Design Note: Oath of Glory Updates
[1] Here are the main updates in this subclass since Tasha's Cauldron of Everything:
- Inspiring Smite no longer requires a Bonus Action, and it now works with all the spells provided by the Paladin’s Smite feature.
- Peerless Athlete now lasts for 1 hour rather than 10 minutes.
- Aura of Alacrity now enhances Aura of Protection, which results in the feature’s range being greater than before.

- Rule Tip: Temporary Hit Points Don't Stack. If you have temporary hit points and receive more of them, you don’t add them together, unless a rule says you can. Instead, you decide which temporary hit points to keep.
