Hey all, after my last public update to the Savant I got some really great feedback so I've made a few changes in order to make the first few levels of Savant feel a little smoother and more impactful in-game. (No changes to the Patron subclasses or to the Savant: Expanded document, just the base class).

Changes in 4.6.0

Perfect Recall - Added back in. It's a nice ribbon that really makes you feel like you are a genius with a photographic memory. One of the main perks over wizard/artificer.

Quick Wit - Merged back in with Adroit Analysis (where it was before)

Potent Observation - Moved up to 2nd level. This is your main "damage steroid" (similar to Divine Smite or Rage, etc), so waiting until 5th level felt bad. However, you can only use it on other creatures' attacks until 5th level.

Expert Student - Moved up to 5th level (had to make room for Potent Observation). You get a TON of skills at low levels (especially once you pick your Academic Discipline), so I think waiting until 5th level is fine for this one. It also scales based on your proficiency bonus so there is a little more of a gradual curve.

Accelerated Reflexes - Removed the Ready action on Initiative (felt kind of awkward in combat). Instead, you now add your INT mod to Initiative rolls.

Expert Educator - Clarified that creatures must be able to hear you (sigh...)

The Savant Class by laserllama

The slender elf cleaned her glasses with the corner of her cloak as the dust settled around her. Her benefactor had paid her a large sum to locate this forgotten place, and after weeks of pouring over ancient maps, she had pieced together the location of the temple.
