'''{{Anchor|Surge of Confusion}} {{Su}}:''' As part of an attack action, a surge fighter of 7th level or higher may spend at least 1 [[#surge points|surge point]] to attempt to scramble his foe's nervous system a bit. If his attack hits, the target must succeed on a Will save (DC = 10 + ½ surge fighter's class level or # of [[#surge points|surge points]] spent, whichever is higher + surge fighter's main attack roll modifier) or become [[SRD:Confusion|''confused'']], as the spell, for 1 round per spent surge point. The total number of [[#surge points|surge points]] spent on a single attack action cannot exceed the surge fighter's class level, and all surges must be declared and surge points applied before the attack roll is made.
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Dimensional Anchoring}} {{Su}}:''' As a standard action, a surge fighter of 7th level or higher can spend [[#surge points|surge points]] on a single melee or ranged attack. If this attack beats its target's touch AC, the target is placed under the effect of a [[SRD:Dimensional Anchor|''dimensional anchor'']] for 2 rounds per surge point spent. The target is entitled to a [[Will ]] save (DC = 10 + ½ surge fighter's class level or # of [[#surge points|surge points]] spent, whichever is higher + surge fighter's main attack roll modifier) to halve the duration of the ''dimensional anchor''. This is not an attack action, and so cannot be enhanced by [[#Surge of Accuracy|Surge of Accuracy]], [[#Surge of Power|Surge of Power]], etc.
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Resilience}} {{Ex}}:''' As a swift action, a surge fighter of 7th level or higher can spend [[#surge points|surge points]] to gain [[SRD:Damage Reduction|DR ]] 10/— per surge point spent for 1 round.
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Far Sight}} {{Sp}}:''' As a full-round action, a surge fighter of 7th level or higher can spend [[#surge points|surge points]] to imitate [[SRD:Scrying|''scrying'']], as the spell. The [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] is equivalent to the number of surge points spent.
 
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Transformation {{Sp}}:''' As a standard action, a surge fighter of 7th level or higher can spend [[#surge points|surge points]] to change his form, as the [[SRD:Polymorph|''polymorph'']] spell, for 1 round per spent surge point. He gains the abilities and qualities of his new form as normal for ''polymorph'', but loses the use of his [[#Combat Surge|combat surges]] unless his new form would also be capable of taking levels in the surge fighter class (which generally requires a humanoid body shape).
 
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Invisibility}} {{Sp}}:''' As a standard action, a surge fighter of 9th level or higher can spend [[#surge points|surge points]] to become invisible, as the [[SRD:Greater Invisibility|''greater invisibility'']] spell, for 1 round per spent surge point. He does not become visible again when he attacks.
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Healing}} {{Su}}:''' As a standard action, a surge fighter of 13th level or higher can spend [[#surge points|surge points]] to regain 1d8 hit points per spent surge point.
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Death}} {{Su}}:''' As part of an attack action, a surge fighter of 13th level or higher can spend at least 10 surge points to try to strike his target dead. If he hits, the target must make a [[Fortitude ]] save (DC = 10 + (½ surge fighter's class level) or (# of [[#surge points|surge points]] spent −10), whichever is higher + surge fighter's main attack roll modifier) or die instantly. This is a [Death] effect. The total number of [[#surge points|surge points]] spent on a single attack action cannot exceed the surge fighter's class level, and all surges must be declared and surge points applied before the attack roll is made.
'''{{Anchor|Surge of Reality}} {{Su}}:''' From 17th level onward, a surge fighter can spend 10 [[#surge points|surge points]] and 50 XP as an immediate action to instantly negate any [[SRD:Wish|''wish'']], [[SRD:Miracle|''miracle'']], [[SRD:Limited Wish|''limited wish'']], or [[Minor Miracle (3.5e Spell)|''minor miracle'']] within Long Range just as it's being cast, preventing it from having any effect. Spent XP is not refunded; the spell is wasted to no effect. The surge fighter must succeed on a [[SRD:Spellcraft Skill|Spellcraft]] check to detect the ''wish'', ''miracle'', ''limited wish'', or ''minor miracle'' while it's still in progress; otherwise, by the time he realizes what the enemy spellcaster did, it's too late to even attempt to undo the alterations to reality. Other than that minor hurdle, this is a great tool for making wizards (and sorcerers and clerics) cry.

'''Other Classes:''' <-How this class typically interacts with other classes and how characters of this class interact with characters of other classes->.
'''Combat:''' <-Typical role Like regular fighters, surge fighters do battle according to their specializations. They cannot specialize in a combat->style as well as a fighter due to their smaller number of feats, but their surges can give them an edge as long as they don't have to do battle for too long or too frequently. Fighters tend to outperform surge fighters in prolonged or repeated combat, as surge fighters only have so many [[#surge points|surge points]] to work with.
'''Advancement:''' <-Typical advancement options for characters with this class. Include desirable multiclass options->.
