Is this a viable build and why hasn't anyone put up a build yet? I was thinking of TR my extra cleric since i made a fresh HO melee already but isn't completed yet.


Just a thought

I have been working on a Horc battlecleric Cleric 18 / fighter 2 TR but still not sure how to do the stats. I think the Horc makes a great battleclerics. I think Quickster? posted a 18 FvS 2 Fighter somewhere already.

Should be fine - build it just like it's a dwarf, but with less HP and more Str.

In my experience Clr18/Ftr2 melee/healer hybrid builds outDPS FvS20 melee-healer hybrid builds, but only by a small amount (mainly due to Haste Boost 1) and at a big cost to healing ability. I prefer the FvS20 builds overall, and the FvS class has no real synergy with the halforc race.

I have one TR'ed to lvl 10 already. It isnt cleric, it is FvS ( but the concept is basically the same) anyways. The build im working on is 18fvs/2monk. The 2 monk levels give you Power attack and Toughness for free + evasion and wis bonus to AC. Yes you retain wis bonus even when using a greataxe as long as your wearing robes. It will end up with 32 Wis/30 str with just enhancements +6 item and +2 tomes. I do damage on par with most melee types for the exception of pure Horc raging barbs, no point trying to out dps them.

it has some drawbacks, but they can be fixed with gear, but at level 10. I have a very high will save, reflex of around 16 and a decent fort of around 16 also. ( reflex and fort would be higher but im currently not wearing any +dex gear and only +2 con) 170 HP at lvl 10 with no HP bonuses on gear. a standing AC of around 38, self buffable to around 44. High wis = retaining good spell DC for Blade Barrier. ( Almost the only purpose of having this build as Str/Wis main )


Will end up with Maximize/Empower/Quicken/Extend/Power Attack/Toughness/Weap profiency Great Axes/ and 1 more feat ( probably improved critical slashing)

Drawbacks are low int/skill pts. low charisma. only 1 lvl 9 spell (as FvS) mediocre HP (Base of 12 con +2 tome +6 item for end game of only 20 con)

Can do the same build minus the spell DC with Max Str/Con and better dex. and just drop wis.

I just noticed the new beta of the character planner, which includes half-orcs, so here is the thf melee cleric i'm leveling at the moment:
