[QUOTE="flametitan, post: 7713786, member: 6822731"] Oh nice I like it. But let's remember we're trying to go for a support class as well, so let's try to think of some means of boosting the endeavours of others. The easiest one I can think of is something akin to Bardic Inspiration (though keyed off of Intelligence to represent experience/make up for the lack of INT based classes?) that can provide additional combat boosts to make up for reduced/no spellcasting (like perhaps the ability for allies to use them as superiority dice and do battlemaster manoeuvres with them.) EDIT: I don't think this is really [i]necessary,[/i] but I had a silly idea for an ability. The mentor often dies in order for the party to learn some wisdom or escape an overwhelming foe. An ability to reflect that (perhaps a permanent bonus in exchange for not being able to raise the fallen mentor, or a temporary bonus in exchange for being able to raise them again) would be flavourful, but would probably encourage strange habits out of the players.
