[QUOTE="Atreides, post: 2965549, member: 42325"] Hmm... Clerics. When I laid the foundation for my Chronicle, there were 3 core classes I was not happy with:> Sorceror (removed it, transformed Psionics into 'Sorcery') Fighter - entirely rewrote the class Cleric - Initially, removed Heavy Armor, everything else was same My Likes for the Cleric are: Spontaneous casting - very good idea Domain Spells and Domain Abilities My Dislikes Are: Heavy Armor Proficiency Cleric Spell list is too broad Cleric spellcasting has little to do with nature of deity - Goddess of healing can cast Flamestrike for isntance Domain abilities, and Domain Spell lists are not even close to relatively balanced - there are clearly overpowered domains, and clearly underpowered domains While it did take a while, I eventually rewrote the Cleric - the core concept was to change the Domains and their spell lists - each domain now has 3 spells of each level on it, and there is also a 'general' lists that all Clerics have access to Now the spellcasting is very thematic to the deity in question. I also changed spontaneous casting from healing/inflict to one domain list of your deity I also added 1 or 2 aditional domain abilities to each domain to better 'balance them' versus each other - each domain is now MUCH more useful [/QUOTE]
