#1 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2005 6:02:09	I found this on my computer. I made it awhile ago and I can't remember exactly how I decided on the build. Could some people take a look at it and give some comments? Specifically the monarch's tattoos: are they too powerful? thanks ---------------------- Paladins Good saves: fort, ref Bad save: will BAB: good Hit Dice: d10 Secular Authority: as a templar. Detect Magic: at will as per the spell. Smite: Add Cha mod to attack and class level to damage. Monarch's Blessing: Add Cha mod to all saves Deadly Touch: Deal cha mod x class level in damage each day by touch Damage Reduction: as a barbarian Sneak Attack: as a rogue Monarch's Tattoo I: Gain spell resistance equal to class level + 10 Monarch's Tattoo II: Gain power resistance equal to class level +10 1st: Detect Magic, Secular Authority, smite 1/day 2nd: Monarch's Blessing, Deadly Touch 3rd: Sneak Attack 1d6 4th: Damage reduction 1/- 5th: Smite 2/day 6th: Sneak Attack 2d6 7th: 8th: 9th: Damage reduction 2/-, Sneak Attack 3d6 10th: Smite 3/day 11th: Monarch's Tattoo I 12th: Sneak Attack 4d6 13th: Monarch's Tattoo II 14th: Damage reduction 3/- 15th: Smite 4/day, Sneak Attack 5d6 16th: 17th: 18th: Sneak Attack 6d6 19th: Damage reduction 4/- 20th: Smite 5/day

Skills are missing. 3. The class abilities are WAY too powerful. Good BAB + Paladin abilities, but no spells, mount and cure disease. OK. But you make up for by giving the class -the Templar's secular authority and -the Rogue's sneak attack and -the Barbarian's damage reduction and -spell resistance and -psionic resistance Notice something wrong? I do. The class is seriously overpowered. Munchkin-size overpowered.
#3 zombiegleemax Sep 20, 2005 7:29:40	any suggestions? like i said, i found this on my computer while going through old files and i don't even remember making it, so it's probably at least a year and a half old maybe. i dunno. it's also incomplete, as no skills show. i think all i did really was take a paladin, remove the spells and mount and stuff and try to add in some blackguard, and then lose interest and leave it incomplete in a folder titled "random stuff" . . . which is the place i dump random things i don't feel like dealing with at the moment. i was cleaning out old files and "dealing with" some of them finally, and came across this. so . . . I dunno, maybe I should just dump the idea entirely

#5 xlorepdarkhelm_dup Sep 20, 2005 8:33:45	That reminds me, I have to retrofit my paladin write-up, I've made some changes, fusing in some of the features of the Marshal class from the Miniatures Handbook, while removing some of the redundancy of the Paladin's abilities.
