[QUOTE="mellored, post: 7320339, member: 6801209"] Full class. You want the room to explore a unique mechanic. And there's so many thing to build. Agreed. Sub-class of the artificer. Hexblade seems to check all the boxes. Armor, weapons, and spells. Though, I think there may be room for a full class magical swordsman. Not just a fighter with spells, but something that blends the two together. I really don't see what makes gladiators different from other fighters. What does "showboat" do? IMO, make it a Tactican sub-class. Granting attacks by playing bait, blind with a custard pie, and making a fool of the enemies until they charge at you and tumble away behind the fighter. As you describe it, it's a background. I mean, Elton John is a Knight. And I don't see how extra HP makes you more knightly. So you'll have to come up with something that makes it actually stand out. Otherwise, paladin have shiney armor and codes. Agree. Psyonic would be a better name. And there is enough to fill a class and sub-classes. I think this could fit in with the magical swordsman, along with duskblade. Something that blends magic and weapons. Actually. I think the best option would be to re-do the monk, and open it up to all the mystical fighters. Duskblade, Ninja, Monk (Jacki-Chan), Monk (Dragonball Z), The last Air Bender, Book of 9 Sword, could all fit nicely together. Mixing martial attacks and Ki powered effects. That seems like a really contrived mechanic. Keep as a background. See divine soul. Agreed. But that ship has sailed, and it's not worth the rework. I'm iffy on it. It doesn't seem that as being different enough from a regular druid. Circle of the Shepard covers the missing points. But, if I had a redo. I would split them. A Shapeshifter class, and a Spirit Caster class that doesn't use spell slots. That's not a bad idea. Still adds a lot of rolling if the enemy ever casts fireball. So maybe?? Agreed. People need to define what they mean by Witch before it can be put anywhere. [/QUOTE]
