This is the first class i'm doing for Spirit; a sci-fantasy setting.
>>A slightly outdated, but smartly presented PDF of heroic tier navigator and feats is available Here<<
As this is the first class i've ever made, i'm not too confident about my balancing, and any suggestions for powers would be grately appreciated
I've had a fair bit of feedback on the first 4-5 levels from the WoTC forums, so i'm more eager to get some feedback/critiques on levels 5+ and the paragon paths.

Navigators are often the first clue to a species' impending disvovery of warp travel. And usually the first form of measurable psionic activity to be displayed. As a demographic, they are essential to a species ability to move out into the galaxy of their own accord, individually however they can be a great hinderace to society. On some worlds the appearence of navigators has not been understood, leading to great wars or social upheval that threw their civilisations back to pre-technology eras . Navigators are able to sense the very fabric of space around them, to explore an object or creatures path through time and space. This allows them to plot courses through warp space almost instantly, unlike computers that can take hours or days to plot a safe course. This makes them highly sort after as crew onboard warp vessels. Their powers have another angle however; the same abilities allow them to tap into a vast psychic field, giving them almost omnipotent knowledge. Some master the manipulation of gravity fields and can teleport themselves instantly from one point to another by travelling through the Warp, or even pull antimatter into our universe to cause catastrophic explosions.
Overview and Class Features
NAVIGATOR OVERVIEW
Characteristics: You are a good healer. The majority of your attaks are mid-ranged; allowing you watch the tide of battle very closely. Most of your attacks deal only moderate damage, but many of them give bonuses to your allies or move foes and allies around the battlefield. Religion: Navigators usually follow religions that reflect their connection to the warp and the universe, such as those from the Animism or Universatheism theologies. It is not uncommon to find navigators that worship dragons, as they are creatures of the warp. Navigators very rarely follow religions from the Mechatheism or Monotheism; as their unique view of the galaxy as one great organic entity is at odds with the strict dogma and beliefs of those theologies. Races: Averoux make ideal spatial navigators and are abundant within the Coalition; often trained as military Alphas, they are a major factor in the races past military exploits. Sirians of the Se'blen caste are succesful temporal navigators; often serving the Alliance as spiritual guides and political advisors, the most powerful Sirian navigators become revered Seers. Humans and Ganshini also make good navigators, though they are not as predominant as they are in the Averoux and Sirian races. That being said, all space-fairing races will produce navigators, and the choice of species you make will have little impact on your navigator ability to utilise warp powers.
Creating a Navigator
The navigator has two basic builds to start: the temporal navigator and the spatial navigator. Navigators rely on Wisdom for the majority of their attacks, Charisma for powers that manipulate space and gravity and Constitution for powers that manipulate time.
Temporal Navigator Your leadership takes the form of guidance, prophecy and manipulation of time. Your powers guide your allies to extra and more powerful attacks, as well as controlling the flow time to quicken them while slowing or aging your enemies. You also assist your allies by reversing time to heal wounds and temporarily freezing time to allow escape or avoid area attacks. Your powers derive from your innate sense of how the universe works, and you ability to force your will upon it; make Wisdom your best ability score. Controlling the flows of time puts great strain upon the physical body and may drain your hit points, so make Constitution secondary ability score. Charisma should be your third best so that you can dabble in other navigator powers. You should choose powers that make good use of you high Constitution and hit points. Suggested Feat: Durable (human feat: improved initiative) Suggested Skills: Endurance, Heal, History Suggested At-Will Power: momentary phase, doom prophecy Suggested Encounter Power: slow motion, tip the scales Suggested Daily Power: transitory respite
