Titan's Rage - Paladin

[SillyString]

1) Does the Rage subdomain qualify you for activating the titan's rage mythic path ability as a free action, or does it not count as the rage class feature?

2) Does a bloodrager dip qualify you for activating the titan's rage as a free action? (the wording is ambiguous as to whether or not it counts as rage for everything or just most things, and i dont know if "mythic path ability effects" is one of them)

If not, what are other ways for a paladin to get the rage class feature? (obviously I can't dip barbarian - being LG, but I know some archetypes can get it like the wild stalker ranger, and the viking fighter, but they require a 4 level dip, which is a bit much.)

Ooh, just found Furious Guardian Archetype on the pfsrd, so even if both questions are no, I now have a good back up plan.

Yeah, it'll be someone that hasnt GM'd before so they said they're wanting to keep it as simple as possible, it'll be enough of a stretch to convince her to let me play a non-core prestige class or a bloodrager, let alone introducing her to the concept of vmc or trying to get her to bend alignment rules. We're only using mythic because she likes the idea. The advice is appreciated though :)

well eliminating alignment restrictions is the simplest thing ever

Actually, you can dip Barbarian if you take the following mythic ability (tier 3 minimum).

Quote:

Beyond Morality (Ex): You have no alignment. You can become a member of any class, even one with an alignment requirement, and can never lose your membership because of a change in alignment. If you violate the code of ethics of any of your classes, you might still lose access to certain features of such classes, subject to GM discretion. Attempts to detect your alignment don't return any results. If a class restricts you from casting spells with an alignment descriptor, you can cast such spells without restrictions or repercussions. If you're the target of a spell or effect that is based on alignment, you're treated as the most favorable alignment when determining the spell's effect on you. Any effects that alter alignment have no effect on you. If you lose this effect, you revert to your previous alignment.

Yeah, what i'm getting at is she'll likely be going "by the book" (specifically the crb, for the most part), dont get me wrong, its a good suggestion.

Beyond morality is interesting, i'll need to work out how dear the path abilities will be for this character, but I like it as another alternative if neither of the answers to the questions are yes.

[SillyString]

Bonus Question: If I were to take "beyond morality" would I lose access to Divine Fighting Technique?

Anyone answering the first two questions would be great too :)

[Khudzlin]

I'd say you no longer meet the prerequisite for Divine Fighting Technique (same alignment as the relevant deity), since you no longer have an alignment.

For the initial questions, I lean toward yes for #2, but I'm no expert.

The more recent printing of Divine Fighting Technique (in Divine Anthology) says you only need to worship the deity, not have the same alignment.

Wow, has there been any info regarding if one or the other is correct?

Edit: Found the answer on This Page
(it depends on which techniques you're using)

Also, holy crap that opens up some options for me, thanks for the replies :)
