A bit of chicanery using the RSoPelor class

Post by Judging__Eagle »

The Radiant Servant of Pelor has as it's 5th lvl class feature, a bonus domain (Purification or Glory).

However, it also has the following as part of it's description it states that:


Bonus Domain: A Radiant Servant who reaches 5th level is granted another of Pelor's domains as a third cleric domain, or he can choose the Glory or Purificaiton domain. The can use the granted power ofthe new dmain, and he can can choose from the spell lists of three domains when selecting his domain spells for the day.


So... does that mean an Archivist 7/Sacred Exorcist 3/Contemplate 1/Radiant Servant of Pelor 5 gets to pick from their Sun Domain spells; their newly granted domain; plus.... any other domain per day?

I see, oh what the hell was it called again? Oh yeah, massive potential abuse. You just keep prepping domain spells from a new domain for your "third" domain each day and make scrolls to add to your prayerbook that way.

Takes some levels to pul off though.

Yeah, the built-in assumption that you were a Cleric is hilarious, and in this manner gives you an extra bonus domain if you come in as an Archivist or Druid. But you're still "of Pelor" so you still have to choose from Pelor's Domains.

At least 8, if you have enough sources: Good, Healing, Strength, Sun, Community, Glory, Nobility, Sin(Pride) I think only 4 of those are core, tho.

Ah, oh well, 8 domains to pick from isn't too shabby.

Even if most of them sorta...suck.

Crissa, if you enter as an Archivist you'll have had to pick up the Sun Domain at least once, which leaves little lee-way to get Glory twice.

Actually, I don't think you can get a domain twice anyway.
