Do martyr paladin or oathbound paladin abilities that replace smite evil count as inspire courage for battle herald?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


The question here is in the title. Both of these archetypes replace the paladins smite evil ability with an ability that "acts as" bardic performance and they can use inspire courage and other performances pretty much like a bard of the corresponding level. Do these archetypes meet the prerequisite of the battle herald prestige class? I ask this as I would like to play a buff paladin battle herald probably going paladin 4/cavalier 1 / battle herald X for my next PFS character.

Thank you.

P.S. This is my first post to the forums here so if there is a problem with where I posted this please forgive my noobness.


battle herald cares that you have inspire courage, and these get inspire courage, so I don't see why they wouldn't work.


Thanks! The issue I am still concerned with is that the stigmata ability's effect says it duplicates inspire courage which to me means that it isn't inspire courage. Unless I am reading it wrong.


same ability different name makes it the same ability.
