[QUOTE="FireLance, post: 5644990, member: 3424"] At 7th level, the radiant avenger learns to release the radiant energy he channels with [I]smite of radiance[/I] into a burst of searing light. [INDENT][B]Pulse of Radiance[/B] Paladin Attack Encounter * Divine, Implement, Radiant Standard Action Close burst 2 Requirement: You must have at least one use of [I]smite of radiance[/I] remaining Target: Each enemy in burst Attack: Charisma vs. Reflex Hit: 1d6 + Charisma modifier radiant damage. [I]Level 17[/I]: 2d6 + Charisma modifier radiant damage. [I]Level 27[/I]: 3d6 + Charisma modifier radiant damage. Effect: You expend one use of [I]smite of radiance[/I].[/INDENT]The radiant avenger may use [I]pulse of radiance[/I] twice per encounter at 17th level, and three times per encounter at 27th level. [B]Simplify![/B] At the DM's option, this power may be used as many times per encounter as the character can use [I]smite of radiance[/I]. This requires less tracking on the part of the player, but it makes the character more effective against groups of enemies. [I]Pulse of radiance[/I] gives the radiant avenger some multi-attack capability and increases the complexity of the class because it presents an alternate use for [I]smite of radiance[/I], and also because the player must track uses of [I]pulse of radiance[/I] and [I]smite of radiance[/I] separately unless the [B]Simplify![/B] option is taken. This is in line with the design objectives of gradually increasing complexity and a class that works well for solo campaigns. The power does affect a larger area than the existing 7th-level paladin powers, but it is not out of line for an area striker such as the sorcerer. EDIT: Fixed the scaling. [/QUOTE]
