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the artificer spell list. When you do so, choose a number of artificer spells equal to your Intelligence modifier + half your artificer level, rounded down (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots.\r\n\r\nFor example, if you are a 5th-level artificer, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With an Intelligence of 14, your list of prepared spells can include four spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell Cure Wounds, you can cast it using a lst-level or a 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells.\r\n\r\nYou can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of artificer spells requires time spent tinkering with your spellcasting focuses: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.\r\n\r\n[b]Spellcasting Ability[\/b]\r\n\r\nIntelligence is your spellcasting ability for your artificer spells; your understanding of the theory behind magic allows you to wield these spells with superior skill. You use your Intelligence whenever an artificer spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for an artificer spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.\r\n\r\nSpell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier\r\n\r\nSpell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier\r\n\r\n[b]Ritual Casting[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou can cast an artificer spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.","features":"[b]Optional Rule: Firearm Proficiency[\/b]\r\n\r\nThe secrets of gunpowder weapons have been discovered in various corners of the D&D multiverse. If your Dungeon Master uses the rules on firearms in the Dungeon Master's Guide and your artificer has been exposed to the operation of such weapons, your artificer is proficient with them.\r\n\r\n[b]Magical Tinkering[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 1st level, you've learned how to invest a spark of magic into mundane objects. To use this ability, you must have thieves' tools or artisan's tools in hand. You then touch a Tiny nonmagical object as an action and give it one of the following magical properties of your choice:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The object sheds bright light in a 5-foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet.[\/li]\r\n[li]Whenever tapped by a creature, the object emits a recorded message that can be heard up to 10 feet away. You utter the message when you bestow this property on the object, and the recording can be no more than 6 seconds long.[\/li]\r\n[li]The object continuously emits your choice of an odor or a nonverbal sound (wind, waves, chirping, or the like). The chosen phenomenon is perceivable up to 10 feet away.[\/li]\r\n[li]A static visual effect appears on one of the object's surfaces. This effect can be a picture, up to 25 words of text, lines and shapes, or a mixture of these elements, as you like.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\nThe chosen property lasts indefinitely. As an action, you can touch the object and end the property early.\r\n\r\nYou can bestow magic on multiple objects, touching one object each time you use this feature, though a single object can only bear one property at a time. The maximum number of objects you can affect with this feature at one time is equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of one object). If you try to exceed your maximum, the oldest property immediately ends, and then the new property applies.\r\n\r\n[b]Infuse Item[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 2nd level, you've gained the ability to imbue mundane items with certain magical infusions, turning those objects into magic items.\r\n\r\nInfusions Known\r\nWhen you gain this feature, pick four artificer infusions to learn. You learn additional infusions of your choice when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Infusions Known column of the Artificer table.\r\n\r\nWhenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the artificer infusions you learned with a new one.\r\n\r\nInfusing an Item\r\nWhenever you finish a long rest, you can touch a nonmagical object and imbue it with one of your artificer infusions, turning it into a magic item. An infusion works on only certain kinds of objects, as specified in the infusion's description. If the item requires attunement, you can attune yourself to it the instant you infuse the item. If you decide to attune to the item later, you must do so using the normal process for attunement (see the attunement rules in the Dungeon Master's Guide).\r\n\r\nYour infusion remains in an item indefinitely, but when you die, the infusion vanishes after a number of days equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 day). The infusion also vanishes if you replace your knowledge of the infusion.\r\n\r\nYou can infuse more than one nonmagical object at the end of a long rest; the maximum number of objects appears in the Infused Items column of the Artificer table. You must touch each of the objects, and each of your infusions can be in only one object at a time. Moreover, no object can bear more than one of your infusions at a time. If you try to exceed your maximum number of infusions, the oldest infusion ends, and then the new infusion applies.\r\n\r\nIf an infusion ends on an item that contains other things, like a bag of holding, its contents harmlessly appear in and around its space.\r\n\r\n[b]Artificer Specialist[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you choose the type of specialist you are. Your choice grants you features at 5th level and again at 9th and 15th level.\r\n\r\n[b]The Right Tool for the Job[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you've learned how to produce exactly the tool you need: with thieves' tools or artisan's tools in hand, you can magically create one set of artisan's tools in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you. This creation requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, which can coincide with a short or long rest. Though the product of magic, the tools are nonmagical, and they vanish when you use this feature again.\r\n\r\n[b]Ability Score Improvement[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you reach 4th level, 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.\r\n\r\n[b]Tool Expertise[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 6th level, your proficiency bonus is now doubled for any ability check you make that uses your proficiency with a tool.\r\n\r\n[b]Flash of Genius[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 7th level, you've gained the ability to come up with solutions under pressure. When you or another creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an ability check or a saving throw, you can use your reaction to add your Intelligence modifier to the roll.\r\n\r\nYou can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Magic Item Adept[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you reach 10th level, you achieve a profound understanding of how to use and make magic items:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You can attune to up to four magic items at once.[\/li]\r\n[li]If you craft a magic item with a rarity of common or uncommon, it takes you a quarter of the normal time, and it costs you half as much of the usual gold.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Spell-Storing Item[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 11th level, you can now store a spell in an object. Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch one simple or martial weapon or one item that you can use as a spellcasting focus, and you store a spell in it, choosing a lst- or 2nd-level spell from the artificer spell list that requires 1 action to cast (you needn't have it prepared).\r\n\r\nWhile holding the object, a creature can take an action to produce the spell's effect from it, using your spellcasting ability modifier. If the spell requires concentration, the creature must concentrate. The spell stays in the object until it's been used a number of times equal to twice your Intelligence modifier (minimum of twice) or until you use this feature again to store a spell in an object.\r\n\r\n[b]Magic Item Savant[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 14th level, your skill with magic items deepens more:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You can attune to up to five magic items at once.[\/li]\r\n[li]You ignore all class, race, spell and level requirements on attuning to or using a magic item.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Magic Item Master[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 18th level, you can attune up to six magic items at once.\r\n\r\n[b]Soul of Artifice[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 20th level, you develop a mystical connection to your magic items, which you can draw on for protection:\r\n\r\nYou gain a +1 bonus to all saving throws per magic item you are currently attuned to.\r\nIf you're reduced to 0 hit points but not killed out-right, you can use your reaction to end one of your artificer infusions, causing you to drop to 1 hit point instead of 0.\r\n\r\n[center]Artificer Infusions[\/center][b]Arcane Propulsion Armor[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 14th-level artificer\r\nItem: A suit of armor (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nThe wearer of this armor gains these benefits:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The wearer's walking speed increases by 5 feet.[\/li]\r\n[li]The armor includes gauntlets, each of which is a magic melee weapon that can be wielded only when the hand is holding nothing. The wearer is proficient with the gauntlets, and each one deals 1d8 force damage on a hit and has the thrown property, with a normal range of 20 feet and a long range of 60 feet. When thrown, the gauntlet detaches and flies at the attack's target, then immediately returns to the wearer and reattaches.[\/li]\r\n[li]The armor can't be removed against the wearer's will.[\/li]\r\n[li]If the wearer is missing any limbs, the armor replaces those limbs - hands, arms, feet, legs, or similar appendages. The replacements function identically to the body parts they replace.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Armor of Magical Strength[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A suit of armor (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nThis armor has 6 charges. The wearer can expend the armor's charges in the following ways:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]When the wearer makes a Strength check or a Strength saving throw, it can expend 1 charge to add a bonus to the roll equal to its Intelligence modifier.[\/li]\r\n[li]If the creature would be knocked prone, it can use its reaction to expend 1 charge to avoid being knocked prone.[\/li]\r\n[li]The armor regains 1d6 expended charges daily at dawn.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Armor of Tools (UA)[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A suit of armor\r\n\r\nAs an action, a creature wearing this infused armor can integrate into it artisan\u2019s tools or thieves\u2019 tools. The tools remain integrated in the armor for 8 hours or until the wearer removes the tools as an action. The armor can have only one tool integrated at a time. The wearer can add its Intelligence modifier to any ability checks it makes with the integrated tool. The wearer must have a hand free to use the tool.