Talk:Sentry (5e Subclass)

Title Me

Just created this. Everyone, please let me know what you think! This is my first time either editing a wiki or creating a class, so I'm sure I've made a number of stupid mistakes! --Celin 03:32, 8 February 2009 (MST)

Okay, I did a few things that have no real changes to the page. First, I linked the skills and feats, also linked your anchors in the table. To link, use [[Link|Text]]. You can also just put [[text]] to directly link to something that's link is text. You only need to put in the PAGE name for wiki links.

Furthermore, you listed the Sentry's class skills as 5+Int, which doesn't work; class skills work on even numbers. So, I pushed it down to 4, but you're welcome to edit your class upto 6.

Finally, the class is pretty weak. Just so you know, I'm sure someone else will expand on this point. --TK-Squared 07:59, 8 February 2009 (MST)

Maybe, to make it stronger, you could give Damage Reduction as an ability, representing how tough it is for anyone to get in the sentrey's way. Additionally, you could add some of the kind of abilities from "defense based" classes, such as Dwarven Defender. Just as ideas. --Monk Boy 23 21:24, 8 February 2009 (EST)

I've added a number of class features, as well as bumped the class skills up to 6, in order to address the underpowering of the class. I'm glad to see that I managed to overcome my natural urge to overpower everything, but I guess I took it too far. :-) I'm always hesitant to add something like Damage Resistance, particularly to a class whose theme does not involve a whole lot of physical resilience. My concern with what I've done is that I'm afraid I'm making the Sentry class *too* good at dealing with stealthy characters. Granted, his weaknesses in other areas might make up for it. What does everyone think? Thanks awfully for your help by the way! --Celin 00:24, 9 February 2009 (MST)
