It's "Master of Arms" technically. I called it Weapon Master from the start in reference to the 4e version but since there's a feat called that I changed it.

In 4e there was a fighter build that allowed you to have 3 weapons on hand and switch between them and each had a specific benefit based on what kind of weapon it was. This is the same concept except with rules for each specific weapon. Not without bonuses to hit. The Str ones are balanced to...

Absolutely. Whereas you can normally carry as many weapons as your carrying capacity can hold to no ill effect and switch them out once per turn as part of your movement, with this feature you instead attach a small selection of weapons (3 in total) to your body with latches, adhesives, or other...

Oh also if anyone has homebrew monsters they want to suggest I reference in the tier lists, let me know! Some of the types are a little sparse on options in the Monster Manual.

It's not as big of a deal as it's made out to be. Ranged attacks and armor class don't even matter since you would be using dex anyway if you were going a ranged fighter. Initiative and save, sure, but this is a matter of opportunity costs here. To get high ability scores in both Str and Dex...

Yes you can. That is what the tenets are for. All 3 Paladins can be held to a standard of conduct or else have their powers taken away. However, the Oath of Vengeance class has its stipulation to allow an otherwise GOOD character to do evil acts. Rules are good for a class that is based around a...

Those for alignment changes. Either class mechanics or basic rules that localize it to the character for acting outside their alignment. Because he's literally just following his tenets, which if he doesn't follow, THEN there are personal consequences. The other classes aren't held to those...

Localizing it to personal consequences is ideal. Party splitting is less so, but that's the party's decision in the end. One of the party members is his childhood friend and another wants him to succeed for financial reasons so I don't think they would choose to just LEAVE him. But maybe. And...

I mean... To be honest, that's one thing I LIKE about the Oath of Vengeance Paladin. It's that it's such a driving class. But the issue is that it's VERY hard for other classes to be that assertive when the class is so singleminded against a sworn enemy like that inherently. I think the better...

Yeah we've gone over this a lot. It's been the conversation for the last 7 pages. Thank you, although we're trying to find a way to localize consequences to the character in specific so the whole party isn't derailed from his zeal. edit to your edit: That's a very good idea! However, I...

Tenets are more than guidelines. NOT following them is a big issue and you can take away a Paladin's powers for THAT. House ruling is probably a final resort. He modeled his character around his tenets and I would hope there is a catch-22 in that itself for consequences, but I haven't been...

Look, how many times do I have to say it for it to come across? His crusade isn't the problem. The consequences that befall him for acting in his tenets are. It's not that he wants to be a spotlight hog, it's that by acting in his tenets it happens naturally with the consequences of them that...

... Let me ask you something; have you ever not been able to play a game you wanted, or been able to watch a movie because your family or another obligation dragged you along somewhere and you made the best of it? Yeah you had fun, but it wasn't what you wanted to do. Again, the zealotry is...

Does the other class encourage them against moral decision making in the name of justice? Again, I'm not going to railroad his character with homebrew rules. He role plays him well and he's following the rules as far as I can tell (and I was hoping someone would have brought to my attention...

As I've said what? 8 times now? The game can hardly progress if we are constantly having to deal with his stuff. He's driving the action away from what everyone else wants to do. They might be having fun doing whatever but they don't have the freedom to role play and do their things when the...