Spatial Navigator You are an invaluable leader in battle, because the battlefield is one of your choosing; you lead with great charisma and diplomacy. A superior understanding of spatial mechanics and the Warp are your weapons. Your powers confuse or hinder enemies by temporarily changing the terrain or damage and move them by manipulating localised gravity fields. You also aid your comrades by increasing the potency of psionic powers, and teleporting them into strategic positions, while you disseminate important tactical information to them. Your powers derive from your innate sense of how the universe works, and you ability to force your will upon it; make Wisdom your best ability score. Convincing the universe that your idealised perception of space is the correct one takes great force of personality; make Charisma your second highest ability. Constitution should be your tertiary abilty score so that you can use other navigator abilities without fear of loosing conciousness. You should choose powers that make use of your high Charisma. Suggested Feat: Star burst (human feat: action surge) Suggested Skills: Bluff, Diplomacy, Exploration (Dungeoneering) Suggested At-Will Power: Disruption Bolt, pinch Suggested Encounter Power: gravity slip, gravity wave Suggested Daily Power: blue dwarf aspect
Navigator Class Features
Every Navigator shares these class features.
Implement
Navigators make use of psychic amplifiers (psy-amps) or mind crystals to help channel and direct their powers. A navigator wearing a psy-amp or mind crystal can add its enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and damage rolls of navigator powers, as well as navigator paragon path powers, that have the impliment keyword. Without a psy-amp or mind crystal, a navigator can still use these powers, but he or she doesn't gain the bonus provided by the psionic implement.
Matter Recovery
Using the matter recovery power, navigators can grant their comrades addional resilience with a slight rearrangement of matter.
Matter Recovery Power
Matter Recovery Navigator Feature Exerting control over the area of an ally's wounds, you cause them to regenerate by breaking down ambient matter and reshaping it to replace lost tissue.
_______________________ Encounter (Special) ✦ Psionic, Healing Special: You can use this power twice per encounter, but only once per round. At 16th level, you can use this power three times per encounter. Minor Action Close burst 5 Target: You or one ally
_______________________ Effect: The target can spend a healing surge.
When targeting an ally, you can also spend a healing surge and the target regains an additional 1d8+1 Hit Points.
_______________________
Increase the amount of additional hit points regained to 2d8+2 at 6th level, 3d8+3 at 11th level, 4d8+4 at 16th level, 5d8+5 at 21st level, and 6d8+6 at 26th level.
Omniscience
A navigator has the ability to tap into the psychic network that links all living things in the galaxy, this seems to give them almost godlike knowledge on any given subject. At the begining of an encounter the navigator chooses one skill, for the duration of the the encounter the navigator is has a +3 power bonus to knowledge checks with the that skill. To change the chosen skill once an encounter has began, the navigator must use a standard action. This bonus will not apply if the navigator is within a psionic null field.
Star Sense
Probably the key ability of a navigator is their connection to the stars themselves; a navigator in space can 'feel' where they are in relation to warp space, and can quest out with their minds to find a specific star within a number of sectors equal to half their level. The navigator can then plot a warp course to that destination in a matter of seconds; a feat that would take the most sophistocated supercomputers at least 2 hours.
Warp Influence
A navigators sight shows him time and space as ethereal tides and eddies upon the surface of the Warp. As he grows, he learns how to manipulate the very fabric of existence by making a ripple here, or divrting a current there. Navigators usually have a certain knack for influencing time or space in particular. Choose one of the following two benefits. The choice you make also provides bonuses to certain navigator powers. Individual powers detail the effects (if any) you Warp Influence selection has on them.
Temporal Influence When an ally who can see you spends an action point to take an extra action, that ally also regains lost hit points equal to one half your level + your Constitution modifier.
Spatial Influence When an ally who can see you spends an action point to take an extra action, that ally can teleport a number of squares equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum: 1) either before or after that action.
Warp Sight
As navigators spend so much time looking beyond the bounds of the material world; the complexity and brilliance of warp space works a profound change upon their vision. They begin to see the warp all the time; the actions of people around them rear up from the past and spill into millions of possible futures as brilliant ghost forms. A navigator gains a +2 to AC vs. ranged attacks (increase this bonus to +3 at 21st level). A navigators eyes are solid orbs of either purple, green or red; the most powerful and farseeing navigators eyes will pulse with light when they use their abilities.

