Talk:Enlightened Fist (3.5e Prestige Class)
From D&D Wiki
Quick Review[edit]
I'm looking at this prestige class, and one thing in the prerequisites makes no sense to me. Why is there a requirement of 10 ranks in Bluff?
Very well written! I have a few constructive comments to make (otherwise this PrC looks great).
Whenever I see abilities that are a free action I worry about possible implications. This PrC has a problem because of them. Astral clone + astral blink = infinite movement. I'm sure you can see why. It needs rules to say that you cannot have a clone move the same round it was manifested (or something).
At the bottom of the page, it talks about a 9th level Enlightened Fist, but the ability is 10th level. --Aarnott 16:58, 22 October 2008 (MDT)
- Fixed a few issues with the class, including the mismatched levels. Also, I added a clause that says that each clone can only either be projected or recalled in any round and not both. That should balance it out, I think. --Sulacu 02:25, 23 October 2008 (MDT)
- Looks a lot better now. I really like this class. It is a very creative way to make a spiritual monk. --Aarnott 13:36, 24 October 2008 (MDT)
I like this PrC, but I have two concerns. One, there is nothing in the prereq's that require the base character be either a monk and/or a magic caster of any type (A 6th level fighter could meet the prereq's). If you want to bill this as an advanced mystic monk career path then you need to make it more monk-like. If you just want to keep it as it is (not discounting any of the above suggestions) then write it with a different flavor text. Two, there already is an "Enlightened Fist" (see the complete arcane) and it went a whole different direction this this one. Good luck - Saikar