\r\n\r\n[b]Boots of the Winding Path[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 6th-level artificer\r\nItem: A pair of boots (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nWhile wearing these boots, a creature can teleport up to 15 feet as a bonus action to an unoccupied space the creature can see. The creature must have occupied that space at some point during the current turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Enhanced Arcane Focus[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A rod, staff or wand (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nWhile holding this item, a creature gains +1 bonus to spell attack rolls. In addition, the creature ignores half cover when making a spell attack.\r\n\r\nThe bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.\r\n\r\n[b]Enhanced Defense[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A suit of armor or a shield\r\n\r\nA creature gains a +1 bonus to Armor Class while wearing (armor) or wielding (shield) the infused item.\r\n\r\nThe bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.\r\n\r\n[b]Enhanced Weapon[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A simple or martial weapon\r\n\r\nThis magic weapon grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it.\r\n\r\nThe bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.\r\n\r\n[b]Helm of Awareness[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 10th-level artificer\r\nItem: A helmet (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nWhile wearing this helmet, a creature has advantage on initiative rolls. In addition, the wearer can\u2019t be surprised, provided it isn\u2019t incapacitated.\r\n\r\n[b]Homunculus Servant[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A gem or crystal worth at least 100 gp\r\n\r\nYou learn intricate methods for magically creating a special homunculus that serves you. The item you infuse serves as the creature's heart, around which the creature's body instantly forms.\r\n\r\nYou determine the homunculus's appearance. Some artificers prefer mechanical-looking birds, whereas some like winged vials or miniature, animate cauldrons.\r\n\r\nThe homunculus is friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See this creature's game statistics in the Homunculus Servant stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places.\r\n\r\nIn combat, the homunculus shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the homunculus can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.\r\n\r\nThe homunculus regains 2d6 hit points if the mending spell is cast on it. If you or the homunculus dies, it vanishes, leaving its heart in its space.\r\n\r\n[b]Mind Sharpener[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A suit of armor or robes\r\n\r\nThe infused item can send a jolt to the wearer to refocus their mind. The item has 4 charges. When the wearer fails a Constitution saving throw to maintain concentration on a spell, the wearer can use its reaction to expend 1 of the item's charges to succeed instead. The item regains 1d4 expended charges daily at dawn.\r\n\r\n[b]Radiant Weapon[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 6th-level artificer\r\nItem: A simple or martial weapon (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nThis magic weapon grants a + 1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. While holding it, the wielder can take a bonus action to cause it to shed bright light in a 30-foot radius and dim light for an additional 30 feet. The wielder can extinguish the light as a bonus action.\r\n\r\nThe weapon has 4 charges. As a reaction immediately after being hit by an attack, the wielder can expend 1 charge and cause the attacker to be blinded until the end of the attacker's next turn, unless the attacker succeeds on a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC. The weapon regains 1d4 expended charges daily at dawn.\r\n\r\n[b]Repeating Shot[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A simple or martial weapon with the ammunition property (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nThis magic weapon grants a + 1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it when it's used to make a ranged attack, and it ignores the loading property if it has it.\r\n\r\nIf you load no ammunition in the weapon, it produces its own, automatically creating one piece of magic ammunition when you make a ranged attack with it. The ammunition created by the weapon vanishes the instant after it hits or misses a target.\r\n\r\n[b]Replicate Magic Item[\/b]\r\n\r\nUsing this infusion, you replicate a particular magic item. You can learn this infusion multiple times; each time you do so, choose a magic item that you can make with it, picking from the Replicable Items tables. A table's title tells you the level you must be in the class to choose an item from the table. Alternatively, you can choose the magic item from among the common magic items in the game, not including potions or scrolls.\r\n\r\nIn the tables, an item's entry tells you whether the item requires attunement. See the item's description in the Dungeon Master's Guide for more information about it, including the type of object required for its making.\r\n\r\nIf you have Xanathar's Guide to Everything, you can choose from among the common magic items in that book when you pick a magic item you can replicate with this infusion.\r\n\r\n[center]Replicable Magic Items (2nd-Level Artificer)[\/center][center]Magic Item Attunement[\/center][center]Alchemy Jug No[\/center][center]Bag of Holding No[\/center][center]Cap of Water Breathing No[\/center][center]Goggles of Night No[\/center][center]Rope of Climbing No[\/center][center]Sending Stones No[\/center][center]Wand of Magic Detection No[\/center][center]Wand of Secrets No[\/center][center]Replicable Magic Items (6th-Level Artificer)[\/center][center]Magic Item Attunement[\/center][center]Boots of Elvenkind No[\/center][center]Cloak of Elvenkind Yes[\/center][center]Cloak of the Manta Ray No[\/center][center]Eyes of Charming Yes[\/center][center]Gloves of Thievery No[\/center][center]Lantern of Revealing No[\/center][center]Pipes of Haunting No[\/center][center]Ring of Water Walking No[\/center][center]Replicable Magic Items (10th-level artificer)[\/center][center]Magic Item Attunement[\/center][center]Boots of Striding and Springing Yes[\/center][center]Boots of the Winterlands Yes[\/center][center]Bracers of Archery Yes[\/center][center]Brooch of Shielding Yes[\/center][center]Cloak of Protection Yes[\/center][center]Eyes of the Eagle Yes[\/center][center]Gauntlets of Ogre Power Yes[\/center][center]Gloves of Missile Snaring Yes[\/center][center]Gloves of Swimming and Climbing Yes[\/center][center]Hat of Disguise Yes[\/center][center]Headband of Intellect Yes[\/center][center]Helm of Telepathy Yes[\/center][center]Medallion of Thoughts Yes[\/center][center]Necklace of Adaptation Yes[\/center][center]Periapt of Wound Closure Yes[\/center][center]Pipes of the Sewers Yes[\/center][center]Quiver of Ehlonna No[\/center][center]Ring of Jumping Yes[\/center][center]Ring of Mind Shielding Yes[\/center][center]Slippers of Spider Climbing Yes[\/center][center]Ventilating Lungs (Eberron: Rising from the Last War) Yes[\/center][center]Winged Boots Yes[\/center][center]Replicable Magic Items (14th-level artificer)[\/center][center]Magic Item Attunement[\/center][center]Amulet of Health Yes[\/center][center]Arcane Propulsion Arm (Eberron: Rising from the Last War) Yes[\/center][center]Belt of Hill Giant Strength Yes[\/center][center]Boots of Levitation Yes[\/center][center]Boots of Speed Yes[\/center][center]Bracers of Defense Yes[\/center][center]Cloak of the Bat Yes[\/center][center]Dimensional Shackles No[\/center][center]Gem of Seeing Yes[\/center][center]Horn of Blasting No[\/center][center]Ring of Free Action Yes[\/center][center]Ring of Protection Yes[\/center][center]Ring of the Ram Yes[\/center]\r\n[b]Repulsion Shield[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 6th-level artificer\r\nItem: A shield (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nA creature gains a +1 bonus to Armor Class while wielding this shield.\r\n\r\nThe shield has 4 charges.

The shield regains 1d4 expended charges daily at dawn.\r\n\r\n[b]Resistant Armor[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 6th-level artificer\r\nItem: A suit of armor (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nWhile wearing this armor, a creature has resistance to one of the following damage types, which you choose when you infuse the item: acid, cold, fire, force, lightning, necrotic, poison, psychic, radiant, or thunder.\r\n\r\n[b]Returning Weapon[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A simple or martial weapon with the thrown property\r\n\r\nThis magic weapon grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it, and it returns to the wielder\u2019s hand immediately after it is used to make a ranged attack.\r\n\r\n[b]Spell-Refueling Ring[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 6th-level artificer\r\nItem: A ring (requires attunement)\r\n\r\nWhile wearing this ring, the creature can recover one expended spell slot as an action. The recovered slot can be of 3rd level or lower. Once used, the ring can't be used again until the next dawn.\r\nAdjustable Tool Set\r\nItem: a set of artisan's tools (requires attunement)\r\nThe wielder is considered proficient with this magical set\r\nof tools, and as an action, they can transform this set of\r\ntools into another set of artisan's tools of their choice.\r\n\r\n[b]Arcane Implement[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A rod or wand\r\nThis tiny length of wood is infused with an artificer cantrip of your choice. As an action, a creature can produce the imbued cantrip, using your spellcasting modifier to cast the spell.\r\n\r\n[b]Arm Launcher[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A glove or gauntlet\r\nThis tiny magical launcher can be loaded with a Tiny\r\nobject, including but not limited to; ball bearings, a vial of acid, or holy water.

This bonus becomes +2 at 14th level.\r\n\r\n[b]Goggles of Clearsight[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A pair of goggles or glasses\r\nWhile wearing these goggles, the wearer can see through lightly obscured areas without disadvantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks. In addition, the wearer no longer suffers the negative effects from the Sunlight Sensativity trait, and they have advantage on saving throws to resist being blinded.\r\n\r\n[b]Power Whip[\/b]\r\n\r\nItem: A whip or chain\r\nThis magic weapon grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it, and it's damage die increases to 1d8.\r\n\r\nThis bonus increases at 10th level (+2) and 14th level (+3).\r\n\r\n[b]Immovable Boots[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 6th level artificer\r\nItem: A pair of boots (requires attunement)\r\nWhen the user is standing on a flat surface, they can use an action to activate the boots, magically fixing the user in place.

While the blade exists, this magic item is a simple weapon with the finesse property. The luminous blade emits bright light in a 15-foot radius and dim light for an additional 15 feet. The light is sunlight.\r\n\r\nThe wielder gains a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this weapon, which deals 1d8 radiant damage on hit. Undead take an additional 1d8 radiant damage.

Upon infusion, choose a command word and one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, poison, or lightning. As a bonus action, the wielder can speak the command word and cause elemental energy to burst forth from the weapon until the command word is spoken again. On hit, the weapon deals an additional 1d4 of the elemental damage.\r\n\r\nThe additional damage becomes 1d6 at 14th level.\r\n\r\n[b]Metamorphosis Armor[\/b]\r\n\r\nPrerequisite: 10th level artificer\r\nItem: a suit of armor (requires attunement)\r\nThis magic suit of armor has 4 charges.

