3.0 out of 5 stars The older book was better Nov 14 2002
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I am referring to the Complete Guide to Paladins for 2nd edtion. That book had far more material in greater depth than Defenders does. Again, this book also seems underdone, like so many 3rd edition books. The most useful material was the section describing how the faiths of specific alignments, and deities, work. As for the rest, it is "overbalanced". Most of the feats are so "balanced" as to be worthless, as are the prestige classes. The kits found in the Complete Guide are better, I think, with real balance, not +'s and -'s canceling each other out. The organizations listed were a little better, but again, the Guide had more interesting ones. Although I have focussed on Paladins, the same holds for priests. The Complete Guide to Priests wasn't that good, so I can't recommend looking for it. Overall, I wouldn't bother buying this again just four about 10 pages of useful material.

4.0 out of 5 stars My players hate this book, because it helped me so much
I'm sure the other reviews covered details of what the book contains. It's an accessory book for the 3rd edition D&D game, if you don't play D&D, why are you reading this... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Lots of filler
I own several of the new class guides (Sword and Fist, Song and Silence, and Defenders of the Faith). As a player, I find this one to be the least useful. Read more

This book had a lot of useful information on clerics but nothing too spectacular in the way of feats. Read more

This is a helpful book, but it has left me lacking. The character clases seem to favor good characters and clerics mostly. Read more

This book is just fine, it is not as good Tome and blood, but it is still fine. I must admit that one of the best classes existing in D&D is the cleric, and this book gives a... Read more
