What class do you miss most from 3.PF?
What class would you like to see in 5e?
Alternatively, what prestige class would you like to see as an archetype in 5e?
Gabriel Allen
King Kaius is just as awesome as King Boranel.

Factotum, even though Bard with Knowledge College sorta-kinda-doesn't-really-but-if-you-cock-your-head-and-squint comes close.
Kayden Ortiz
I miss the Factotum shenanigans. Not the skills, as much as the stealing-features-from-other-classes thing.
The realest jack of all trades.
It wouldn't work the same way it did in 3.5 by making it a subclass though, and it doesn't seem we'll be getting new base classes anytime soon
Evan Diaz
Yeah, the class features thing really was my favorite part, too.

Are you remembering the factotum, or are you remembering the chameleon prestige class people used with it a lot?
What a lot of people miss when trying to make a factotum-like class in 5e is that the factotum had its own features that replicated the functionality of other class features instead of directly ripping them. This kind of approach would avoid all the issues of the homebrew people have been posting in the last week or so that is completely unbalanced because the lazy writers just said to reference the other classes.

Does anyone have any advice for running a war-themed game where the PCs are all soldiers in an army? I figure just throwing them into big battle after big battle would get boring quick, but maybe they could be like medieval special forces instead? Quick, surgical strikes in enemy territory, rescuing or defending hostages, scouting, spying, etc.
Kayden Jackson
I actually preferred mixing factotum with the swordsage, if my DM allowed me using Kung Fu Genius on Swordsage features, instead of monk.
Never really liked the Chameleon
Samuel Mitchell
A factotum chameleon was pretty impressive though. And you touched on another great aspect of the factotum: you could make an int-based weapon user.
