Hmm, the PrC that caught my eye was the Black Flame Zealot. Any more information on that, Sirius? |

Hmmmn . . . interesting, although looking over some of the PrCs I can't help but think that some of them sound a little redundant. I think we may be seeing the 'Well of Prestige Classes' starting to run dry.

Never! Ever will WotC continue to spray out useless material! It's only a matter of time before the PrC's become so useless that it has no connection to the Realms whatsoever. |

Without even looking at them, which gives away my interest in the product, I'm sure one or more of them came from a previously published items in 3.0 edition and now have simply been reworked to 3.5 edition.
Run out of Prestige Classes? I think you just spoke blasphemy to all the munch and crunchers out there Lady Kazandra.
Rest assured, if such a tragedy ever did occur for WOTC, I'm sure we'd see fourth edition come out in a matter of months. |

Well, at least they're making simpler ones, with just three or five levels. I rather like those, for some reason. Maybe they just take up less room. |

Well, if you recall, I was more than a bit irritated at how, in The Complete Warrior, the writers kept repeating information. Such as, in their examples, what "Elf Traits" are (just say "see the PHB for details! Don't keep repeating and wasting space!), what the class features did (you just said that!), etc, etc, sic ad nauseum.
I doubt they're changing it for The Complete Divine. |

Yes, that is rather sad...
However, I doubt I'll even be purchasing this tome, as my friend probably will, and he often leaves most of his D&D materials at my house... |

Same here, though my reason is because I don't think I'll be playing any divine classes any time soon. Unless, of course, Amazon offers another 60% off deal. |

Well, I normally get all my D&D sourcebooks from Barnes and Nobles. Suprisingly, unlike other B&N stores, they get almost every sourcebook on time, and in excellent condition. It took me quite a bit longer to acquire Van Richten's Guide to the Shadowfey, which I yelled at the store manager long and hard about... |

I'll be picking it up when it comes out. We have a good local gaming shop that has been around for 15+ years. She gets in all new releases on the Friday following release. I pay full retail there, but consider it worth the expense. I'm happy to do my part in keeping this shop open.

I've found some previews from the upcoming Complete Divine sourcebook.
There are two, the first of which is a look at the Pious Templar class, while the second preview is a number of feats from Above.

There seems to be a problem with those links, please use this one, and scroll down to the previews for Complete Divine.

Thank you for the "sneak-peeks," Lady Kazandra. This just further confirms what I just said, and I still don't think I'll buy the sourcebook. I'm just not a very pious person... |

I don't think I'll have that concern, unless of course the Sage doesn't buy a copy. Although, I believe most of the WotC products scheduled for release this year are on his pre-orders list, so I don't have to worry .

Pious Templar
Has . . . potential. But needs work. Not sure I like the "mettle" ability -- I mean, both Fortitude and Will saves? Sure, there are a lot more Reflex saves made for partial effects than not, but it still seems excessive.
Arcane Diciple
Surprisingly balanced. I might have to consider this feat if I ever make another wizard character with a high wisdom score.
Eagle's Wings
Almost pointless. Sure, you remain humanoid, and so can do things only possible in humanoid form, but I think most players with druid characters won't be considering this one.
Glorious Weapons
Well . . . maybe. I doubt it, though.
Reach Spell
Deja vu, anyone?
To be fair, as I was trying to be when reviewing The Complete Warrior, people coming in after the switch to 3.5e won't have the old lists of feats, not unless they pick up a copy of what would be "outdated" material. Still, it's hardly the sort of thing to put in a preview.
True Believer
This one's okay, even though I have the feeling that it was only made as a prerequisite for the Pious Templar. |

Since Complete Divine will soon be released next month, does anyone have any information on which class book is next?. I'd heard it was Complete Arcane, but I don't completely trust the source I received this information from.

I guess there's enough for a Complete Rogue . . . . But other than that, what else could there be? |

You could be right, although I think it is to be titled Complete Stealth, handling the shadier side of such classes as the Rogue, Ranger and Bard. |

I believe there may be one in 3e. However, if you look at the feat list, you'll see "Domain Spontineity." That sounds like a feat that allows a cleric to convert a normal spell into a domain spell, like it were a cure or inflict. |

If I recall, didn't they already make a product along those lines titled Song and Silence? |

Indeed . . .
But could not the same also be said of both Complete Warrior and Complete Divine, and their associate splatbooks, Sword and Fist and Defenders of the Faith?.
