Well, I have a thing for Ancient Greek history. As well I rather enjoy the more martial classes, completely understanding how subpar they all are. I’m trying to do a revamping of v3.5 that is a kind of blend of these two aspects. I tried to revamp the Fighter, coming up with the Soldier class (which I am still surprised Wizards hasn’t made, seems like a fairly obvious name for a class to me. So that done, I tried to make the Monk better and with the Greek flavor. So I created The Pankratiast class. My goal is to make this a tier 3 class.
Pankratiasts were practitioners of one of the oldest martial arts, in legend it was created by the heroes Herakles and Theseus and used in their battles against monsters. There is also a popular claim with some evidence that the art of pankration was spread through the conquests of Alexander the Great through India eventually making its way through cultural diffusion to China, Japan, ect. where it greatly influenced their forms of martial arts.
That said, pankration is considered one of the most brutal martial arts, and I tried to emphasize that aspect in the class as opposed to the whirling dervishes of the monks. The class itself still suffers from some of the weaknesses of the Monk, but hopefully the additions I have added will make the Pancratiast stronger and a more useful class.
Some of the changes I decided upon was that unlike the Monk’s “flurry of misses” the Pankratiast would be a more focused combatant. While having only a middle attack bonus, class features like Focused Attack actually give the Pankratiast a higher attack bonus, with fewer attacks than fighters, barbarians, and rangers.
Some of the abilities of the Monk have not been taken out or replaced, such as Evasion, AC Bonus, ect. Though the greatest change has been the addition of the Maneuver Training abilities that were partially based on the few pankratiast techniques I know and partially bastardized versions of some spells, giving them a more martial flavor.
That said, how’s the class look?

Unarmed Strike: At 1st level, a pankratiast gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. A pankratiast’s attacks may be with either fist interchangeably or even from elbows, knees, and feet. This means that a pankratiast may even make unarmed strikes with her hands full. There is no such thing as an off-hand attack for a pankratiast striking unarmed. A pankratiast may thus apply her full Strength bonus on damage rolls for all her unarmed strikes.
Usually a pankratiast’s unarmed strikes deal lethal damage, but she can choose to deal nonlethal damage instead with no penalty on her attack roll. She has the same choice to deal lethal or nonlethal damage while grappling.
A pankratiast’s unarmed strike is treated both as a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.
The damage a pankratiast can do with unarmed damage increases with levels. At level 1 a pankratiast can deal 1d6 damage with an unarmed attack. This increases to 1d8 at 4th level, 1d10 at 8th level, 2d6 at 12th level, 2d8 at 16th, and 2d10 at 20th.

Dimming Strike: As a standard action a pankratiast may make an attack against an opponent. If the attack succeeds the opponent must make a Fortitude Save against a DC 10+1/2 the characters pankratiast levels +the pankratiasts Wisdom Modifier.

Please, meticulously point out everything I did wrong.
Pankratiasts were practitioners of one of the oldest martial arts, in legend it was created by the heroes Herakles and Theseus and used in their battles against monsters. There is also a popular claim with some evidence that the art of pankration was spread through the conquests of Alexander the Great through India eventually making its way through cultural diffusion to China, Japan, ect. where it greatly influenced their forms of martial arts.
That said, pankration is considered one of the most brutal martial arts, and I tried to emphasize that aspect in the class as opposed to the whirling dervishes of the monks. The class itself still suffers from some of the weaknesses of the Monk, but hopefully the additions I have added will make the Pancratiast stronger and a more useful class.
Some of the changes I decided upon was that unlike the Monk’s “flurry of misses” the Pankratiast would be a more focused combatant. While having only a middle attack bonus, class features like Focused Attack actually give the Pankratiast a higher attack bonus, with fewer attacks than fighters, barbarians, and rangers.
Some of the abilities of the Monk have not been taken out or replaced, such as Evasion, AC Bonus, ect. Though the greatest change has been the addition of the Maneuver Training abilities that were partially based on the few pankratiast techniques I know and partially bastardized versions of some spells, giving them a more martial flavor.
That said, how’s the class look?