As an action, you can turn a suit of armor you are wearing into Arcane Armor, provided you have smith's tools in hand.\r\n\r\nYou gain the following benefits while wearing this armor:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]If the armor normally has a Strength requirement, the arcane armor lacks this requirement for you.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can use the arcane armor as a spellcasting focus for your artificer spells.[\/li]\r\n[li]The armor attaches to you and can\u2019t be removed against your will. It also expands to cover your entire body, although you can retract or deploy the helmet as a bonus action. The armor replaces any missing limbs, functioning identically to a body part it is replacing.[\/li]\r\n[li]The armor continues to be Arcane Armor until you don another suit of armor or you die.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Armor Model[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 3rd level, you can customize your Arcane Armor. When you do so, choose one of the following armor models: Guardian or Infiltrator. The model you choose gives you special benefits while you wear it.\r\n\r\nEach model includes a special weapon. When you attack with that weapon, you can add your Intelligence modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, to the attack and damage rolls.\r\n\r\nYou can change the armor's model whenever you finish a short or long rest, provided you have smith's tools in hand.\r\n\r\n[ol]\r\n[li]Guardian. You design your armor to be in the front line of conflict. It has the following features:[\/li]\r\n[\/ol]\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Thunder Gauntlets. Each of the armor's gauntlets counts as a simple melee weapon while you aren't holding anything in it, and it deals 1d8 thunder damage on a hit. A creature hit by the gauntlet has disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you until the start of your next turn, as the armor magically emits a distracting pulse when the creature attacks someone else.[\/li]\r\n[li]Defensive Field. As a bonus action, you can gain temporary hit points equal to your level in this class, replacing any temporary hit points you already have. You lose these temporary hit points if you doff the armor. You can use this bonus action a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[ol]\r\n[li]Infiltrator. You customize your armor for subtle undertakings. It has the following features:[\/li]\r\n[\/ol]\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Lightning Launcher. A gemlike node appears on one of your armored fists or on the chest (your choice). It counts as a simple ranged weapon, with a normal range of 90 feet and a long range of 300 feet, and it deals 1d6 lightning damage on a hit. Once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with it, you can deal an extra 1d6 lightning damage to that target.[\/li]\r\n[li]Powered Steps. Your walking speed increases by 5 feet.[\/li]\r\n[li]Dampening Field. You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. If the armor normally imposes disadvantage on such checks, the advantage and disadvantage cancel each other, as normal.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Armor Modifications[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 9th level, you learn how to use your artificer infusions to specially modify your Arcane Armor. That armor now counts as separate items for the purposes of your Infuse Items feature: armor (the chest piece), boots, helmet, and the armor's special weapon. Each of those items can bear one of your infusions, and the infusions transfer over if you change your armor's model with the Armor Model feature. In addition, the maximum number of items you can infuse at once increases by 2, but those extra items must be part of your Arcane Armor.\r\n\r\n[b]Perfected Armor[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 15th level, your Arcane Armor gains additional benefits based on its model, as shown below.\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Guardian. When a Huge or smaller creature you can see ends its turn within 30 feet of you, you can use your reaction to magically force the creature to make a Strength saving throw against your spell save DC, pulling the creature up to 30 feet toward you to an unoccupied space. If you pull the target to a space within 5 feet of you, you can make a melee weapon attack against it as part of this reaction. You can use this reaction a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a long rest.[\/li]\r\n[li]Infiltrator. Any creature that takes lightning damage from your Lightning Launcher glimmers with magical light until the start of your next turn. The glimmering creature sheds dim light in a 5-foot radius, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls against you, as the light jolts it if it attacks you. In addition, the next attack roll against it has advantage, and if that attack hits, the target takes an extra 1d6 lightning damage.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[center][b][u]Artillerist[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nAn Artillerist specializes in using magic to hurl energy, projectiles, and explosions on a battlefield. This destructive power is valued by armies in the wars on many different worlds. And when war passes, some members of this specialization seek to build a more peaceful world by using their powers to fight the resurgence of strife. The world-hopping gnome artificer Vi has been especially vocal about making things right: \"It's about time we fixed things instead of blowing them all to hell.\"\r\n\r\n[b]Tool Proficiency[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you adopt this specialization at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with woodcarver's tools.

These spells count as artificer spells for you, but they don\u2019t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.\r\n\r\n[center]Artillerist Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Artillerist Spells[\/center][center]3rd Shield, Thunderwave[\/center][center]5th Scorching Ray, Shatter[\/center][center]9th Fireball, Wind Wall[\/center][center]13th Ice Storm, Wall of Fire[\/center][center]17th Cone of Cold, Wall of Force[\/center][b]Eldritch Cannon[\/b]\r\n\r\nAlso at 3rd level, you've learned how to create a magical cannon. Using woodcarver's tools or smith's tools, you can take an action to magically create a Small or Tiny eldritch cannon in an unoccupied space on a horizontal surface within 5 feet of you. A Small eldritch cannon occupies its space, and a Tiny one can be held in one hand. Once you create a cannon, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest or until you expend a spell slot to create one. You can have only one cannon at a time and can't create one while your cannon is present.\r\n\r\nThe cannon is a magical object. Regardless of size, the cannon has an AC of 18 and a number of hit points equal to five times your artificer level. It is immune to poison damage and psychic damage. If it is forced to make an ability check or a saving throw, treat all its ability scores as 10 (+0). If the mending spell is cast on it, it regains 2d6 hit points. It disappears if it is reduced to 0 hit points or after 1 hour. You can dismiss it early as an action.\r\n\r\nWhen you create the cannon, you determine its appearance and whether it has legs. You also decide which type it is, choosing from the options on the Eldritch Cannons table. On each of your turns, you can take a bonus action to cause the cannon to activate if you are within 60 feet of it. As part of the same bonus action, you can direct the cannon to walk or climb up to 15 feet to an unoccupied space, provided it has legs.\r\n\r\n[center]Eldritch Cannon[\/center][left][ul]\r\n[li]Flamethrower The cannon exhales fire in an adjacent 15-foot cone that you designate. Each creature in that area must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 2d8 fire damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one. The fire ignites any flammable objects in the area that aren't being worn or carried.[\/li]\r\n[li]Force Ballista Make a ranged spell attack, originating from the cannon, at one creature or object within 120 feet of it. On a hit, the target takes 2d8 force damage, and if the target is a creature, it is pushed up to 5 feet away from the cannon.[\/li]\r\n[li]Protector The cannon emits a burst of positive energy that grants itself and each creature of your choice within 10 feet of it a number of temporary hit points equal to 1d8 + your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[\/left][b]Arcane Firearm[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 5th level, You know how to turn a wand, staff, or rod into an arcane firearm, a conduit for your destructive spells. When you finish a long rest, you can use woodcarver's tools to carve special sigils into a wand, staff, or rod and thereby turn it into your arcane firearm. The sigils disappear from the object if you later carve them on a different item. The sigils otherwise last indefinitely.\r\n\r\nYou can use your arcane firearm as a spellcasting focus for your artificer spells. When you cast an artificer spell through the firearm, roll a d8, and you gain a bonus to one of the spell's damage rolls equal to the number rolled.\r\n\r\n[b]Explosive Cannon[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 9th level, every eldritch cannon you create is more destructive:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The cannon's damage rolls all increase by 1d8.[\/li]\r\n[li]As an action, you can command the cannon to detonate if you are within 60 feet of it. Doing so destroys the cannon and forces each creature within 20 feet of it to make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 3d8 force damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Fortified Position[\/b]\r\n\r\nBy 15th level, you\u2019re a master at forming well-defended emplacements using Eldritch Cannon:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You and your allies have half cover while within 10 feet of a cannon you create with Eldritch Cannon, as a result of a shimmering field of magical protection that the cannon emits.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can now have two cannons at the same time. You can create two with the same action (but not the same spell slot), and you can activate both of them with the same bonus action. You determine whether the cannons are identical to each other or different. You can't create a third cannon while you have two.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[center][b][u]Battle Smith[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nArmies require protection, and someone has to put things back together if defenses fail. A combination of protector and medic, a Battle Smith is an expert at defending others and repairing both materiel and personnel. To aid in their work, Battle Smiths are accompanied by a steel defender, a protective companion of their own creation. Many soldiers tell stories of nearly dying before being saved by a Battle Smith and a steel defender.\r\n\r\nIn the world of Eberron, Battle Smiths played a key role in House Cannith's work on battle constructs and the original warforged, and after the Last War, these artificers led efforts to aid those who were injured in the war's horrific battles.\r\n\r\n[b]Tool Proficiency[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you adopt this specialization at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with smith's tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[b]Battle Smith Spells[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 3rd level, you always have certain spells prepared after you reach particular levels in this class, as shown in the Battle Smith Spells table.

