I would like to see more Artificers, but I think they're done playtesting subclasses for this October/November book.
It was, yes. The power of creating magical scrolls or novels. It was a fine idea. Wouldn't mind it being both a arti and wiz.
I'm the same way
well i personally see the order of the scribes more as an continuation of the lore wizard thematically than as an continuation of the archivist artificer, so there is defenetly room for both

Well, they did say it was a mix of both, but it seems to be mostly the Archivist. I do want both to exist.

Please check out my homebrew, I would appreciate feedback:
i am going to wager for at least one left-feild subclass that nobody really asked for but whom are welcome additions regardless like the giant sorcerer, wildfire druid, revived rouge or archivist artificer, i will also say at least one artificer.
Also i would hope for some use of superiority dice, at least something
I hope they take just a bit more time and put a lot of thought into the next Psionic UA. I don't really want a "Psionics For Every Class" approach. A handful of subclasses with a pure Psion class, absolutely. I would like that to be in a UA, 3 to 4 subclasses (Fighter, Rogue, Sorcerer, and Monk) with a Psion class to play test together.
When i think back on it, im pretty sure we saw the last UA version of the Artificer last year in August with the book releasing in November. I feel like with the amount of content we have see so far we will get at least 2 more UA for revisions before the book is announced officially
I hope one comes out this next week, but I don't think it will be for Xanathar's 2.0. I think it's revised Psionics.
I will also point out that we are a bit uneven on subclasses now, which makes we think this Xanathar's 2.0 is going to contain a few less subclasses than what XGtE did, and then provide alternative race and class features to adapt your game differently... so still player options but less focused on subclasses. I agree, the Psionics may not find their way into this one at all. As of now the list is...
Artificer: Armorer
Barbarian: Wild Soul and Beast
Bard: Creation (Eloquence is on Mythic Odyssey)
Cleric: Twilight and Unity
Druid: Stars and WIldfire
Fighter: Rune Knight (Psi Knight or Psychic Warrior are still possible, but Psi Knight was not well received)
Monk: Astral Self and Mercy
Paladin: Watcher (Glory is in Mythic Odyssey)
Ranger: Fey Wanderer and Swarmkeeper
Rogue: Phantom (Soul Knife is still in questionable status as well)
Sorcerer: Clockwork (Aberrant Mind or Psionic Soul in question)
Warlock: Genie and Lurker in the Deep
Wizard: Scribes (Psionics apparently scrapped)
As you can see, we are at only 1-2 subclasses per class currently, depending on what they do with psionics you might only see one for half of them, so nowhere as big as XGtE.

Xanathar's was already one of the slimmest books, so I wonder what they will add to make this one larger. I'm hoping for new spells, specifically the "summon x spirit" ones.

A fool pulls the leaves. A brute chops the trunk. A sage digs the roots.
They'll possibly reprint some subclasses from the setting books. I could see the Order Cleric, Spores Druid, Eloquence Bard, Glory Paladin, Artificer subclasses, and some possible Wildemount subclasses in the book.

That would be helpful for people who play AL. From what I heard, it is nearly impossible to get to play those subclasses.

I'm sure they'll reprint the whole Artificer class, not just for AL, but for DMs and players who just want player options without having to buy a setting book.

I doubt it. I get the impression that they actively don’t want Artificers in AL. Call it one of my hunches.

I don't think they make rulings on book content based on AL, but they do have a "rule" that if you want to buy another book for 5e, the only books you have to have in order to make that book's content function in your games is the 3 core rule books.
If they're following this rule, they're not going to force people to buy the Eberron book if they print the Armorer in Xanathar's 2.0, and will likely reprint at least the base class.

I hope they don't put the psionics in Xanathar's 2. They need more revisions, a lot more revisions. I could see us getting a Psion class or multiple subclasses, or both in separate UAs.
It does make sense that Xanathar's 2 would have fewer subclasses (Xanathar's did have a few reprints, so I could see them doing that again), but add in those variant race ASIs that they talked about, maybe a reprint of the Artificer, maybe some spells/magic tattoos.
I say the UA will probably come out next Tuesday.
EDIT: They might also decide to playtest the variant racial ASIs because those really need to be good. For some reason, I just can't see them playtesting them, but I don't know why.
Im really hoping for some more feats and spell. I feel like they have really dropped the ball with spell variety for basically anyone except the wizard

Alrighty, we are getting inexorably closer to the next UA. Any new guesses on what we’re gonna get?

I bet they'll revise a few subclasses to try to get them good enough to publish in November. I could see them doing that next month too.
Hope it comes out next week!
