With the luminary playtest coming to an end, has there been any word on any other playtest classes to accompany it? im still relatively new to SF2e/PF2e but has paizo ever released a class solo? just based off of previous books they seem to come in pairs.

With Nanocyte reduced to an archetype, I'd be interested in seeing an updated Biohacker; SF2e is really lacking a proper Scientist/medic class that isn't just a reflavored mystic/envoy. Making serums, pathogens, boosting allies capabilities and making the most of injection weapons all that good stuff.

What are your thoughts? any news or hope for other potential playtest classes? even something new to 2e.

So on the store page for Secrets of the Swarm, there is a list of ancestries being added

namely the

Atraxid

Binnaquid

Hardor

Mecenaic

Ord

Phasorq

We do get a preview for the Atraxid, and they seem to be spider people, so my question is: are all the ancestries new to Starfinder, or is there any lore/info regarding any of them from previous editions? Since the adventure is swarm themed i'm guessing it might not be unlikely that most are potentially old swarm races?

I'm pretty unfamiliar with the lore though, especially 1e so feel free to mention any info we know about these new ancestries or the Szandite collective.

dont have all the books but didnt find and image in the player core unless i missed it, is there any official art from 1e/2e?

>!So nothing majorly spoilery, but I noticed when reading through the module (at least on Foundry) one of the encounters with drift entities in chapter 4 calls to reward the players with a fixed point solarion crystal for resolving it peacefully. Now, from my research, "fixed point" isn't even a type of solarion crystal available. Or does this just mean the players have been rewarded with a solarion crystal permanently attached to a fixed point in space? Like a random floating crystal in the engine bay!<

>!I'm just curious if they accidentally published an unreleased item or if the wording is poor... or if I'm dumb xD!<

EDIT: thank you everyone for your responses!, yeah hopefully its not an issue going forward with future adventures as we move away from early publishings for 2e

>!So i plan on running Guilt of the Graveworld on Foundry in the near future, and I know that, oftentimes, actors populate with loot sometimes separate from what the module outright rewards, just to make looting a bit easier. My question is: the final boss of the AP Sanimus Slayn has a really cool unholy minigun... that is totally unavailable for grabs, i tried looking but is there any minigun even in the setting? Or would I just have to modify something existing?!<
