cleric build thrash out

[MrLarone]

so altitis strikes again and i rolled a new toon last night.

was past 12 so i didn't give it too much thought and threw together a cleric.

ran straight in to elite waterworks and had a blast, so i'm keeping her =) any toon that can take 3 incaps and recover each time works for me.

so, basically here's what i did and just looking for some comments on where to steer her (i'm being lazy i know)

vet 32pts

race:
Dwarf

stats:
str, dex, con, int, wis, cha
16 8 16 8 18 6

lvl up's into wis.

feats:
empower healing
heighten

skill:
all points have gone into diplomacy. !!!ALL FUTURE POINTS WILL GO IN TO CONCENTRATE!!!

notes, reasoning and current thinking:

heighten was taken as i love soundburst, though once i started i realised it was probably a little early to take this.

one idea thing i was thinking was adding 1/3 lvls of monk for stunning fist as i'll have a decent wis score, possible taking zen archery as well for mob debuffing.

considering lvl's are going into wis, would it be worthwhile taking precision to increase to-hit for my stuns?
which would be better 0, 1 or 3 lvls. i'm thinking 0 to get clr cap, 1 for stunning fist and 3 for aligning the heavens being the main perks of each possibility (oh and either 1 or 3 lvls would add my wis to my ac...)

obviously i'd like radiant servant too.

the playstyle i'm looking to achieve here is one of sit back and control/support the battle.

thoughts?

oh! and is my cha too low?? =p

... hmm dumping concentrate may need to change

Cut out all the other words around , this is still true . Dont dump concentrate .

If you want to play the control role also would be good idea not to splash , as it will effect your caster level .

I would also not dump con so hard , maybe 12- 14 strength would be sufficent if you plan to sit back and not get involved in melee

but i only get 1 skill point a lvl and i really really really want a decent diplo score *pouts*...

good point, just looking through the spell list now...

i've dumped con!!!?? all my other toons just scrape 400 at end game and i've never felt squishy. that's a starting con of 14 and i thought i was being generous here =p

Diplo is quite possibly the least important skill in this game. It's right up there with swim lol!

oh, don't think i've not been drooling over Iwinbyrollup's lifeguard bulid, i just didn't want to get lost in the 1000's of copy builds people are now levelling ;-)

ok, accpeted, concentrate has got to rise =(

i think i've got a +2 int tome lying around... worth consuming to get more points for diplo??? *eager expression*

[jwdaniels]

More skillpoints are just a few levels and a +2 tome away...

[MrLarone]

kl,

so what about adding some monk?

***edit***

done some research:

stunning blow, i'll have the wis bonus but not the monk levels, so doubt i'll get it useful at end game. - requirement dropped

wis mod to ac - i know ac should never really be a requirement but it's still nice to see, need to really do the math on whether it's better committing to cloth and ki weapons (no shield) or full plate and shields (which iirc can have devotion etc on them) - TBD

zen archery, again iirc i've seen a bow with devotion so this may compensate for dropping the metal as my AC... oh and i can gain proficiency from the silverflame enhancement, which is nice.