It's friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Steel Defender stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. You determine the creature's appearance and whether it has two legs or four; your choice has no effect on its game statistics.\r\n\r\nIn combat, the defender shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the defender can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.\r\n\r\nIf the Mending spell is cast on it, it regains 2d6 hit points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use your smith's tools as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The steel defender returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored.\r\n\r\nAt the end of a long rest, you can create a new steel defender if you have smith's tools with you. If you already have a defender from this feature, the first one immediately perishes. The defender also perishes if you die.\r\n\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Arcane Jolt[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 9th level, you've learn new ways to channel arcane energy to harm or heal. When either you hit a target with a magic weapon attack or your steel defender hits a target, you can channel magical energy through the strike to create one of the following effects:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The target takes an extra 2d6 force damage.[\/li]\r\n[li]Choose one creature or object you can see within 30 feet of the target. Healing energy flows into the chosen recipient, restoring 2d6 hit points to it.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can use this energy a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), but you can do so no more than once on a turn. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Improved Defender[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 15th level, your Arcane Jolt and steel defender become more powerful:\r\n\r\nThe extra damage and the healing of your Arcane Jolt both increase to 4d6.\r\nYour steel defender gains a +2 bonus to Armor Class.\r\nWhenever your steel defender uses its Deflect Attack, the attacker takes force damage equal to 1d4 + your Intelligence modifier.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Forge Adept[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nThe daashor artificers of the Dhakaani Empire were the finest weaponsmiths in Khorvaire\u2019s history.

If you\u2019re dar, you learned these techniques from the masters of your clan. Are you content to follow ancient traditions, or do you want to add your own innovations? If you\u2019re not Dhakaani, did you learn these techniques from a daashor mentor? Did you steal this knowledge?

You gain proficiency with martial weapons. Additionally, when you attack with a magic weapon, you can use your Intelligence modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack and damage rolls.\r\n\r\n[b]Ghall'Shaarat[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you learn to imbue a weapon with a fraction of your spirit. The Dhakaani daashors called this weapon the ghaal\u2019shaarat, Goblin for \u201cmighty blade.\u201d Imbuing your ghaal\u2019shaarat works like infusing an item, but does not count toward your maximum number of infused items. When you finish a long rest, you can touch a magic or nonmagical simple or martial melee weapon, which becomes your ghaal\u2019shaarat.\r\n\r\nOnce imbued, your ghaal\u2019shaarat is a magic weapon that grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls, unless the base weapon you imbued already grants a higher bonus. This bonus increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to +2 at 8th level and +3 at 13th level. If the weapon you imbued has the thrown property, it returns to your hand immediately after it is used to make a ranged attack.\r\n\r\nYour ghaal\u2019shaarat\u2019s benefits remain until the weapon is destroyed or until you use this ability to imbue a new item with this power. Other creatures can\u2019t benefit from your ghaal\u2019shaarat\u2019s powers, and to them, it functions as the unimbued weapon did.\r\n\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Runes of War[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 9th level, you gain the ability to enhance the weapons of your squad, targeting the damage to the weakness of your enemies. As an action, you can activate an aura that extends from you in a 30-foot radius. The aura moves with you, centered on you, and lasts for 1 minute or until your concentration ends (as if you were casting a spell).\r\n\r\nWhen you activate this aura, choose one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder. Each creature of your choice in the aura deals an extra 1d4 damage of the chosen type when it hits with a weapon attack.\r\n\r\nYou can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses after a long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Perfect Weapon[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 15th level, you learn how to imbue your ghaal\u2019shaarat with additional power, and how to draw on it in time of need. The first time you attack with your ghaal\u2019shaarat on your turn, you can transfer some or all of its bonus to your armor class, instead of using the bonus on any attacks that turn. For every 1 you reduce your attack and damage rolls by, you gain +1 to your AC. As long as you continue holding your ghaal\u2019shaarat, the AC bonus remains in effect until the start of your next turn.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, when you finish a long rest, you can select one of the following benefits. Until you finish your next long rest, you gain the selected benefit whenever you\u2019re holding your ghaal\u2019shaarat.\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You have resistance to psychic damage, and you can\u2019t be charmed or frightened.[\/li]\r\n[li]You use your ghaal\u2019shaarat to channel the elements. When you select this ability, select one of the following damage types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder. When you hit with your ghaal\u2019shaarat, the target takes an extra 1d6 damage of the chosen type.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[center][b][u]Maverick[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nIn the world of artifice, the Maverick is a jack of all trades and master of none. A Maverick is always experimenting with new designs, forever abandoning yesterday\u2019s work in pursuit of a new obsession. While often dismissed by other artificers as eccentric amateurs, in their refusal to follow established tradition, a Maverick may stumble on remarkable breakthroughs\u2014though their idiosyncratic techniques can rarely be replicated by others.\r\n\r\n[b]Arcane Breakthroughs[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 3rd level, you gain amazing insights into spell effects beyond the reach of most artificers. Choose one of the following classes: bard, cleric, druid, paladin, ranger, sorcerer, warlock, or wizard. This class\u2019s spells become part of your Breakthrough spell list. You can choose an additional class and add its spells to your Breakthrough spell list at 5th, 9th, 13th, and 17th levels.\r\n\r\nWhen you change your list of prepared artificer spells after a long rest, you can prepare an additional 1st-level spell. This spell must be from your Breakthrough spell list. When you reach certain levels in this class, you increase the number of Breakthrough spells that you can prepare. You can prepare an additional 2nd-level spell at 5th level, an additional 3rd-level spell at 9th level, an additional 4th-level spell at 13th level, and an additional 5th-level spell at 17th level. These prepared spells don\u2019t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell you\u2019ve prepared using this feature, it\u2019s considered to be an artificer spell for you, and Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for it. When you swap a prepared Breakthrough spell for a new spell, you lose any ongoing benefits from having cast it (such as a steed summoned by find steed).\r\n\r\n[b]Cantrip Specialist[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou excel at producing minor magical effects\u2014and at abandoning your current projects to pursue new ideas. Starting at 3rd level you gain the following benefits:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You know one additional cantrip beyond what\u2019s normally allowed for an artificer of your level.[\/li]\r\n[li]When you finish a short rest (instead of when you gain a level in this class), you can replace one of the artificer cantrips you know with another cantrip from the artificer spell list or your Breakthrough spell list. This cantrip is considered an artificer cantrip for you.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Cantrip Savant[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you continue to develop your talent for the simplest spells. You gain the following benefits:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]When casting an artificer cantrip, you gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls and to your artificer spell save DC unless your spellcasting focus grants a higher bonus. This bonus increases when you reach certain levels in this class, increasing to +2 at 9th level and +3 at 15th level.[\/li]\r\n[li]As an action, you can replace an artificer cantrip you know with a different cantrip from the artificer spell list or your Breakthrough spell list. Once you use this feature, you can\u2019t use it again until you finish a long rest.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Superior Breakthoughs[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 9th level, when you cast one of the spells you prepared with Arcane Breakthroughs, you can do so as if the spell was cast using a spell slot two levels higher than the spell slot you expend.\r\nYou can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1). You regain all expended uses after you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Work in Progress[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 9th level, you can ready half-formed projects for easy completion when needed. As an action, you can replace any prepared artificer spell with any other spell from the artificer spell list, which then counts as a prepared spell for you.\r\n\r\nOnce you use this feature, you can\u2019t use it again until you finish a short or a long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Final Breakthrough[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 15th level, you gain one additional spell slot of each spell level you can prepare. These spell slots can only be used to cast the bonus spells granted by your Arcane Breakthroughs. As you gain levels in this class and are able to prepare 5th-level artificer spells, you gain an additional spell slot of that level.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Stitcher[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nStitchers are artificers that, through extensive anatomical study, have come to see our own bodies as yet another machine to be harnessed for a myriad of purposes. With this realization comes a dark temptation. While stitchers could make excellent doctors and surgeons, their reputation as corpse obsessed mad scientists most often leaves them shunned and isolated from others. Despite the common folk's stubborn rejection of the reuse of their loved one's remains, every stitcher knows that a corpse is a resource that should never be wasted.\r\n\r\n[b]Tool Proficiency[\/b]\r\n\r\n3rd-level Stitcher feature\r\n\r\nWhen you adopt this specialization at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with leatherworker's tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[b]Stitcher Spells[\/b]\r\n\r\n3rd-level Stitcher feature\r\n\r\nStarting at 3rd level, you always have certain spells prepared after you reach particular levels in this class, as shown in the Stitcher Spells table. These spells count as artificer spells for you, but they don\u2019t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.