If anyone can help I would be thankful. I need to know about the Arcane Hierophant. Under weapon and armor Proficiency it mentions losing powers if you use a prohibited armor type or shield. But it never lists one. No where else does it mention this. I'm assuming it refers to a druids prohibited armor types and such but what happens if you don't have any prohibited armor type because you didn't enter it from a druid. (getting the trackless step another way, so that isn't an issue)

Arcane Hierophant
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: ... You abide by the same armor restrictions that a druid do, and you lose divine spellcasting and supernatural or spell-like class abilities if you wear prohibited armor or carry a prohibited shield.

So yeah, even if you weren't a druid, you gain druid armor restrictions. A reasonable house-rule might be that you only lose divine spellcasting levels gained from this class until you spend 24 hrs not wearing prohibited armor.

Ah missed that part. It's really annoying, shoots the whole idea in the foot. Stupid mystical vows that there was no reason to take.
