			== Editor's Notes ==
			Artificer, so hard to get right.
			Not only is this a generalist class, which are in itself hard, it is also a support class and a half-spellcaster, all tricky prospects.
			My premise for these changes is that the artificer is weak and that the way to rectify that is to make them more artificer-like.
			* I removed Infusions Known as a concept, and increased the number of infusions by half.
			* Infusions scale more over levels, around a 50% increase.
			* Overnight Crafting lets them do a bit of crafting on adventures as long as a long rest is involved.
			* Magical tinkering got more options, mostly for fun but with some utility.
			* Artificers now get Mending as an additional cantrip, and can spend spell slots when casting Mending to quickly heal their own constructs.
			* Right Tool for the Job now gives semi-proficiency.
			* At level 3 you learn to infuse magical items. This can be a worrying complexity to new players, so a better wording would be nice.
			* Magic item adept's ability to craft faster and more cheaply removed. In a game that actually allows and gives time for crafting the reduced cost can very quickly unbalance things.
			* At level 13 and 17 your ability to concentrate improves. With the weak spells the artificer has compared to full casters, this is good but not outrageously so.
			* Magic Item Adept at lvl 10 allows the artificer to use all scrolls and ignore spells required for crafting.
			* Soul of Artifice no longer takes a reaction. You are very likely to be out of reactions when you use this.

			== Subclass Ideas ==
			* Mirrors - redirects spells and effect by using a series of mirrors.
			* Prosthetics
			* Necromancer

			* Scarabs - Swarms & insects
			* Runes - Quick infusions?
			* Plagiarist
			* Totems
			* Enchanter - Makes, identifies, and uses any type of magic item
			* Shadow - Molds shadowstuff
			* Card Shark - Infusions and effect from a deck of cards
			* Reforger - Turn one magic item into another

Homunculus Servant

New page

== Infusions ==
New or altered infusions are listed here.

=== Homunculus Servant ===
A Homunculus Servant has a number of d4 Hit Dice equal to your level and gains a one-time bonus to its Hit Points equal to your Intelligence modifier. Due to its 12 Constitution this results in Hit Points equal to (3.5) times your level + your Intelligence modifier (rounded down, minimum 10 Hit Points).