\r\n\r\n[center]Stitcher Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Stitcher Spells[\/center][center]3rd Cure Wounds, Inflict Wounds[\/center][center]5th Blindness\/Deafness, Gentle Repose[\/center][center]9th Revivify, Summon Undead[\/center][center]13th Blight, Shadow of Moil[\/center][center]17th Mass Cure Wounds, Negative Energy Flood[\/center][b]Stitched Minions[\/b]\r\n\r\n3rd-level Stitcher feature\r\n\r\nYou learn to raise corpses, reusing them to create minions. Choose a corpse of a Medium or Small humanoid within 5 feet of you. You can spend 10 minutes using your leatherworker's tools to repair and raise the corpse, creating an Stitched Minion. It's friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Stitched Minion stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. Your Stitched Minions have the appearance of the creature you created it from and are protected from further decay. They are proficient with all simple weapons and all the artisan's tools you're proficient with. Whenever you infuse an item with your Infuse Item feature and that item requires attunement, you can attune one of your Stitched Minions to it the instant you infuse the item.\r\n\r\nIn combat, your Stitched Minions share your initiative count, but they take their turn immediately after yours. They can move and use their reaction on their own, but the only action they can take on their turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command them to take another action (If you control multiple minions and golems, you can command any or all of them at the same time, mentally issuing individual commands to each one). That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, your Stitched Minions can take any action of their choice, not just Dodge.\r\n\r\nIf the Mending spell is cast on a Stitched Minion, it regains 2d6 hit points. You can have a maximum number of Stitched Minions equal to your Proficiency bonus. If you try to exceed your maximum number of Stitched Minions, the oldest minion dies and reverts to a corpse.\r\n\r\nYou can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus and you regain all expended uses of this feature when you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n[block:759713]\r\n\r\n[b]Skilled Subordinates[\/b]\r\nAdditionally at 3rd level, your Stitched Minions can assist you in crafting magic items. Whenever you craft a magic item with your minions or golems, you can complete it twice as quickly as you would otherwise.\r\n\r\n[b]Professor of Anatomy[\/b]\r\n\r\n5th-level Stitcher feature\r\n\r\nBeginning at 5th level, your knowledge of anatomy allows you to more effectively use spells that effect the body. Whenever you cast a spell that deals necrotic damage to a creature, add your Intelligence modifier to the damage that creature would take.\r\n\r\nIn addition, whenever you cast a spell that restores hit points to a creature, add your Intelligence modifier to the number of hit points that creature would regain.\r\n\r\n[b]Stitched Golems[\/b]\r\nStarting at 9th level, your fleshcraft allows you combine your minions into a single powerful golem. Choose three of your Stitched Minions within 5 feet of you. You can spend 10 minutes using your leatherworker's tools to stitch together your minions, creating an Stitched Golem. It's friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Stitched Golem stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places.\r\n\r\nThe same rules you use for your Stitched Minions apply to your Stitched Golems, with the following exceptions.\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]One Stitched Golem counts as three Stitched Minions for the purposes of tracking your maximum number of minions.[\/li]\r\n[li]Your Stitched Golems are also proficient with all martial weapons and shields.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\nOnce you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n\r\n[block:759811]\r\n\r\n[b]Channeling Field[\/b]\r\nBeginning at 15th level, you learn to generate an arcane field that allows you to proliferate your spells through your creations en masse. When you cast a spell during your turn, you can expend additional spell slots of the same level as the spell you cast to copy it. These copies do not require additional material components to cast. The original spell and these copies must be delivered through you or any minion or golem you currently control within 120 feet of you. You, your minions, and your golems can each only channel one instance of the spell.\r\n\r\nOnce you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Aeronaut[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nOne of the most dangerous obsessions an artificer can pursue has always been mechanical flight. Many strive for this lofty goal, and all but the most dedicated, and often the most foolhardy, artificers fail in their pursuits. Experiments that end in disastrous explosions, catastrophic falls from the sky, and deadly malfunctions are not out of the norm for an Aeronaut perfecting their mechanical flying machine.\r\n\r\nYou constantly strive to achieve the lofty goal of every Aeronaut, the creation of an arcane flying machine.\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you become an Aeronaut Specialist at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with woodcarver's tools. If you are already proficient in woodcarver's tools you instead gain proficiency with another type of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[center]Aeronaut Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd feather fall, zephyr strike XGtE[\/center][center]5th dust devil XGtE, warding wind XGtE[\/center][center]9th fly, wind wall[\/center][center]13th death ward, summon elemental (air) TCoE[\/center][center]17th control winds XGtE, steel wind strike XGtE[\/center]\r\n[b]Flying Machine[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 3rd level, at the end of a long rest, you can use your woodcarver's tools to construct a Flying Machine. You choose the Machine's appearance, but it has no effect on its abilities. Your Flying Machine has the following features:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]It is a magic item that requires attunement, and it can be used as a spellcasting focus for your artificer spells.[\/li]\r\n[li]It is built to fit you, and can be worn over light armor.[\/li]\r\n[li]When you fall, and aren't incapacitated, you subtract up to 100 feet from your fall when calculating falling damage, and can move 2 feet horizontally every 1 foot you fall.[\/li]\r\n[li]You gain a flying speed of 15 feet, which increases as you gain levels in this class; at 5th level (20 feet), 9th level (30 feet), and in finally at 15th level (60 feet).[\/li]\r\n[li]You can only have one Flying Machine at a time, and creating another causes the other to fall into disrepair.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Aerial Maneuvers[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have greatly improved the speed of your Flying Machine. Starting at 9th level, while wearing your Flying Machine, you can take the Dash action as a bonus action on your turn.\r\n\r\nIn addition, while you have your flying machine equipped, you gain a bonus to your Dexterity ability checks and saving throws equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).\r\n\r\n[b]Master Aeronaut[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have become a master of Aeronaut artifice. Beginning at 15th level, while wearing your Flying Machine and you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed, and only half damage if you fail.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Archivist[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nFor centuries chroniclers have sought the best way to store vast amounts of information. Where most are satisfied with scrolls, Archivists strove for something greater. They have learned to store libraries worth of information in a single object, awakening the first Artificial Minds. Working in tandem with these wondrous Minds, Archivists wield the potentially limitless power of these arcane intelligences.\r\nHow will you use your ability to create artificial intelligence?\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you become an Archivist Specialist at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with calligrapher's supplies. If you are already proficient in calligrapher's supplies you instead gain proficiency with another type of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[b]Artificial Mind[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 3rd level, you learn to awaken Artificial Minds within objects. At the end of a long rest, you can touch a Tiny, non-magical object, and use your calligrapher's supplies to awaken an Artificial Mind within it. While the Artificial Mind is awakened within an object, it is considered a magic item that requires attunement, and it can be used as a spellcasting focus for your artificer spells. If you attempt to rouse a second Artificial Mind while you already have one from this feature, the first Artificial Mind ceases to exist. While attuned to your Artificial Mind, you gain the following abilities:\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Information Overload. You can cause your Artificial Mind to overload the mind's of your foes by channeling information at them. As an action, you can force a creature that you can see within 30 feet to make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 1d8 psychic damage and disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes before the start of your next turn. The damage of Information Overload increases when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).[\/li]\r\n[li]Magical Telephony. You can communicate telepathically with any creature carrying one of your infused items within a 1-mile radius. The creature can respond telepathically.[\/li]\r\n[li]Skill Proficiencies. You gain proficiency in two skills of your choice from the column on the Artificial Mind table. The material of the object determines the skills you choose from, as the object's nature affects the mind's knowledge.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[center][i]Material Examples Skill Proficiencies[\/i][\/center][center][i]Animal parchment,[\/i][\/center][center][i]leather, bone Animal Handling, Insight[\/i][\/center][center][i]Perception, Survival[\/i][\/center][center][i]Mineral gems, glass,[\/i][\/center][center][i]metal, stone Deception, Intimidation[\/i][\/center][center][i]Performance, Persuasion[\/i][\/center][center][i]Plant paper, wood,[\/i][\/center][center][i]vegetable Arcana, History[\/i][\/center][center][i]Nature, Religion[\/i][\/center]\r\n[center]Archivist Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd comprehend languages, dissonant whispers[\/center][center]5th detect thoughts, mind spike XGtE[\/center][center]9th hypnotic pattern, tongues[\/center][center]13th locate creature, phantasmal killer[\/center][center]17th modify memory, synaptic static XGtE[\/center]\r\n[b]Acute Overload[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you can expend a spell slot to increase the psychic damage of Information Overload. The damage increases by 2d8 for a 1st-level spell slot, and an additional 1d8 for each spell level higher than 1st-level.\r\n\r\nAlso, when you deal psychic damage using your Artificial Mind as a spellcasting focus, you gain a bonus to the damage roll equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).\r\n\r\n[b]Improved Consciousness[\/b]\r\n\r\nThe cognitive abilities of your Artificial Mind are powerful enough to aid your spellcasting. Starting at 9th level, when you are forced to make a Constitution saving throw to maintain concentration on a spell, you gain a bonus to your roll equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).\r\n\r\n[b]Master Archivist[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou are a master of Archivist artifice. Starting at 15th level, you can an action on your to transform into pure information and teleport to an unoccupied space that you can see within 60 feet, or an unoccupied space within 5 feet of a creature or object bearing one of your artificer Infusions.