[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 5405569, member: 4937"] Hmmm... I've been thinking about doing a luck based class for a while because such characters seem to occur frequently in literature as sidekicks. I haven't done it yet because I'm not sure how to balance it. I think it's a challenging but worthwhile subject, so kudos for taking up the challenge. You execution doesn't do alot for me though. My first impression of the class you wrote up is that its not mechanically unique enough doesn't fit a strong enough archetype, and it's largely just a hodge podge of ideas taken from other classes. I don't think it captures the sort of literary character who depends on luck that inspired me to want such a class, and in fact it mostly seems to be some sort of 'Evil Eye' type character more suitable to a witch or warlock than anything else. The bonus feat list only reinforces the 'Support Warlock' schtick that the write up conveys to me, and the general structure of the class makes me wonder whether or not you could achieve nearly the same thing by playing a rogue or a bard.
