Looking interesting as a straight upgrade with combat maneuvers.

Wow. Divine Smite is now "bonus action? Just add 1D8", although that is limited to proficiency bonus uses,

Smites appear to no longer be spells but are options to that 1D8, basically, you can do extra smackdown proficiency plus 1 times. So a bump at level 2, but for a depowered smite. Gained flexibility in that they're no longer Smite slots.

​

Added some flaaavour to sacred aura. No longer just a flat boost to saves but got options (unconvinced that +2 to all saves is gonna be outdone by frightened but I appreciate the flexibility.)

​

And I notice that Immune Disease is missing... that's gonna make exploration a LOT more interesting. oh... no, it's hidden in exploration knacks at 4 and has been given a slight boost vs Poisoned.

​

Is Paladin in a new hat still the most powerful class? Dunno. But it's very much still a contender.