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Biomancer[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nWhile most artificers are content with mechanical innovation, some see biology, the science of living things, as an area rife with potential. Biomancers are those who use their talents to supplement their own anatomy and create life. Combining necromancy and transmutation magic, Biomancers see all living things as prototypes that can be magically evolved.\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you gain proficiency with leatherworker's tools. If you are already proficient with leatherworker's tools, you gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[center]Biomancer Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd false life, find familiar[\/center][center]5th alter self, spider climb[\/center][center]9th haste, life transference[\/center][center]13th blight, polymorph[\/center][center]17th reincarnate, skill empowerment[\/center]\r\n[b]Aberrant Chimera[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou can use your understanding of Biomancy magic to create an aberrant life form. Starting at 3rd level, whenever you cast find familiar, you instead create a Chimera, which functions as a normal familiar, but has the following changes:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The material component is 1 pound of organic matter.[\/li]\r\n[li]It is a monstrosity (instead of a celestial, fey, or fiend).[\/li]\r\n[li]It has additional hit points equal to your artificer level.[\/li]\r\n[li]As an action, the Chimera can touch a creature and sacrifice any amount of its hit points, healing the target for the same amount by grafting its flesh to theirs.[\/li]\r\n[li]As an action, the Chimera can merge with a creature it can touch, granting it temporary hit points equal to the Chimera's remaining hit points. While merged, the target gains one of the Chimeric Traits below. The creatures remain merged until you create another Chimera, or the temporary hit points are depleted, at which point the Chimera is destroyed.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[ol]\r\n[li]Amphibious Physiology. While merged, the creature can breathe both air and water, and gains a 30 foot swim speed.[\/li]\r\n[li]Resilient Hide. While merged and not wearing any armor or using a shield, the creature's Armor Class is equal to 10 + your Intelligence modifier + their Constitution modifier.[\/li]\r\n[li]Vestigial Limb. While merged, the creature grows an additional limb which resembles their own limbs. It has a reach of 5 feet, and can lift a number of pounds equal to your Intelligence score. The limb can't use weapons or shields nor can it do anything that requires manual precision.[\/li]\r\n[\/ol]\r\n\r\n[b]Augmented Flesh[\/b]\r\n\r\nThe power your Chimera works best when merged with its master. Starting at 5th level, you gain the following benefits while you are merged with your Aberrant Chimera:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Whenever you make an attack or damage roll, ability check, or saving throw that would normally use your Strength, you can use your Intelligence score instead.[\/li]\r\n[li]You gain a climbing speed equal to your movement speed, and you can climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings, without making an ability check.[\/li]\r\n[li]As a bonus action, you can expend a spell slot to grant yourself temporary hit points equal to five times the level of the spell slot + your Intelligence modifier.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nAlso starting at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Strange Evolution[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have enhanced your own physiology with strange magic.\r\nAt 9th level, your movement speed increases by 10 feet, and you permanently gain one Chimeric Trait of your choice.\r\n\r\nWhen you reach 15th level in this class, you gain a second permanent Chimeric Trait of your choice (for a total of two).\r\n\r\n[b]Master Biomancer[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have become a master amongst Biomancer artificers. Beginning at 15th level, when you target a creature with a Biomancer Spell, you can grant a single target (additional) temporary hit points equal to your artificer level.\r\n\r\nIn addition, when merged with your Chimera, you are resistant to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Chronothief[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nFor those that pursue the magic of artifice, no area of study is too dangerous. Perhaps against their better judgment, some artificers choose to experiment with Chronomancy, the magic of time. Known as Chronothieves, these bold artificers are marked by their signature Chronometers, a wondrous object which they use to steal moments and adjust the flow of time.\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you gain proficiency with jeweler's tools. If you are already proficient with jeweler's tools, you instead gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[center]Chronothief Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd expeditious retreat, featherfall[\/center][center]5th hold person, misty step[\/center][center]9th haste, slow[\/center][center]13th banishment, dimension door[\/center][center]17th hold monster, modify memory[\/center][b]Chronometer[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you can create a Chronometer, marking you as a true Chronothief. At the end of a long rest, you can use your jeweler's tools to construct a Tiny timekeeping device, like a watch, hourglass, or small sun dial, which can be used as a spellcasting focus by you for your artificer spells.\r\n\r\nYou can only have one Chronometer at a time, and creating another causes the magic within the first to dissipate.\r\n\r\nYour Chronometer has a number of charges equal to twice your Intelligence modifier. It regains all expended charges when you finish a long rest. While your Chronometer is in hand, you can expend a charge to use the following abilities:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Accelerate. As an action, you increase the speed of a creature within 60 feet by a number feet equal to 5 times your Intelligence modifier until the end of their next turn.[\/li]\r\n[li]Decelerate. As an action, you force a creature that within 60 feet to make a Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, its movement speed is reduced by a number feet equal to 5 times your Intelligence modifier until the end of its next turn.[\/li]\r\n[li]Slip. As a reaction when a creature within 60 feet makes an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, you can force them to re-roll. You must use this reaction before you know if the triggering attack, check, or saving throw succeed.[\/li]\r\n[li]Warp. As an action, you can switch places with a creature within 60 feet, each instantly teleporting to the other's space. An unwilling creature must succeed on a Charisma saving throw or be forced to switch places with you.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Stolen Moments[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have improved your Chronometer so that you can literally save moments in time for later. Beginning at 5th level, when you successfully paralyze, stun, or reduce a creature's movement speed to 0 with a spell or Chronotheif ability, your Chronometer regains one of its expended charges.\r\n\r\nAlso, any of your Chronometer abilities that require an action to use can also be used as a bonus action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Empowered Chronomancy[\/b]\r\n\r\nYour understanding and control over the magic of time has greatly increased. Upon reaching 9th level in this class, the magic of your Chronometer improves in the following ways:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Accelerate. Opportunity attacks against the target creature have disadvantage until the end of their next turn.[\/li]\r\n[li]Decelerate. You can spend an additional charge to double the movement speed reduction. If this feature reduces a target's speed to 0, it must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or be stunned until the end of its next turn.[\/li]\r\n[li]Slip. You can spend two charges to use this reaction after you know if the triggering attack roll, ability check, or saving throw succeeded or failed.[\/li]\r\n[li]Warp. You can spend additional charges to increase the range by an additional 30 feet for each charge you expend.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Master Chronothief[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou are considered a master in the field of Chronomancy. Starting at 15th level, you can overload your Chronometer, expending any remaining charges, to cast time stop.\r\n\r\nOnce you cast time stop in this way, you must finish a long rest before you can do so again.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Composer[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nBehind every great musician, every standing ovation, every sold out concert, there is most often Composer who put quill to parchment and penned the notes. These great minds are unlike other bards and entertainers, Composers take a more cerebral approach to music. They are masters of patterns and repetition, and when they apply their analytical minds to a problem it is only a matter of time before they find a solution.\r\n\r\nThe signature invention of every Composer is their Musical Apparatus, a totally unique invention of their own design that allows them to produce wondrous musical effects.\r\n\r\n[b]Musical Apparatus[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you create a signature musical instrument. At the end of a long rest, you can use your smith's tools to create a Musical Apparatus. You are proficient with this Apparatus and it can be used as a spellcasting focus by you. When you make an ability check with your Musical Apparatus, you can add double your proficiency bonus to the result of your roll.\r\n\r\nYou can only maintain one Apparatus at a time. If you create a second, the previous Apparatus becomes unusable.\r\n\r\nUpon creating your Musical Apparatus, you can weaponize it, choosing one of the following options below:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Raucous Blast. Your Apparatus can assault creatures with a blast of sound. As an action, make a spell attack against a creature within 60 feet that can hear you. On hit, the creature takes 1d8 thunder damage and is deafened until the start of your next turn. The damage increases by 1d8 at 5th level (2d8), and again at 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).[\/li]\r\n[li]Ringing Strike. Your Apparatus is a simple weapon with the versatile property, and it deals 1d8 (1d10) bludgeoning damage on hit. You are considered proficient with it, and you can use your Intelligence, in place of Strength, for attack and damage rolls. In addition, you can cast the booming blade* cantrip as long as your Apparatus is the material component.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you become a Composer Specialist at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with smith's tools and one instrument of your choice. If you already proficient with smith's tools, you gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[center]Composer Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd charm person, thunderwave[\/center][center]5th shatter, silence[\/center][center]9th beacon of hope, fear[\/center][center]13th charm monster XGtE, dominate beast[\/center][center]17th destructive wave, dominate person[\/center]\r\n[b]Thunderous Note[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 5th level, when you hit a creature with a Musical Apparatus attack, you can expend a spell slot to knock Large or smaller targets back with a thunderous burst of sound. The creature is knocked back 10 feet for a 1st-level spell slot, and an additional 10 feet for each spell level higher than 1st-level.