Talk:Divine soul

Split?
This article combines the 3.5 class of favored soul from "Complete Divine" with the 4th edition invoker class from the "Player's Handbook 2", which are similar in description but not in game mechanics. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 02:38, July 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * An evoker in 3rd edition was called an invoker in 2nd edition - completely different from the divine spellcaster here. How could this best be noted in the article? (Probably by some link to evoker, which itself is only a redirect so far?) Daranios (talk) 18:24, July 15, 2015 (UTC)


 * Do you think this should be two articles then? As far as I can tell, there are no FR invokers, but there is a canon favored soul dwarf living in Undermountain, according to Expedition to Undermountain. ~ Lhynard (talk) 05:05, December 20, 2018 (UTC)

Creating a New Sub-Section: References in Modern Popular Culture
Please, can you kindly update the new section with multiple examples and add well cited sources? 110.169.128.108 05:11, March 26, 2016 (UTC)

This is the only modern and main-stream reference I could find to Invokers: http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Invoker#Bio http://www.dota2.com/hero/Invoker/ http://www.playdota.com/heroes/invoker

This is the only popular culture reference to Invoker.

All other references are highly obscure, including Forgotten Realms, Magicka, and so forth.

Right here, the hero is literally titled "Invoker" and Warcraft 3/Dota is heavily derived from Dungeons and Dragons.

 * Thanks for your interest, but I'm afraid that it's really not relevant. "Invoke" is just a word meaning "to call upon", and "invoker" is a common, magical-sounding role. A great many RPGs and video games use it for a wide range of things. There's no real connection here. It's not even within the purpose of this wiki. — BadCatMan (talk) 06:31, March 26, 2016 (UTC)

I have to respectfully disagree, but I'll comply with your terms. Dota is heavily drawn from DnD sources - splits off to create it's own sub-genre. I will respect your wishes and make no further edits of this sort however. 110.169.128.108 06:54, March 26, 2016 (UTC)

Further Clarifiying
We need to further distinguish an Invoker from other spell casting classes.

 * What sourcebooks would you recommend? I don't know the class well enough but would love to see some more specificity. Ruf (talk) 01:18, October 2, 2018 (UTC)
