Much smaller audience here, so I can ask question and not feel like an idiot
What is kenetisist and why are people hyped about it?
The new class, it's about using one or multiple elements. It's not a spellcaster with spellslots though, think of it more in line with an Avatar character.
Multiple reasons to be hyped, some folks liked the kineticist from 1e, others want a "spellcaster" that's not a vancian caster. I just really like the theme of controlling the elements.
It's also, a pretty cool take on the "Elementalist" concept. By not making it a new full caster class and just adding a bunch of new elemental themed spells they can diferente the class from wizard or druid and let it shine on its own. While also opening up a new play style, the elemental blaster concept is not currently well represented and the Kineticist should theoretically fill that niche.
