The Paladin Point buy is part of the bigger Proficiency System. Please read the Proficiency Page first before reading this one. Paladin Point Buy provides Packs for a Character to become proficient in a Faith-based defensive style of combat, using holy blessings and the powers of the Gods to strike back at enemies who harm allies. Paladin Point Buy thrives with allies, but is generally not good on duelists or lone wolves. As with many other Faith based Proficiencies, Paladin Point Buy has several rules associated with it.

Paladin Point Buy Rules

  • In order to Point Buy any Packs from Paladin Point Buy, the Character must be a devout Unionist (of any Unionist branch), or a devout Estellon or Estelsoor worshiper.
  • Paladin Point Buy derives its power from the Gods, so it is very clearly not Magic in nature. Still, in Regalia, non-Unionist God Powers are considered Magic in some way.
  • Paladin Point Buy is not locked to a Stance, but Abilities there-in have a special mechanic called Critical Strike, which increases Ability potency as the user gets weaker.

Critical Strike Mechanic

Paladin Point Buy has special Abilities that have slightly altered mechanical rules depending on how much health the user has lost. The user must always consider whether to use the Abilities early for their Strategic value or to delay their use for late-stage combat power spiking. The mechanic is described as below:

  • Divine Defense as an Ability must be active for the Critical Strike Mechanic to apply. Paladin Point Buy Abilities can also be used in conjunction with Constitution, just without Critical Strikes.
  • Each time a Paladin Point Buy Ability is used, the user must "/dice 1 6" which results in a dice roll between the numbers 1 and 6. By default only rolling 1 means the Ability has Critical Strike.
  • If an Ability has Critical Strike, its upgraded feature is automatically applied, meaning that a more potent version of the Ability is used instead of the default function as described.
  • For each HP the user loses, Critical Strike chance increases by 1. This means starting at 6 HP, Critical Strike hits at dice roll 1, 3 HP at dice roll 1-4, and 1 HP guarantees Critical Strike without rolling.
