    Agreed...not sure I like dwarf either. That pretty much leaves you with the Host and Silver Flame for FvS weapons (Long Bow & Sword)...kind missing out on the best part of the class.

    With a 8 STR and 14 Dex the build doesnt seem to be too concerend with melee.

    WHy does a toon that snever going to be in the thick of things need a super high Balance and 500+ Hit Points?

    Seems like an aweful lot to give up for the ability to Use a Reconstruct scroll at Level 20.

    Especially since you can already use Heal scrolls on warforged.

    Cursed? Drink a pot like a fleshy if you dont have an arcane babysitter.

    The build seems Confused to me.....

    What exactly is the 14 dex for? A Couple more points of Reflex save?

    That was my point.

    A Healing specced RUn away from danger type character really doesnt benefit from High Hit points and Evasion.

    Very durable healer. But not versatile. You can heal good 24/7, but thats it. No spells with DC (low Wisdom), can't fight good (low Str, weak weapon, not using racial weapon), cant do traps/locks.

    Durable yes, versatile no. I'd go FvS18/Monk2 for even more durability. At one point, Heal spell heals WF for more then Reconstruct scroll anyway. Most WFs even have a rank or two in Healer friend, so they are not that hard to heal. Plus from time to time a Wizard/Sorc or Bard also helps. And with your maxed Cha, you can have UMD 39 even without max ranks in UMD.

    Yeah I know low wisdom, but I wanted to pick either high spell pts or high DC, I figured with energy drain as a spell hitting them for many negative levels without saves, then instant kill spell dc's won't matter as much since they're drained anyway. And I am not planning on meleeing at all, just "clericing". I had a toss up between 2 rog or 2 monk as the splash. If I went with 2 monk I gain 4 more to all my saves plus 45 hps, but with rogue splash I have the UMD. Still debating, any more input?

    It works, but it also burns mana. So maybe your mana pool will not be that high. It also burns time. Sometimes it's important to elimited a specific monster fast or people get hurt. And then you need to heal and thats also less mana.

    I don't see how my UMD would end up a 39 without any pts into it lol...

    I'm looking for max spell points, not too worried about carrying 10 full plates around. I have two cleric/monks with dumped strength and not too big of an issue if I eat a +2 str tome and can squeeze in an STR item somewhere, any more input?

    well, as your a dwarf (as i just noticed) you payed 4 buildpoints to raise from 12 to 14 to get a freaking 29sp at cap (maybe even less, as you are multiclassed)
    in that case its even more useful to take mental toughness as feat as that gives alot more sp
