[QUOTE="Leopard D, post: 5487509, member: 6672039"] I decided to attempt to hybridize the essentials Cavalier and Hunter from Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms. All references to powers and features are from this book. My main goal was to create a divine class with more bow support than the few powers for clerics from the one Sehanine Dragon Magazine article. The idea was to remove the defender from the cavalier and replace it with the controller from the hunter. Also, the primal within the hunter was replaced with the divine of the cavalier. Thus, I give you the Zealot. Let me know what you think. [SIZE="3"]Class Traits[/SIZE] [B]Hit Points[/B]: You start with hit points equal to 12 + your Constitution score. You gain 5 hit points each time you gain a level. [B]Bonus to Defenses[/B]: +1 Reflex, +1 Will [B]Healing Surges per Day[/B]: 8 + your Constitution modifier [B]Armor Proficiencies[/B]: Cloth, leather [B]Weapon Proficiencies[/B]: Simple melee, military melee; simple ranged, military ranged [B]Implement Proficiencies[/B]: Holy symbols [B]Class Skills[/B]: Acrobatics (Dex), Athletics (Str), Diplomacy (Cha), Endurance (Con), Heal (Wis), History (Int), Insight (Wis), Intimidate (Cha), Perception (Wis), Religion (Int), Stealth (Dex) [B]Trained Skills[/B]: Religion, plus four more from the list of class skills. [SIZE="3"]Heroic Zealot[/SIZE] Level 1: Holy Smite (pg 124), Archery Style (pg 155), Expert Archer (pg 155), Weapon Talent (pg 157), Aspects of the Wild (pg 157), Righteous Shield (pg 125) Level 2: Restore Vitality (pg 126) Level 3: Extra Holy Smite (pg 126) Level 4: Ability Score Increase, Pace of the Virtuous Charger (pg 127) Level 5: Reactive Shift (pg 163), Weapon Mastery (pg 163) Level 6: Utility Power Level 7: Extra Holy Smite (pg 126), Aspect of the Wild Level 8: Ability Score Increase, Spirit of the Virtuous Charger (pg 129) Level 9: Close Combat Archery (pg 165) Level 10: Utility Power For feat and power qualifications, the Zealot is a Paladin. To emphasize the primal-to-divine shift, I refluffed the Aspects of the Wild into the Aspects of the Gods. Aspect of the Cunning Fox: Aspect of Sehanine Aspect of the Dancing Serpent: Aspect of Corellon Aspect of the Pouncing Lynx: Aspect of Kord Aspect of the Lone Wolf: Aspect of the Raven Queen or Ioun Aspect of the Lurking Spider: Aspect of Melora Aspect of the Pack Wolf: Aspect of Erathis or Bahamut Aspect of the Regal Lion: Aspect of Moradin Aspect of the Seeking Falcon: Aspect of Avandra I've only listed the Heroic Tier for brevity's sake, but the pattern continues pretty consistently, more favoring the Hunter for features.
