[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 7745652, member: 6779196"] If they’re planning to make Paladins Alignment-locked, and to have multiple types of Paladin locked to different alignments, then it makes sense to focus on the LG Paladin for the playtest. But I will say, I’m disappointed to see Paladins being restricted to one alignment [i]and[/i] having a universal code of conduct [i]in addition to[/i] having to choose a deity and follow its alignment restrictions and avoid its Anathema. I had been hoping the latter would replace the former, or that they’d focus on Paladins as champions of their ideals rather than gods, and leave the champion of the gods concept to Clerics. For what it’s worth, I like that they’re very specific about what a Paladin loses if they break their code, and how they get it back. The code itself I think needs work, but at least the consequences are hard coded into the rules and aren’t just “you become a Fighter” or “you lose all of your Paladin Feats and Class Features,” and you know exactly what you need to do to repent.
