Undead Hunter (Paladin Kit)

A holy avenger who has honed his abilities toward the destruction of the undead and other unnatural creatures, and is immune to many of their more devastating abilities.

Advantages

  • +3 to-hit and +3 damage against undead creatures.
  • Immune to hold and level drain.

Disadvantages

  • May not use Lay on Hands ability.

When to pick it

  • Excellent specialist for undead-heavy chapters (early-game crypts and later vampire encounters).
  • Immunity to level drain alone is a major safety net against shadows, wights, and vampires.
