[QUOTE="glass, post: 8068729, member: 12251"] But having a clear and distinct class list increases "ease of translation and backward compatibility". To meet the other goals, a Fighter class in A5e would be different from the PHB Fighter in everything but name, so calling it the same name would only create confusion IMNSHO.   That's a shame. Still, thanks for confirming!    Yes, that was the name I was thinking of when I said some would have to change (along with Warlord).    That would make sense, but would obviously invite comparison with the PF1 Kineticist. But since that is not a bad place to look for  inspiration anyway I am not sure it is a problem. Quoting myself because I had another thought while I was at the gym, to address my lack of divine classes. Lets call it the [B]Divinate[/B] for now, it woul use the same "half-class" mechanic as the Synthesist, but only one half with the other half being divine. So the god of magic would have Divinate (Mages). Everyone might have Divinates of martial classes as temple guardians, but the god of war would probably have more. Probably moot now, but I am still interested in peoples lists and/or comments on my list if people want to give them... _ glass. [/QUOTE]
