I'm working on a homebrew paladin oath and the aura I currently have on paper allows you and any friendly creature within the aura to treat a nat 1 on a skill check as if it were a 10 on the d20 (similar to rogue's reliable talent but not as crazy). I feel like it's a little lack-luster, though. I was considering expanding it to include attack rolls and saving throws but I'm worried completely negating nat 1s on all d20 rolls for a character and nearby allies might be over the top. Considering starting with ability checks at 7th level and boosting it to all rolls at 18th level. Would pairing that boost with expanding the aura to 30 feet be too much?
DDB brain trust, please lend me your thoughts and/or ideas!
Attack rolls and saving throws is probably too much. It may be fine as is, depending on the power level of the rest of the class. Or make it effect values less than (some number higher than 1), like if they roll less than your proficiency bonus.
