Divine Vigor Feat 3.5
- (3.5) cleric feats. The Complete Divine errata changed divine metamagic to require you to have the selected metamagic feat, so extend spell and persistent spell are going to be necessary. And once you get 3rd level spells put persistent mass lesser vigor from Spell Compendium on the whole party.
- Check out some Divine Feats. At 6th level, you can grab Divine Armor for swift action DR 5/- for the round. At 1st level, you can grab Divine Vigor for standard action +10ft to landspeed and +2 temp hp/character level for a number of minutes equal to your Cha mod.
- Best build for a cleric? I will be playing a 1st level cleric tomorrow, this will be my first time playing the class. Any help with what feats to take, my role in the group, dos and don'ts, etc. Make sure you look into Divine Metamagic as a feat.

A number of the standard character classes represent very specific (if not always specialized) roles in the game. These classes-the bard, the paladin, and the ranger-might require special training to enter, training that can be mimicked by transforming these classes into prestige classes.
With this variant, these classes become off limits for starting (1st-level) characters. Thus, the three prestige classes presented below represent elite character archetypes, roles that can only he achieved through training in specific areas of knowledge and expertise. In each case, the prestige class recreates the feel of the character class, but with slight variations. Each class has fifteen levels, allowing a character who enters at 6th level to continue along that path all the way up to 20th level.
If you use any of the variant classes presented here, the standard version of the class should be unavailable. For instance, you shouldn't include both the standard paladin character class and the paladin prestige class in the same game.
Unique Spells
The bard, paladin, and ranger spell lists contain a number of spells that don't appear on other classes' spell lists. In general, any character who enters one of these prestige classes should gain access to spells unique to that class's spell list, at the same levels indicated for the standard class. At the game master's discretion, spells unique to that class's spell list found in other books may also be available, but on a case by case basis. The game master may require such spells to be researched or learned specifically by the character, rather than simply making them freely available.
Prestige Bard
The prestige bard is a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. She relies on wit, agility, and no small amount of magic to see her through her daring adventures.
Virtually all characters who become prestige bards are already multiclass characters, usually mixing rogue and wizard or rogue and sorcerer. Some dabble in barbarian or fighter as well, depending on their social backgrounds.
NPC prestige bards may serve as heralds, tale-tellers, spies, ne'er-do-wells, or all of the above. Some work in troupes, others form colleges, but most share a strong streak of independence.
Compared to the standard character class, the prestige bard gains her bardic music abilities later in her career, but has a greater range of spells available.

Class Features
All the following are class features of the prestige bard class.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
As the standard bard. A prestige bard can cast any arcane spells in light armor without the normal arcane spell failure chance.
Spellcasting
When a new prestige bard level is gained (except at 1st, 3rd, 7th, and 13th level), the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as if she had also gained a level in whatever arcane spellcasting class she belonged to before she added the prestige class.
A prestige bard casts arcane spells from the schools of divination, enchantment, and illusion at +2 caster level. She casts arcane spells from the schools of evocation and necromancy at -2 caster level.
Bardic Knowledge (Ex)
As the standard bard ability of the same name.
Bardic Music
As the standard bard ability of the same name, except that the minimum number of ranks in Perform required is increased by 5 (8 ranks for countersong, fascinate, or inspire courage; 11 ranks for inspire competence, and so forth).
Prestige Paladin
After training in the arts of combat and the mysteries of the divine, the prestige paladin is anointed as a holy warrior dedicated to the protection of law and goodness.
Most prestige paladins are clerics or fighter/clerics, though rare cleric/monks might pursue this path as well.
NPC prestige paladins usually belong to a holy order dedicated to a lawful good deity. Some are lone wanderers, dealing out justice while walking the earth.
Compared to the standard paladin, the prestige paladin gives up a small amount of combat prowess in exchange for a larger spell list and a higher top end of his spellcasting powers. Also, his class features aren't quite as powerful as the standard paladin's as a result of his reduced paladin class level.

Class Features
All the following are class features of the prestige paladin class.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
As the standard paladin.
Spells per Day
A prestige paladin's training focuses on divine spellcasting. At every odd numbered level reached, the prestige paladin gains new spells per day as if he had also gained a level in whatever divine spellcasting class he belonged to before he added the prestige class.
Detect Evil (Sp)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name.
Smite Evil (Su)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name.
Turn Undead (Su)
For the purpose of determining his ability to turn undead, a prestige paladin's class levels stack with his levels from all his other classes from which he has gained the ability to turn undead. For instance, a 4th-level fighter/1st-level cleric/2nd-level prestige paladin would turn undead as a 3rd-level cleric.
Divine Grace (Su)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name.
Lay on Hands (Su)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name, except that the total number of hit points of damage that a prestige paladin can heal per day is equal to his Charisma modifier x (his paladin level + 3). For example, a 3rd-level prestige paladin with a Charisma of 16 (+3 modifier) can heal 18 points of damage per day.
Special Mount (Sp)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name, except treat the prestige paladin's effective level as three higher when calculating the mount's bonus Hit Dice, powers, and so forth.
Aura of Courage (Su)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name.
Divine Health (Ex)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name.
Remove Disease (Sp)
As the standard paladin ability of the same name, except that a prestige paladin gains the ability at 4th level and can use this ability one additional time per week for every four levels gained thereafter (twice at 8th and three times at 12th).
Code of Conduct and Associates
These restrictions are the same as those described for the standard paladin class.
Ex-Paladins
Same as for the standard paladin, but with no restrictions on multiclassing.
Prestige Ranger
The prestige ranger navigates the dark forests, craggy mountains, or desert wastes of her homeland with unparalleled skill. She becomes one with nature while remaining a deadly hunter.
Most prestige rangers are former druids, though some multiclass in barbarian, fighter, or rogue. Some replace druid levels with cleric levels, selecting the Animal domain. If your campaign uses the wilderness rogue, that class also provides a good starting point for a would-be prestige ranger.
NPC prestige rangers are typically loners, trusting few but themselves while on the hunt. Some form loose affiliations of like-minded individuals, occasionally relying on each other for assistance in dire times.
Compared to the standard ranger, the prestige ranger gives up immediate access to some of her iconic abilities (such as favored enemy) by having to qualify for the class, but has a much wider selection of spells.
