Generally you incur the disabled status when you are at exactly 0HP. Being disabled means you act staggered (can only make a single move or standard action), and take 1HP of damage if you take a standard action. This 1HP damage will put you below 0HP, and therefore you are now dying and can do nothing but try and stabilize.

Diehard lets you retain the disabled status while below 0HP.

Hope that clears things up for you =)

Yes, I meant Lore Warden sorry.
Ah yes kantas, that makes sense. I had not considered the proficiency as a class feature. So yes, it would overlap, meaning I can not take the archetype at level 2 because of an overlapping feature. Thanks!

As you say, my backup idea was to either:
Take level 1 as a barbarian or a paladin (for the armour proficiency) then take level 2 as a lore warden fighter?
or
Use a feat on proficiency.

Thanks for the quick reply =)

I am looking to build a stubborn law warden.
He grew up as a street kid, and learnt how to fight at a young age. When he was taken in by one of the society factions, they forced him into School/Training to become a law warden. However, his history of bullying and fighting for scraps resulted in him becoming quite stubborn. He became a law warden who doesn't care about ready books and that whole 'learning' thing. He boycotts the history classes to go train out in the yard with the fighters; a much more useful skill in his opinion.

My idea is to take first level as a core fighter class, then specialise as a law warden at level two. My question is, will doing this result in me keeping the core fighter class proficiency with all armour and shields, and lose the bonus skill points per level (which is what I want)? OR, when I take the Law Warden archetype, will I lose proficiency with armour?

Thanks!
