I'm getting the impression that everyone here really likes the 2E rules for specialty priests - suggesting that they are desired in 5E.
Everyone thought they were interesting and flavorful... and that a standard cleric was way more powerful than most of them.I'm getting the impression that everyone here really likes the 2E rules for specialty priests - suggesting that they are desired in 5E.
Sounds nice, but I don't know 2e rules well enough to comment.
Perhaps you could post an explanation as to what you feel makes them mechanically special?
That's what I thought. In that case, I think it's good. The more different characters can be mechanically different, the better. The more specific the religious classes are to their religion, the better.In 2E, specialty priests differed from standard clerics because their abilities were customized by deity.
