He also gets a good BAB progression and proficiency equaling a fighters. The following is the feat chains available (any weapon-specific feats have to deal with the judge's chosen weapon, described below).Power Attack-->Cleave-->Great Cleave-->Dodge-->Mobility-->Whirlwind AttackPower Attack-->Weapon Focus-->Weapon Special.-->Improved Crit.-->Greater Weapon Focus-->Greater Weapon Special.-->Improved SunderPoint Blank Shot-->Far Shot-->Shot on the Run-->Rapid Reload-->Precise Shot-->Improved Precise Shot-->Mounted ArcheryPoint Blank Shot-->Rapid Shot-->Many Shot-->Power Shot-->Precise Shot-->Improved Precise Shot-->Rapid ReloadQuicken Spell-->Enlarge Spell-->Extend Spell-->Heighten Spell-->Empower Spell-->Widen Spell-->Maximize SpellDrawing from its wizard heritage, the judge can cast spells from the wizard/sorcerer spell list, based on Int. Below is its spells/day and spells known, starting at 0th and going up to 6th. On the other hand, the judge can use spells when wearing any type of armor, but still takes ASF chance from shields and the like.1st--1/0--4/22nd--1/0--4/23rd--1/0--4/24th--2/1--5/35th--2/1/0--5/36th--2/1/0--5/3/27th--3/2/0/0--5/4/2/28th--3/2/1/0--5/4/3/29th--3/2/1/0/0--5/4/3/2/210th--3/3/1/1/0--5/5/3/3/211th--3/3/2/1/0/0--5/5/4/3/2/212th--3/3/2/1/0/0--5/5/4/3/3/213th--3/3/2/2/1/0/0--5/5/4/4/3/2/214th--3/3/3/2/1/1/0--5/5/5/4/3/3/215th--3/3/3/2/2/1/0--5/5/5/4/4/3/216th--3/3/3/3/2/1/1--5/5/5/5/4/3/317th--3/3/3/3/2/2/1--5/5/5/5/4/4/318th--3/3/3/3/3/2/1--5/5/5/5/5/4/319th--3/3/3/3/3/2/2--5/5/5/5/5/4/420th--3/3/3/3/3/3/2--5/5/5/5/5/5/4In addition, the class requires the character to choose a chosen weapon by level 2. The character must be proficient with the weapon, and the weapon must be either martial or a two-handed weapon (including bastard swords). When using this weapon, the character gains +1 bonus to attack and +2 bonus to damage (these bonuses stack with any other bonuses). The character may only cast spells and gain the benefit of the classes bonus spells (excepting combat casting) when wielding this weapon.Is this OP?</blockquote>
