Classes→ Opportunist→ Garo

source

Garo is one of several possible subclasses you can undertake as an opportunist.

Your subclass enacts features at 3rd level and every three levels thereafter: 6th, 9th, 12th, 15th, and 18th. See Opportunist#Garo for an integrated list that combines garo features with those of the base opportunist class.

Bomb Proficiency

At 3rd level, you gain proficiency with bombs, an ancient weapon favored by garo of ages past.

Studied Strike

From 3rd level onward, you can add your Intelligence modifier to the damage of your Sneakstrike.

Garo Magic

Garo wield a blend of fantastical techniques and tricky spells. At 3rd level, you learn one martial technique which requires an action to use, and any one spell 3-points or fewer from the garo spell list. Intelligence is your casting ability for this spell, since you learn spells through study and memorization.

You only have one chance to use a technique or cast a spell with this feature. Using a technique or spell in this way does not consume any stamina or magic points. Once you do so, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use any of them again. Starting from 12th level you can use two between rests, and from 18th level you can use three between rests. You cannot use these techniques or spells with stamina points, nor magic points if you have them.

Further Learning

At 6th level, you can learn one more martial technique which requires an action to use, and one garo spell of 4-points or fewer. You can still only use any of these only once, and regain the ability to use them when you finish a short or long rest.

You can never maintain knowledge of more than two spells and two techniques through this feature. Such is the way of the secretive arts wielded by Garo.

Overpowering

Starting from 6th level, whenever you use this feature to cast a spell, it is overpowered if possible to be cast as if with 4-points. This increases every three garo levels hereafter: 5-points at 9th level, 6-points at 12th level, 7-points at 15th level, and 8-points at 18th level.

Masterful Magic

At 9th, 12th, 15th, and 18th levels you can replace one spell you've learned with your Garo Magic feature with a new spell. The new spell can be up to 5-points at 9th level, 6-points at 12th level, 7-points at 15th level, and 8-points at 18th level.

Masterful Techniques

At 15th level, you can replace one martial technique you learned through garo magic with a heroic technique that requires an action to use. At 18th level, you can replace the other technique in the same manner.
