Pathfinder preview five: Kyra the Cleric

[mattdroz]

You know, I'm really looking forward to the release. I mean it. For the first time in a long time, I'm interested in playing a cleric (usually it was either "okay I'll fill the slot" or "here's a cool XXXX/Cleric multiclass"). The turning/channel energy and domains needed an overhaul and it sound like you did superbly!

And, the concentration check sounds perfect! Too often in the higher level games, a concentration check was a joke (15+7? Heck, I got 17 ranks it in...). It's nice to see the high level casters worry again...

This is now the third thread on this subject ... :(

My bad... I went looking for it in Announcements.

[Lord Fyre]

Which is normally where it should have been. :D

I like this direction, just curious what is the concentration DC if someone is struck in combat while casting (not defensively)

1) 10 + Damage (dmg) + Spell Level (SL)
2) 10 + dmg + 2xSL
3) 15 + dmg + SL
4) 15 + dmg + 2xSL
5) Something else?

[Galnörag]

Oh, is combat casting still a feat as a +4 to casting defensively?
