On a card I recently received they gave me the impression that the following will be in the Complete Divine (CD) by the notation they have made:

- New classes or reprints in the Complete Divine - Favored Soul, Spirit Shaman

- Prestige classes - Contemplative, Divine Oracle, Geomancer, Sacred Exoricst (guessing reprints of DotF)

- Feats - Augmented Healing, Disciple of the Sun, Glorious Weapon, Practiced Spellcaster

What's everyone think...?

hmmm not real impressed

Contemplative. Divine Orcale and Sacred Exoricst are repeat material from Dotf

And the Geomancer's a reprint from MotW , while the Favored Soul is a reprint from the Miniatures Handbook.

Remember, however, that the reprint quotient in the Complete X books has been quite high, as they are updates of older tomes to 3.5...

Yes, and the 'Geomancer' class appears to be a possible reprint from the Masters of the Wild tome (sorry Arivia, my post spent about 10 minutes in the memory buffer...).

Looking over the snippet though, the only things from the CD that interest me so far, appear to be the 'Spirit Shaman' class, and the 'Disciple of the Sun' feat. Actually, if I remember correctly, the 'Spirit Shaman' class could be the old 2e class kit of the same name from an old PS tome. I'll have to compare it, once we know more.

Maybe it's just the fact that we'd discussed such a thing a while back, but perhaps the Spirit Shaman is a spontaneous divine spellcaster?

The Favored Soul already covers that role.

Are we sure that the geomancer is "merely" a reprint?

In my opinion the class had a lot going for it, but could use some serious tweaking.

The Complete Warrior contained quite a few reprints... but also had a lot of new material. Most of the reprints were balanced (for better or for worse).

I'm not going to get worked up about it until I have it in my grubby hands. If it is as good as Complete Warrior, I'll be satisfied.

I've heard from other sources (both the WotC and EN World boards) that the 'Geomancer' will be a reprint yes...
