    Default Can somebody help

    Hi my character is a half-elf Cleric / fighter 3/1 and I tried to follow a build set that didnt mention them and I've gone a bit wrong and want to know if its salvageable by taking toughness at lev 6 or at all.

    Str 16
    Dex 10
    Con 16
    Int 08
    Wis 18
    Chr 08

    Skills

    Balance 2 2 0 0
    Concentration 5.5 2.5 3 0

    Feats

    Power Attack
    2 Handed Fighting
    Zen Archery (couldn't find anything better to take as wouldnt give me toughness) took Fighter at lev 4

    Enchantments

    Follower of Sovereign Host
    Fighter Critical Accuracy 1
    Human Improved recovery 1
    Human Versatility 2
    Improved Heal
    Cleric Life Magic 1
    Cleric Wisdom 1

    HP 66
    SP 228

    The build I tried to follow is

    Warpriest of Siberys (L19 Cleric/L1 Fighter)

    Concept: Cleric who is able to contribute to melee damage, while remaining a decent healer and offensive spellcaster
    Original path's flaws: Going sword and board (which is not a long term viable way to contribute in melee), giving up too much offensive spellcasting (some level-up points in Str, no Maximize), and no Toughness
    Main fixes: Going two-handed fighting for higher damage output (splashing Fighter for proficiencies and an extra feat), with more HPs and better offensive spellcasting abilities

    Multi-class progression <- click for more info: Create your character as a Cleric, then take your second level as Fighter, then levels 3 to 20 as Cleric
    Alignment: Chaotic Neutral, Chaotic Good, Neutral, Neutral Good, Lawful Neutral, Lawful Good

    Stats and Race (28/32 pt):
    ........Drow.....Dwarf......Elf.....Halfling...Hum an...Warforged.
    .Str.....16........16........16........14........1 6........16....
    .Dex.....10........8.........10........10........1 0........8.....
    .Con.....13......16/18.....12/14.....14/16.....14/16.....16/18...
    .Int.....10........10........10........10........8 .........10....
    .Wis.....16........16........16........16........1 6........14....
    .Cha.....10........6.........8.........8.........8 .........6.....

    Ability increase every 4 levels: All in Wis.

    Skills: At character creation, max out Concentration, get one rank in Tumble and spend the rest into Balance. On further levels spend your two skill points in Concentration and Balance.

    Feats (by level), except Human: Toughness (1), Power Attack (2), Extend (3), Empower Healing (6), Maximize (9), Improved Critical: Slash (12), Quicken (15), Two-Handed Fighting (18)
    Feats (by level), Human: Toughness (1), Extend (1), Power Attack (2), Empower Healing (3), Maximize (6), Quicken (9), Improved Critical: Slash (12), Two-Handed Fighting (15), Spell Penetration (18)
    Special note: The feat progresion for all races was modified on 2010/10/06 to be able to pick the Radiant Servant enhancement line earlier. If you started this build prior to this date, you can find the old feat progression to follow in this post.

    For more information about picking enhancements please read this post.
    Enhancements (Cleric): Divine Vitality I, Energy of the Zealot I, Follower of the Sovereign Host, Heal II, Improved Spell Penetration I, Improved Turning I, Life Magic III, Prayer of Incredible Life II, Prayer of Life II, Radiant Servant II, Unyielding Sovereignty, Wand and Scroll Mastery II, Wisdom II

    I guess what you are saying is that you thought you can take Toughness as your fighter feat and now you realized you can't. Of course you can still take Toughness at level 6. But you basically wasted your fighter feat then (Zen archery is not that great on your build).

    So what you can do is to swap two feats by talking to Fred and give him some nice (and expensive) donations. So you could for example swap Power Attack to Toughness and swap Zen Archery to Power Attack. But I would not recommend to do two feat swaps on a level 4 (?) toon.

    I would just reroll this toon and start again, level 4 can be reached in a few hours of gametime (just do a couple of solo runs in good xp/time quests like "Info is the key" and "Kobolds new Ringleader" or "Recovering the lost tome").

    Cheers

    Either rerol or take it at six. This isactually the best solution then you can take THF as the fighter feat and toughness as your other feat.

    Also, there is a quest near the CHurchwarden (the AH guy in the marketplace) It itakes two minutes and you can get a free feat exchange. REMEMBER: you can only do that quest once per character.

    I'd drop zen archery, definitaly.

    Agree about re-rolling, and one thing I would consider is dropping CON to 14 and bumping CHR to 10 (just a personal preference). Half-Elf is a great race for a Cleric, but didn't see what Dilettante feat you took. If you're adding a Fighter level, then you probably don't want to take the Fighter Dilettante, may want something like Rogue or Barbarian for the DR Enchancements.

    Good luck!