\r\n\r\nAlso, whenever you deal thunder damage, you add your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1) to your damage roll.\r\n\r\n[b]Resonant Frequency[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 9th level, you can use an action to play a note that causes a target within 10 feet to resonate with undetectable music for 1 hour. The next time that creature is hit by a melee attack, the attacker must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or take 2d8 thunder damage and not be able take reactions until the start of their next turn.\r\n\r\nYou may use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Master Composer[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have mastered the theory and applications of musical. Beginning at 15th level, you gain the following benefits:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]You are immune to thunder damage and being deafened.[\/li]\r\n[li]Your Musical Apparatus gains both Weaponized effects.[\/li]\r\n[li]Your Thunderous Note feature effects Huge or smaller creatures. Large or smaller creatures that fail the saving throw fall prone at the end of their forced movement.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Dungeoneer[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nWhile most artificers iterate on one invention, Dungeoneers use their know-how to weaponize mundane objects. Trusted to safeguard untold riches and powerful artifacts, these slick inventors use basic adventuring gear to construct defensive traps, puzzles, and structures that can repel all but the most hardy and determined adventurers and marauders.\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you become a Dungeoneer Specialist at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with carpenters and smith's tools. If you already proficient in carpenter's or smith's tools, you gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\nIn addition, you gain proficiency with improvised weapons. Whenever you make an attack with an improvised weapon, you can use your Intelligence modifier, in place of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack and damage rolls.\r\n\r\n[center]Dungeoneer Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]2nd alarm, unseen servant[\/center][center]5th arcane lock, knock[\/center][center]9th glyph of warding, tiny hut[\/center][center]13th guardian of faith, resilient sphere[\/center][center]17th passwall, wall of stone[\/center][b]Dungeoncraft[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 3rd level, whenever you finish a long rest, you craft a number of objects of your choice from the table below equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 object). They appear as mundane versions of those objects, but turn to ash the following dawn after they are created. You can craft normal versions of these objects in one quarter of the time.\r\n\r\nIf an object you craft with this feature forces a creature to make a saving throw, they use your artificer Spell Save DC.\r\n\r\n[center]Dungeoncraft Objects[\/center][center]acid (1 vial)[\/center][center]alchemist's fire (1 vial)[\/center][center]ball bearings (1,000)[\/center][center]caltrops (200)[\/center][center]chain (25 feet)[\/center][center]crowbar[\/center][center]grappling hook[\/center][center]hunting trap[\/center][center]lock\/manacles and key[\/center][center]oil (1 vial)[\/center][center]portable ram[\/center][center]rope (50 feet)[\/center][center]sledge hammer[\/center][center]torches (5)[\/center]\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Arcane Improvisation[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 9th level, your improvised weapon attacks and Dungeoncraft Objects are considered magical for the sake of overcoming resistance and immunity to non-magical attacks.\r\n\r\nAlso, you can cast one of your Dungeoneer Spells without providing the material component once per long rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Master Dungeoneer[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have become a master of Dungeoneering. Beginning at 15th level, creatures have disadvantage on saving throws for your Dungeoncraft Objects and Dunegoneer spells.\r\n\r\nIn addition, you learn to cast a ritual version of both the passwall and wall of stone spells. Casting them in this way takes 1 hour, doesn't consume a spell slot, and the structure created becomes permanent at the end of the ritual casting.\r\n\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Forgewright[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nWhile most artificers are primarily inventors that take up a life of adventure to test experiments in the field, those known as Forgewrights seek out battle for its own sake. Reveling in the thrill of combat, they combine their innovation with their skill as warriors to forge their signature Arcane Armament.\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you become a Forgewright Specialist at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with smith's tools and all martial weapons.\r\nIf you already proficient in smith's tools, you gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[b]Arcane Armament[\/b]\r\n\r\nYour intimate knowledge of warfare and arcane magic allows you to combine both with ease. Starting at 3rd level, you learn to forge an arcane armament. At the end of each long rest, you touch one melee weapon and turn it into your arcane armament, granting it the following properties:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The weapon you is considered magic if it was not already.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can use your Intelligence modifier, in place of Strength or Dexterity, for the attack and damage rolls.[\/li]\r\n[li]You gain a +1 bonus to your attack and damage rolls with it, unless the base weapon granted a higher bonus. This bonus increases at 9th level (+2) and at 15th level (+3).[\/li]\r\n[li]It can bear one of your Infusions, even if it was already a magic item before becoming your Arcane Armament.[\/li]\r\n[li]It gains the thrown property (range 20\/60) and the returning property, and the weapon returns to your hand immediately after every ranged attack you make.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\nYour Arcane Armament is usable only by you. Enchanting a second weapon causes the magic imbued the first to dispel.\r\n\r\n[center]Forgewright Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd compelled duel, zephyr strike XGtE[\/center][center]5th cloud of daggers, misty step[\/center][center]9th blinding smite, conjure barrage[\/center][center]13th fire shield, staggering smite[\/center][center]17th conjure volley, steel wind strike XGtE[\/center]\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. Also, you can cast one of your cantrips in place of one of those attacks.\r\n\r\n[b]Arcane Smite[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou can channel raw arcane power through your Armament. Beginning at 9th level, when you hit a target with your Arcane Armament you can channel arcane energy through it to create one of the following effects of your choice:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The target takes an extra 2d6 force damage. You can expend a spell slot to increase this damage. The damage increases by 1d6 per level of the spell slot you expend.[\/li]\r\n[li]You gain temporary hit points equal to your artificer level.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can force the target to make a Strength saving throw. On a failed save they are knocked prone.[\/li]\r\n[li]You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Master Forgewright[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have become a master among Forgewright artificers. Starting at 15th level, you can extend the power within your Arcane Armament to your allies. As an action, choose a number of weapons equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1) within 30 feet. For the next minute these weapons deal an additional 1d6 force damage on hit.\r\n\r\nYou can use this feature once per long rest, unless you spend a spell slot of 3rd level or higher to use it again.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Machinist[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nWhile some artificers spend their lives perfection one solitary creation, Machinist artificer value quantity over quality. They are known for creating their signature Automatons, small clockwork men that are created for a single, but temporary purpose. Armed with their tools, and an army of strange and wondrous servants, Machinists are ready for any challenge.\r\n\r\n[b]Automatons[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you learn to craft Automatons. At the end of each long rest, you use your smith's tools to magically create a Small Automaton in an unoccupied space within 5 fee. Once you create an Automaton, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest or until you expend a spell slot of 1st-level or higher to create another one. You can have one Automaton at a time, creating a second causes the first to fall apart.\r\n\r\nAutomatons are magical constructs with an Armor Class of 18 and hit points equal to five times your artificer level. They are immune to poison and psychic damage, and when they make an ability check or a saving throw, its ability scores are 10 (+0). If mending is cast on it, it regains 2d6 hit points. It disappears if it is reduced to 0 hit points or after 1 hour.\r\n\r\nWhen you create you Automaton, you decide which type it is, choosing from the options on the Automaton Model table. On each of your turns, you can take a bonus action to activate the Automaton if you are within 60 feet. As part of the same bonus action, you can direct the Automaton to walk up to 25 feet to an unoccupied space.\r\n\r\n[center]Automaton Model[\/center][center]Model Activation[\/center][ul]\r\n[li]Agent. You can see and hear through the senses of your Automaton, so long as you are within 100 feet. You are deaf and blind to your senses until you end this link as a bonus action.[\/li]\r\n[li]Anchor. The Automaton latches onto a creature within 5 feet, reducing the target's movement speed by a number of feet equal to 5 times your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 5 feet).[\/li]\r\n[li]Armor. The Automaton attaches itself to a willing creature within 5 feet. While attached, the creature's Armor Class cannot be less than 13 + your Intelligence modifier[\/li]\r\n[li]Artisan. The Automaton gains proficiency in one set of tools, and adds your Intelligence modifier to any check it makes using that set of tools.[\/li]\r\n[li]Assault The Automaton makes a melee spell attack against a creature within 5 feet. On hit, it deals bludgeoning damage equal to 1d6 + your Intelligence modifier[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you gain proficiency with smith's tools. If you already proficient in smith's tools, you gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[center]Machinist Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd color spray, unseen servant[\/center][center]5th cloud of daggers, cordon of arrows[\/center][center]9th spirit guardians, tiny servant XGtE[\/center][center]13th faithful hound, summon construct TCoE[\/center][center]17th animate objects, awaken[\/center][b]Arcane Conduit[\/b]\r\n\r\nBeginning at 5th level, you learn to channel magic through your Automatons. When you cast an artificer spell, you can choose for the spell to originate from an Automaton, instead of yourself so long as you are within 60 feet of it.\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell in this way, you roll a d8, and add the number rolled to one damage, or healing, roll of the spell.\r\n\r\n[b]Automated Army[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou can create and control Automatons even more efficiently. Starting at 5th level, you can control up to two Automatons at one time, and at the end of each long rest you can create two Automatons of your choice, without expending a spell slot. You can activate all Automatons as one bonus action.