Eerie Presence Your disconnection from the normal space-time flow gives you a disconcerting aura that distracts people and puts them on edge. Tier: Heroic. Prerequisites: Navigator, Con 15. Benefit: Any foe must pass a saving throw vs. fear to shift through your threatened area. If the saving throw is failed you may make an opportunity attack against it. If the foe has hit you with an attack in the same turn that it shifts, it gains a +5 morale bonus to it's saving throw. Once a creature has passed this save it will ignore your eerie presence for the remainder of the encounter.
ESP You have a sixth sense that detects the presence of life around you. Tier: Heroic. Prerequisites: Psionic power source and trained in Perception. Benefit: As a standard action, you can detect the presense of living Natural creatures within a Blast 5. This power will detect invisible creatures, but only tells you which direction the lifeform is in, not how far away from you it is (ie this does not tell you exactly which square an invisible creature is in).
Increase the blast size to 10 at 11th level and 15 at 21st level.
Heritage of the Seer Tier: Heroic Prerequisites: Sirian: Family of the Blessed, Navigator, Temporal Influence class feature Benefit: You grant allies within 10 squares of you a +2 racial bonus to initiative.
Spectral Hunter Tier: Heroic Prerequisites: Averoux, Navigator, Spatial Influence class feature Benefit: Once per encounter, when you use your Move with the Pack racial feature, you can teleport up to your Charisma modifier squares instead of shifting.
Latent Empath You can sense the surface emotions of others. Tier: Heroic. Prerequisites: Psionic power source and trained in Insight. Benefit: You gain a +1 feat bonus to Bluff, Diplomacy and Insight. If you are touching someone when they make a bluff check, you gain a +5 feat bonus to insight for your opposing check.
Star Burst With enormous physical strain, you can end your conjourations with a bang. Tier: Heroic. Prerequisites: Navigator, Cha 15. Benefit: You can dismiss a sustain minor Navigator Warp with the conjuration keyword as a standard action. If you do, the conjuration explodes as a burst 1 Constitution vs. Reflex attack that deals 1d6 + 1 radiant damage.
At 11th level the damage increases to 2d6 + 2. At 21st it increases to 3d6 + 3.
If the conjuration occupies more than one square, you choose which square is the origin square for the star burst.
Unnerving Eyes Tier: Heroic Prerequisites: Navigator, Cha 13, Warp Sight class feature Benefit: You gain the use of the Unnerving Eyes encounter power.
Feat Power
Unnerving Eyes Feat Power When enemies look into your eyes, they see the immensity of the universe staring back at them, for most, that is too much to handle.
_______________________ Encounter ✦ Charm, Fear Immediate Interrupt Ranged 10 Trigger: An enemy within range that can see you, and you can see, hits you with a ranged attack.
_______________________ Effect: The target takes a -4 to all ranged attack (including the triggering attack) until the end of it's next turn. Special: You must have the unnerving eyes feat to use this power.
After using this power, you loose the benefits of the Warp Sight class feature until you take a short or extended rest.
Equipment
Psychic Amplifiers
If you are a member of a class that can use a psy-amp as an implement, you can apply the enhancement bonus of a psy-amp to the attack rolls and damage rolls of any of your powers from that class that have the implement keyword, and you can use a psy-amp's properties and powers. Members of other classes gain no benefit from wielding a psy-amp.
A psychic amplifier is an item of technology that is made of two parts; the first is a small electronic node which attatches to the base of the skull or the temple of the user, it scans the wearers brain and syncronises itself with their brainwaves, once this is acheived the device amplifies the specific brainwaves that control psychic abilities. The second part of a psy-amp is a small, heavy rod that sits comfortably in the hand. Via a wireless connection with the node, the rod focuses the amplified brainwaves, increasing accuracy. As with most other implements, you cannot make melee attacks with a rod.

