The Savant: Basic Class Information

A brand new 5E class! Savants are first and foremost experts, unique even when compared to arcane or divine sages. Brilliant detectives, iconic martial artists, and adventurous physicians are counted among their number, each utilizing brilliance where others rely on magic or brute power. For a savant, saving the day means turning leverage and knowledge into weaponry. By Jeremiah McCoy; illustrated by Alba Palacio.

Looks good! Just to be clear, the "one hand free" for light armor is when you're using one weapon and no shield, correct?

Matthew Gesus

Smart Defense has been tweaked! It should read as follows: Smart Defense. While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC. In addition, while wearing light armor if you have one hand free, you gain a bonus to AC equal to your Intelligence modifier (up to a maximum no higher than your proficiency bonus). Alternatively, while wearing medium armor, you may use Intelligence instead of Dexterity when calculating AC.

Thanks! I am glad to hear people like it.

I'm generally not one to look for additional classes, but this is the first class that I feel compelled to use in my campaign. I love the flavor and how it works mechanically. Wonderfully designed.
