Gear Knight
Nothing good is made without blood, sweat, and gears.
Prerequisites: “Lay on Hands”, Proficiency with a Heavy Shield, Lawful Good.
Your order has dedicated itself to the construction and maintenance of machines that aid mankind. It is the belief of your order that the precision and resilience of machines is a reflection of the divine. You also use your skills to demolish or disable diabolic devices and infernal engines that threaten life and liberty. Your skills are in high demand in mechanized warfare and you are highly regarded by your fellow technocrats. This paragon class is taken by paladins with an affinity for machines.
Gear Knight Path Features
Ordained Mechanic (11th Level): You can use your “lay on hands” ability to repair vehicles and machines rather than creatures. You may expend a healing surge with a bonus equal to your CHA modifier to heal a vehicle or mechanical object. You can not repair a device reduced to 0 hit points, since it is totally destroyed at that point.
Man Versus Machine (11th Level): You can use your divine power to destroy or repair machines. When you are adjacent to any creature that you have marked with your "divine challenge" ability, it provokes an opportunity attack from you if it makes an attack that does not include you. Furthermore, your damage rolls against a construct or any mechanized vehicle that you challenge deals an extra 2d6 thundering damage.
Steam Cannon Shield Proficiency (11th Level): You are proficient with the Steam Cannon Shield.
Shield Wall (16th Level): You can provide the AC bonus and any additional benefits of your shield to any adjacent ally if a foe you have “marked” attacks an ally adjacent to you.
