That's probably it for new classes in Eberron.

I'll take a poll. Who wants the "(s)", speak up; who wants the second chart, speak down (I'm a punster, sue me :D ).

I have builds, build-abilities, roles, secondary roles, key class feature (that determines the build, in most cases), and I also have another chart that compares them to races. If you want, I can upload that information here.

May 24, 2009 9:24:15 		What if we posted a big chart of all the class builds released, with their roles, ability score focuses, and secondary roles, in power sources too?

Just a thought.

Here's the excell file, on Uploading.com:

http://uploading.com/files/MM1S9A4P/Class Builds, v2.xls.html

It includes all the current class builds, plus a "Mixed Wizard" which is simply my place for dumping the Staff of Defence and the Tome of Readiness because they don't have an associated build, and orders them by role, power source, ability scores, and gives their HP and Healing Surge values, as well as the suggested skills for the builds. The Secondary Roles are based off of the article in Dragon and when they were called out in the books themselves. Artificer only has one build because it's not June yet. Monk same - only one build until next year.

EDIT: I did not include the sourcebooks in the excell sheet. It should be pretty obvious, and all are covered in the Power Books. I may update the file.

EDIT 2: New upload file - includes requested Source Book for each class build:

May 24, 2009 14:10:15 		Woops... I went a bit too fast there, and switch the Two-Blade and Beastmaster books because the Two-Blade was on the bottom... silly me.

Here's a fix:
