Change Overview

EFU has an entirely custom Turn Undead system based on the primary domain of a Cleric. When a PC initiates the use of Turn Undead, one effect out of three possible ones based on the primary domain of the Cleric will randomly take place.

Multiclassed characters have a chance of failure when attempting a Turn Undead if they have more non-divine class levels than divine class levels. Upon failure, the incantation of Turn Undead will simply do nothing and the charge will be depleted. Druids do not have the Turn Undead as a class feature and, although arguably a divine class, do not count as divine for the purpose of Turn Undead.

The chance of success is equal to the character's divine levels divided by non-divine levels, rounded up to the nearest percentage, up to a natural maximum of 100%. Examples of such include:

2 Cleric, 4 Druid = 50%
3 Cleric, 4 Fighter = 3/4 = 75%
1 Cleric, 8 Rogue = 1/8 = 12.5% rounded to 13%
4 Cleric, 4 Wizard = 4/4 = 100%
2 Cleric, 1 Fighter = 2/1 = 100%
3 Cleric, 2 Paladin, 3 Fighter = (3+2)/3 = 5/3 = 100%
2 Cleric, 1 Paladin, 4 Fighter = (2+1)/4 = 3/4 = 75%

The new Turn Undead effects do not include and ignore the regular Turn Undead effect entirely, unless otherwise specified, regardless of whatever bonuses the Cleric's domain listed in unmodified Neverwinter Nights (for example, Turning Undead, Destruction Domain turning Constructs, Air Domain turning elementals, etc).

If a characters has at least four levels in the Cleric class and at least 14 Charisma, they are able to directly select their Turn Undead instead of invoking a random effect.

Any Paladin without Cleric levels will always use the Turn Undead of default Neverwinter Nights.