The Temporal Influence and Spacial Influence abilities seem overpowered, especially when at paragon levels.
As most Paragon Paths have an ability that does something extra when an action point is spent, having the above abilities stacking with those can be quite powerful. I'd suggest changing them to an encounter power than can be used twice per encounter in Heroic, 3 times in Paragon, and 4 times in Epic.
Your at-wills are fine except for the following: Doom Prophecy is weak.
I'd change it to "a bonus to attack and damage rolls equal to your Wisdom modifier. Increase to 2 + Wisdom Modifier at level 11, and 4 + Wisdom Modifier at level 21."
I'd also add the following: Temporal Influence:
Target ally regains hit points equal to your constitution modifier. Increase to 1D6 + constitution modifier at level 16.
With Blink and They're Gone level 13 encounter warp, I would state that the allies can still act on their turn. They should get a single action only. This would be explained by the effort to move in a distorted demi-plane. This way they can use a healing surge, move to a better position, etc. Otherwise it could be bad as the enemies can move and heal etc but he allies can't.
I'd also add Spacial Influence: You receive your full set of actions while in the demi-plane.
For Quickening level 16 utility warp, I'd change the bonus from '1' to 'your charisma modifier'. At level 16 an extra 1 isn't that useful.
I'm looking through the Paragon paths now. Will comment soon.
One other thing is I'd increase the number of healing surges a bit. You have several abilities that use a healing surge to power something else. A cleric has 7+con mod and a paladin has 10+con mod. I'd put it between those two, probably 8+con mod.
The reason for this is that heroic tear feats generally have a stat of 13 required. Also for what the descriptive text says, it makes more sense to me to use charisma instead on constitution.
For a feat Star Burst seems too powerful. I would consider changing the damage dice to D4s.

Reason: spelling error
I'm assuming that the Temporal Influence class feature is meant to be a prerequisite but you forgot to type it in? Withering Action (11th Level ability):
The ongoing damage is too high. I would set it a a specific number (say 10), or variable from a stat such as 3 + constitution modifier.
Weight of Ages level 11 encounter warp:
I'd make the penalty to attack roles equal to the stat mod not half of it.
For Star Child Paragon Path: Astral Authority (11th Level):
This is too powerful. I would limit it a number of sustain minor actions equal to your constitution modifier -2 (minimum 2).
Neutron Aspect
I'd add in that all squares within 3 of the Neutron Star are treated as difficult terrain due to the gravitational pull. This way the gravitational pull gets a bit stronger the closer you get, until you are squished.
All in all this is an interesting class.
As a player I would be happy using it, and as a GM I would be happy to allow it (I would make the changes I suggested though).
With some slight modifications you could include this in regular DnD.
Nice work.
My 4E rules-fu is too weak to provide you with worthwhile, rules-based comments but I love the flavour of the class. Very creative and imaginative. You really show how the 4E system could be applied to a high-fantasy sci-fi game.
I'll start off by saying a big thankyou for the feedback it's been a while since anyone has had any insights.

I have to disagree with you here; partially anyway. Temporal Influence is exactly the same as the Warlords Inspiring Presence, so i don't think it needs to be changed. Spatial Influence however I would be prepared to drop the teleport distance down to 1/2 Cha mod (min: 1). Does anyone else think this is necessary?

You bring up an interesting point here; th power doesn't scale as it is. This power was based off the Warlords Commander's Strike, but with a bonus to the attack roll rather than the damage roll. A bonus to attack being a much more powerful advantage that a bonus to damage rolls in 4th Ed; I droped the bonus froma full stat mod to half a stat mod, so i'll add the scaling bonus as you suggest, but not the damage bonus. Also i'd like to stick to the WotC format (something which was pointed out to me on the WotC forums recently), which means no build bonuses on at-wills, utilities and dailies, this does mean i'll be going through and cutting some bonuses rather than adding them!

