[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9734691, member: 54629"] My thoughts on the subclasses: [B]Circle of Preservation: [/B]This druid isn't a preserver. They aren't "preserving" the land. They're [I]rejuvenating / revitalizing [/I]it. This should be called the Circle of Rejuvenation instead. Or something like that. Also, I don't like that it's a cube. That shape feels too artificial to me. A sphere (or emanation) would be my preference. In terms of the mechanics, though, I like those just fine. I just hope that an actual "preserving" mechanic is available to all spellcasters. [B]Gladiator: [/B]I still have my AD&D 2e black faux-leather Dark Sun Complete Gladiator's Handbook! I appreciate the nod to that book here, and this subclass looks like it could be fun to play. I think it would be nicer if they could just add their Cha mod to their AC all the time, and maybe get some Improvised Weapon attack booster, or be able to dual-wield a trident and a net more easily or something. Maybe some sort of "rally the crowd" kind of ability?

Mechanically, this is a great evil-energy subclass that feels like it's how the Sorcerer-Kings would've got their start way back when ... [B]Sorcerer-King Patron: [/B]Is this the new templar? I don't know how I feel about making this a PC option. I'd much prefer to keep anyone allied with the Sorcerer-Kings as antagonists. Mechanically it's fine, though, I guess. [/QUOTE]
