It also went from being a morale bonus to a competence bonus (I think the former was more appropriate). I like the concept though, and it could be expanded to include other temporary bonuses (to augment the always-on auras).***I think 10th level is a good place for flight (that's where raptorans get it), and I like the flight-related combat bonuses as high level benefits.I liked the fear effect, but I think having a lesser fear effect (shaken) at lower levels and a better one (frightened, like real dragon fear) at high levels would be more appropriate. I also liked the DR but thought that it was a bit late to the party compared to, say the warlock (who gets better DR 1 point at a time starting at a fairly low level). To be fair, the aura DR is a mitigating factor there. Fear and DR are not ubiquitous, but are very common in the draconic world, so I think they are core abilities for the class and should be gotten earlier and better.The breath weapon I think was better as a complementary piece. When you put that much damage (1d6/level every 1d4 rounds for an entire day) in a PC's hands, I begin to worry about the noncombat ramifications of being able to do that much damage in an area indefinitely (destroying towns and such). Also, the Dragonfire Adept was a separate class.Maybe to ameliorate this HD/BAB divide, the class should have d8 and get toughness as a bonus feat?I'm not sure I really see much in the rules that carried the concept through. I think a less dominant breath weapon and a few other supernatural powers are in order.</blockquote>