For Rapid Bout level 1 daily warp, I would add in that the allies do the attack as a free action.
I'd change Tactical Shift level 2 utility warp to "shift" instead of "slide".
For Pause for Breath level 2 utility warp, I'd add: Temporal Influence: The target gains healing surge + your Wisdom modifier.
For Horrific Fate level 3 encounter warp, I'd make it 1D6 + constitution modifier damage, and target is dazed (save ends).
For White Particle level 7 encounter warp, I'd increase the dame to 2d6. This will keep it inline with the other warps at that level.
Other level 1 to 10 stuff is good.
Slow Motion, hmm, I do need a temporal build bonus at this level, but had considered adding the following to Tip the Scales rather than Slow otion:
Temporal Influence: After damaging the target you can choose to spend a healing surge and regain no hit points; instead, an ally who spends a healing surge through the use of this power regains an extra 1d8 + your Constitution modifier hit points. Rapid Bout, I wonder if this is necessary, or indeed true, as the allies attacks use up your standard action, If you still think it's needed I will change it :P Tactical Shift Will Do Pause for Breath, as i said, i will be removing any build bonuses to non encounter powers, so this is a bit redundant. Horrific Fate, Dazed is quite a powerful status at lvl 3, none of the PHB classes can inflict it as (save ends) at this level. I could increase the damage as you suggest but would have to change 'save ends' to 'until the end of your next turn', do you think i should do that? White Particle, same thing here really; blinded is a hugely powerful staus; it makes the target grant CA to everyone and gives everyone total concealment against the target.

Eerie Presence This feat uses Con rather than Cha because it is based off the Navigators influence on time more than it is space; the further from normal time-flow the Nav is, the more disconcerting his presence is to others. I could be convinced to drop the requirement down to 13, but this means that spatial Navs would be able to take the feat from 1st level. Star Burst I have to disagree with you here; in order to use the starbusrt, the Nav must use a standard action, i think this more than easily balances a 1d6+1 burst 1.

With Weight of Ages we come back to the fact that a bonus to attack rolls is quite a powerful thing in 4th Ed, I'm reluctant to bump this power up. Star Child Both of your suggestions for this PP are good ones, and i shall add them in

Invocation of Ice and Fire
Rapid Bout, I wonder if this is necessary, or indeed true, as the allies attacks use up your standard action, If you still think it's needed I will change it :P
The main reason I added this is is because I've seen other abilities from DnD core include it. It just covers the GM to know what actions the players need to take.

Horrific Fate, Dazed is quite a powerful status at lvl 3, none of the PHB classes can inflict it as (save ends) at this level. I could increase the damage as you suggest but would have to change 'save ends' to 'until the end of your next turn', do you think i should do that? White Particle, same thing here really; blinded is a hugely powerful staus; it makes the target grant CA to everyone and gives everyone total concealment against the target.
Your point here is valid. Changing to the end of your next turn instead of save ends is a good idea.

Blink and they're Gone I think you've misread this power; the allies don't get any actions while in the demi-plane because they come back to the battle at the start of their next turn, meaning they get their turn as normal.
I think I may have confused my point here. I realise that the allies don't get a turn but I think it may actually help the enemies. The enemies know where they were. If they are smart enough to know that they will return to the same spot then they can react accordingly, like move an obstacle in the square they will reappear, or move there themselves. They could move through the square the ally defender was threatening to get to a controller at the back without taking an opportunity attack. For these reasons I think the allies should get an action; or slide your con in square; or something else, so that they are not in the same position when they return. At the moment all it does is remove them from damage for a turn but the enemies can regroup and make things really bad upon their return.
I agree with most of the other comments and alterations you suggested.
With these in place you have a very good class on your hands.
it's been a while since anyone has had any insights.
, This path was based off the Clerics Radiant Servant paragon path, and the Withering action ability is exactly the same as that paths Radiant action.
