![]() Hmm.So become undead for the d12 HD and lose CON, so that makes you pretty much straight STR/CHA. At second level, you'd get twice your CHA to your saves, which is nearly all the good things about Blackguard right there. Assuming that you only ate five levels of Paladin, taking your first level in something else like Sneak Attack Fighter, you'd have 2d6 SA at 7th level in addition to a lot of neat stuff. With 1d6 Sneak attack, you actually qualify for some pretty dumb shenanigans. You'd still have Aura of Evil per PoT or Blackguard whichever is strongerĮDIT: Hmm. Basically, it's what the OP is asking about but with MUCH less rules interference.Īssuming earliest possible entry, which would be 7th level, so 6 levels of Paladin of Tyranny/Slaughter. I'm now curious about a Paladin of Tyranny/Slaughter PrCing into Blackguard.If you take the parentheses as being an allowance to the statement instead of a clarification, you'd get all of the effects of being a Paladin of Tyrrany and a blackguard without losing any abilities. Though if the above works, Paladin of Tyranny would breeze its way right into double class features with Blackguard. You'd have to have a VERY lenient deity not to call gaining such a benefit from evil against your code of conduct, however. To address your concerns, if you are SOMEHOW able to navigate and get around the massive minefield that the concept lays out intact, I can see no reason that you wouldn't add your CHA bonus to your saves twice, get detect evil and detect good, have both an evil and good aura (assuming there isn't RAW that those don't somehow stack, maybe you show up grey as opposed to red or blue respectively), and get a Smite Evil AND Smite Good. The third one is to say that it does specifically say "ex-paladins" due to the aforementioned conflict of alignment, so one RAW reading could say that once you're no longer an ex-paladin, even if you keep the Blackguard's other class features by interpreting that the class requirements clause set forth in Complete Warrior or Arcane don't extend to other books, you don't get the segment in the Fallen Paladins section of the Blackguard description.ĮDIT: NOW THEN. If your table treats them as global rules, then I'm sorry, no. The first two are basically if you're playing by "Once you stop qualifying you lose the class" rules, which were set forth in Complete Warrior and Complete Arcane. Blackguards who have levels in the paladin class (that is to say, are now ex-paladins)Ok.
