I have very limited experience with pathfinder, which is why I'm asking.

So far, the party has:

Barbarian
Alchemist
Oracle
Rogue

Please let me know some classes that would compliment this party. TIA.
Dwarf FTW.

I'm leaning towards a gunslinger, monk, paladin, cleric, bard, or wizard.

My real D&D experience is in 2e or 5e, and I have very limited pathfinder experience.

Thanks!

The party has no real arcane input, so I'd suggest the Arcanist, Sorcerer, Witch, or Wizard. Maybe there are more classes to fit the bill, I haven't been keeping up with the latest books...

that party isnt the most optimized group
playing a buffing/debuffing heal-bot is soooo very boring - but your party probably gonna need one, less the Oracle is?
also need arcanist wizard or Sorcerer,
oh and a archer there isn't one here
that being said you only have 1 front liner, the Barbarian, probably could use 2 of these or 1 support (like an archer)
the rogue is the skill monkey but not so great at outdoors so you probably need somebody with good outdoors skills like a ranger

ok so a ranger archer could fill in nicely
a paladin archer same, no skills but healing and combat and a archer pali is really kinda slick
Druid combat support, outdoors, spells versatility probably a good solid choice
