[Spheres of Might] Question on Darkness Defender Archetype


Advice and Rules Questions


Hey question on the Darkness Defender archetype regarding violent challenge and guardian challenge, does violent challenge replace or modify guardian challenge? I really like the archetype, probably better than the main Sentinel class, but this might change my mind if it replaces guardian challenge.


Violent Challenge adds to the normal Guardian Challenge power (when you're Berserking, anyway). Technically, it doesn't replace OR modify Guardian Challenge - you can tell because it doesn't actually say "this ability replaces X". If that line is absent, then it doesn't replace any initial power you have, regardless of similarities or differences.


It probably should say modify based on other archetypes, but ok.

This is intended to modify guardian's challenge rather than replace it, seems a line got lost.

Awesome, that is what I figured, but wanted to be sure, thanks!!
