Paladin/Ranger spell progression

[KOPOJIbPAKOB]

I have never played paladin on the server (only ranger with 8 wisdom), so I have a newbie question about spell progression. In description under BGTSCC features it is said, that now they have full progression instead of 1/2. Does this mean they will have their maximum level spells at 10th level and after this they won't get any new spells?

Nope. Same spell acquisition rate. Just higher CL.

The CL progression changed to full, meaning you get 1CL with every ranger level. The spell slot progression has not changed though and rangers/paladins get 3/3/3/3 spell slots in the end + Bonus spell slots from WIS modifier.

It makes a significant boost to the enjoyment to playing a Paladin, with the full durations.

while still being less than fully enjoyable since if you want to make full use of buffs you generally have to juggle equipment to get bonus spells when you rest, buff up, then put your real equipment on... Would be nice if they could get somewhere just below Bard. I think Bard gets 6/5/5/5/5/5/4 (0-6 spells per day) so might be nice for Paladins and/or Rangers to get something like 4/4/4/3. However, both classes are already very strong so this kind of bump is likely to be met with less than resounding support (which I fully understand). To me it is a quality of life thing because bonus spell per day items are not difficult to get, it's just a PitA to use them when you still want/need your actual gear once your buffed up.

Meh, not bloody likely, but a man can dream.

Bard Spell Progression

Code: Select all

Spell levels:   0	1	2	3	4	5	6
Spells know:    6	5	5	5	5	5	4	
Spells per day: 4	4	4	4	4	4	4 

You can get more spells per day with items or higher charisma modifier.

So maybe the primary issue is that there is high end bard gear that gives spells per day plus extra's, while the majority of paladin and ranger spell/day items are either from RIG or only give bonus spells/day. While RIG items can be nice it's exceedingly rare to get spells / day with anything else useful.

Code: Select all

Spell levels:   0	1	2	3	4	5	6
Spells know:    6	5	5	5	5	5	4	
Spells per day: 4	4	4	4	4	4	4 

You can get more spells per day with items or higher charisma modifier.

Bards progress their spells every level, like every other class with full spell progression. Rangers/paladins only progress them every other level
