Empyreal Knight with Warrior of the Holy Light


Rules Questions


I just want to know if I'm reading this correctly. Warrior of the Holy Light takes away a paladin's spells in exchange for more uses of Lay on Hands, and another way to use Lay on Hands. Empyreal Knight takes away the class feature Lay on Hands (as well as all uses for them), giving Warrior of the Holy Light nothing to add uses to, and nothing to fuel Power of Faith with. Therefore, Empyreal Knight plus Warrior of the Holy Light equals the paladin losing spells for nothing in return. Correct?

Seems like it. I'd say avoid the combo.

You could also argue the combo is illegal as Holy Light modifies lay on hands, and Empryreal Knight removes it.

Nope, the combo is illegal as they're both modifying the same class feature.


Yeah, I was letting the archetype table on d20pfsrd confuse me. It doesn't mark a change to Lay on Hands for Warrior of the Holy Light, so I thought an addition might not count as an alteration. Yup, the fault was definitely mine.