\r\n\r\n[b]Efficient Production[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 9th level, when you expend an artificer spell slot to create an Automaton, you create a number of Automatons equal to the level of the spell slot expended. You cannot use this feature to exceed your maximum number of Automatons.\r\n\r\nMaster Machinist\r\n\r\nYou have become a master amongst Machinist artificers. Starting at 15th level, you can control up to three Automatons at one time, and at the end of a long rest you create three Automatons of your choice, without expending a spell slot.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Puppeteer[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nThough all artificers have their quirks, Puppeteers tend to be the strangest subset of arcane inventors. They dedicate their research and intellect towards mastery of manipulation and control of other creatures through the use of their Marionette Strings. Often found literally pulling the strings from behind the scenes, these strange artificers prefer to empower their allies rather than risk their own lives on the front lines.\r\n\r\n[b]Tools of the Trade[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you gain proficiency with weaver's tools. If you are already proficient with weaver's tools, you instead gain proficiency with another set of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n[center]Puppeteer Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Spell[\/center][center]3rd ensnaring strike, entangle[\/center][center]5th crown of madness, hold person[\/center][center]9th hypnotic pattern, slow[\/center][center]13th dominate beast, grasping vine[\/center][center]17th dominate person, hold monster[\/center][b]Marionette Strings[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, you learn to fashion the strange Strings that mark you as a Puppeteer. When you finish a long rest, you can use your weaver's tools to construct a set of Marionette Strings, usable only by you. As an action, you can cause your Strings to fly out and magically attach to a willing creature within 30 feet. You must have a free hand to use your Strings.\r\n\r\nWhile a creature is attached to your Strings, you gain the features listed below. Your Marionette Strings detach after 1 minute, if you use a bonus action to detach them, or if you and the creature are ever more than 30 feet apart.\r\n\r\nYou can attach your Marionette Strings a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Corrected Strike. When the attached creature makes a melee attack, you can use your reaction to have them re-roll their attack roll, and they must use the new roll. You must use this reaction before you know if the attack hits or misses.[\/li]\r\n[li]Channel Spell. As an action on your turn, you can cast an artificer spell as if it originated from the attached creature. If the spell requires concentration, you concentrate on it.[\/li]\r\n[li]Puppeteer's Guidance. When the attached creature makes an ability check that uses a skill with which you are proficient , you can grant them a bonus to their roll equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of +1).[\/li]\r\n[li]Strange Movement. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the attached creature a number of feet equal to 5 times your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 5 feet). This movement does not provoke opportunity attacks.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n\r\n[b]Strange Strikes[\/b]\r\n\r\nThe degree of control you exert through your Strings grows. Starting at 5th level, when the creature attached to your Marionette Strings makes an attack, you can use your reaction to cause them to make one additional attack.\r\n\r\nIn addition, when a creature attached to your Strings hits a creature with a melee attack, you can expend a spell slot to empower their strike. Their strike deals an additional 2d6 force damage for a 1st-level spell slot, and an additional 1d6 force damage for each spell slot level above 1st.\r\n\r\n[b]Nimble Fingers[\/b]\r\n\r\nYour ability to control and amplify the abilities of others has increased. Starting at 9th level, you can have two creatures attached to separate Marionette Strings at one time. You must have a free hand to control each of these creatures. The two creatures can be any distance apart, so long as they each individually remain within the range of your Strings.\r\n\r\nIn addition, the length of your Marionette Strings, and the range of your Puppeteer abilities, becomes 60 feet.\r\n\r\n[b]Master Puppeteer[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou have become a master amongst Puppeteer artificers. Starting at 15th level, you can use an action on your turn to cast the Irresistible Dance spell, without expending a spell slot, or requiring your concentration. You can only have once instance of this spell active at a time. When a creature makes a saving throw to resist the spell, you can expend a use of your Marionette Strings to impose disadvantage.\r\n\r\nOnce you cast Irresistible Dance in this way, you must finish a long rest before you can do so again, or expend a use of your Marionette Strings ability to use this ability again.\r\n\r\n[center][b][u]Dwarven Warsmith[\/u][\/b][\/center]\r\nWhere other artificers may seek to innovate magical technology like nobody has ever seen, you instead look to far more ancient sources. For thousands of years, dwarven warsmiths have forged magic weapons and armor unlike anything other mortals could hope to create, infusing powerful elemental magic directly into the metal with jealously guarded techniques, passed down from master to apprentice. A warsmith is unique in mastering not only the forge, but also the wielding of its products, training in time-tested martial techniques in order to gain an unmatched understanding of their craft.\r\n\r\n[b]Tool Proficiency[\/b]\r\n\r\nWhen you adopt this specialization at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with smith's tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan's tools of your choice.\r\n\r\n[b]Ancestral Forge[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 3rd level, your body has become accustomed to the heat of the strongest forges. You gain resistance to fire damage.\r\n\r\nYou have been taught the secrets of dwarven craftsmanship. Add the following items to the table for the Replicate Magic Item infusion at the listed levels of availability: belt of dwarvenkind (6th level), dwarven plate (10th level), and dwarven thrower (14th level).\r\n\r\nThe way of the dwarven warsmith is typically restricted to dwarves, but exceptions have occasionally been made for outsiders of great skill and dedication. If you are not a dwarf, you are able to attune to any item that requires attunement by a dwarf.\r\n\r\n[b]Dwarven Warsmith Spells[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 3rd level, you always have certain spells prepared after you reach particular levels in this class, as shown in the Dwarven Warsmith Spells table. These spells count as artificer spells for you, but they don\u2019t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.\r\n\r\n[center]Dwarven Warsmith Spells[\/center][center]Artificer Level Dwarven Warsmith Spells[\/center][center]3rd searing smite, thunderwave[\/center][center]5th earthbind, locate object[\/center][center]9th lightning bolt, erupting earth[\/center][center]13th stoneskin, storm sphere[\/center][center]17th wall of stone, conjure elemental[\/center][b]Martial Heritage[\/b]\r\n\r\nYou are trained in the ancient martial techniques of the dwarves. At 3rd level, you gain proficiency with martial weapons and heavy armor.\r\n\r\nYou also gain access to one of the following fighting styles from the Fighter class. You can't take a Fighting Style option more than once, even if you later get to choose again.\r\n\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]Defense. While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.[\/li]\r\n[li]Dueling. When you are wielding a melee weapon in one hand and no other weapons, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls with that weapon.[\/li]\r\n[li]Great Weapon Fighting. When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding with two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit.[\/li]\r\n[li]Protection. When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll. You must be wielding a shield.[\/li]\r\n[li]Thrown Weapon Fighting. You can draw a weapon that has the thrown property as part of the attack you make with the weapon. In addition, when you hit with a ranged attack using a thrown weapon, you gain a +2 bonus to the damage roll.[\/li]\r\n[li]Two-Weapon Fighting. When you engage in two-weapon fighting, you can add your ability modifier to the damage of the second attack.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n[b]Extra Attack[\/b]\r\n\r\nStarting at 5th level, you can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.\r\n\r\n[b]Dwarven Warmaster[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 9th level, you become become a master of dwarven arms and armor. You gain three additional infusions known, which can only be used for belt of dwarvenkind, dwarven plate and dwarven thrower.\r\n\r\n[b]Deep Magic[\/b]\r\n\r\nAt 15th level, you gain access to ancient secrets of dwarven elemental magic, which you are able to work into your creations. You can cast move earth and one of your choice of flesh to stone, chain lightning, investitute of flame or investiture of stone (chosen when you prepare your spells each day) as 6th-level artificer spells, without expending a spell slot. Once you cast either spell with this feature, you can't cast that spell with it again until you finish a long rest.","tabledata":"Level | Proficiency Bonus | Features | Infusions Known | Infused Items | Cantrips Known | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th\r\n1st | +2 | Magical Tinkering, Spellcasting | - | - | 2 | 2 | - | - | - | -\r\n2nd | +2\t | Infuse Item | 4 | 2 | 2 | 2 | - | - | - | -\r\n3rd | +2 | Artificer Specialist, The Right Tool for the Job | 4 | 2 | 2 | 3 | - | - | - | -\r\n4th | +2 | Ability Score Improvement | 4 | 2 | 2 | 3 | - | - | - | -\r\n5th | +3 | Artificer Specialist feature | 4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 2 | - | - | -\r\n6th | +3 | Tool Expertise | 6 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 2 | - | - | -\r\n7th | +3 | Flash of Genius | 6 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 3 | - | - | -\r\n8th | +3 | Ability Score Improvement | 6 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 3 | - | - | -\r\n9th | +4 | Artificer Specialist feature | 6 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 3 | 2 | - | -\r\n10th | +4 | Magic Item Adept | 8 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 2 | - | -\r\n11th | +4 | Spell-Storing Item | 8 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 3 | - | -\r\n12th | +4 | Ability Score Improvement | 8 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 3 | - | -\r\n13th | +5 | - | 8 | 4 | 3 | 4\t | 3 | 3 | 1 | -\r\n14th | +5 | Magic Item Savant | 10 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 1 | -\r\n15th | +5 | Artificer Specialist feature | 10 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 2 | -\r\n16th | +5 | Ability Score Improvement | 10 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 2 | -\r\n17th | +6 | - |10 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 1\r\n18th | +6 | Magic Item Master | 12 | 6 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 1\r\n19th | +6 | Ability Score Improvement | 12 | 6 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 2\r\n20th | +6 | Soul of Artifice | 12 | 6 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 2","tags":"Class, Homebrew, Artificer","isShared":"on","templateId":"25","blockId":"759823","world":"cad8ba06-aedc-4b69-a58e-bc3449077b79","folder":""}
