[QUOTE="Ezel, post: 6631621, member: 6795910"] I like the idea and the features are interesting and bring to some interesting spiritual fluff that I love. I think that it has way too many features for a full caster though, both because it might bring too much power, and because it really is too much to read. The cleric in the PHB is one of the full casters with the most features and yet it has 5 blank spaces and gets to have more than one feature at once only at levels 1, 2, 6, 8, 17. In general classes don't have that many features to keep track of usually, your class ends up being pretty complicated and full of options. There are 4 features at level 1 (in the PHB only the rogue gets to 3 features and one is a ribbon feature), it gets more than one feature at levels 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 17 and it has no blank space where it gets only spell and proficiency advancement. I think a lot of things need to be summarised, simplified and cut, otherwise it is a very nice class with a lot of good flavor. If you notice there are usually not many lists of choices you can make entirely tied to the class, warlock gets invocations, battlemaster gets maneuvers. Then there is spellcasting and smaller sets of options like archetype choice, and only the warlock gets to choose between 2 things that pretty much make the archetype. Your priest has domains, types of idol, idol aspects, divine boons, spellcasting. That is a lot to keep track of. I would also advise to use a layout more similar to the PHB, the current layout is very hard to read through because of titles being all very similar between each other. [/QUOTE]
