I may have missed this but do you guys know if Paladins are going to get support for Oathbreakers or Oath of Treachery? Seems like only real 'evil' based class so far is Warlock? Has there been any talk for class/kits like this further down the line?

Only Oath of devotion, Vengeance and ancients confirmed so far.

There are very few subclasses or races tied to a particular alignment. You can play lawful good Celestial warlocks or a chaotic good necromancer and an Lawful evil Circle of Spores druid. You can also play easily a nasty character as a paladin with the Oath of Conquest, Crown or Vengeance.

Yeah that all sounds good! I'm not complaining - I know Larian has a literal mountain of content so it's a bit privileged of me to just start asking for sub-class's haha laugh

I guess my core class fantasy has always been Death knight/Blackguard so I was wondering if there was any news for that - but who knows maybe down the line they might add it!

I love Blackguards so much. I too hope they will be a class option.

Once we get paladins (yay!) in the full game, makes sense they would add OB as a class option.

You can always try pathfinder. I think the antipaladin will be in WoTR till BG3 is out.

Before Warlocks came out Blackgaurds were the next best thing for me. Dark magic and I look like Sauron? Awesome combination. Thankfully Warlocks can satisfy my infernal needs. Oathbreakers are equally interesting as well.

I will have you know Mr Paladin that I serve the Nine Hells of Baator and therefore I am a Lawful being.

Lawful thine lords may be, dark one - but it is the motives behind their ever-burning fires that give me pause. Adherence to code and certain ends never justify such means.

Saving the universe by fighting the Demons in the never ending Blood War? Yes, truly I am a reprehensible being.

And will ultimate victory for devil-kind bring salvation? Nay, far better I say to look for it instead in redemption, the path to which should be open to all. Compassion for one’s foe, hope and inspiration - not the threat of damnation - these strike truer than any blade.

Yet I fear such words never reach your masters’ ears...
