[QUOTE="GreenTengu, post: 7725165, member: 6777454"] No, saying you don't like the class doesn't make one small-minded and selfish. Saying that the class should never be officially published in any form for any person to ever play or you will boycott the entire edition and get everyone else you know to do so as well makes one small-minded and selfish. And you know which one they did?... Yeah, it was the second one. Its why it isn't in the PHB when even the 4E version of Tiefling and the watered-down Dragonpeople are in the book, and instead of making it in an expansion book they are instead making these really niche subclasses that aren't going to be very satisfying because they designed subclasses in a way that there really isn't much you can do with one to alter the class as drastically as they want to do so. One only gets 5 levels at which a subclass gets features that are distinct from the standard class. Just level 3, 7, 10, 14 and 18. Using only those 5 levels out of a 20 level progression they are going to try to duplicate the abilities of the Paladin in the Fighter class. Moreover, some of those features are set aside for mount abilities despite the fact that they acknowledge that basically no one uses mounted combat. So take a moment and reflect on that. Then you will realize... obviously that can't work. [/QUOTE]
