Forgot my End-Build again...

[FranOhmsford]

Keltenn Kaltenson {Human}
1st Life: HotD Paladin
2nd Life: Paladin/Clr/Ftr 12/7/1
3rd Life: Cleric 14 / Paladin 6
4th Life: Cleric 7 / Warlock 6 / Ftr 3


When I TRd Keltenn for the 3rd time I had a plan.

Now part of that plan was to get another Cleric Past Life, this time while making use of Enlightened Auras/Bursts + Stalwart Defense.
AND
A PDK past life + doing some destiny farming.

I have absolutely zero AP in Cleric - ES+TS+SD is taking up every last point I have at Lvl 16 - I may go for Radiant Burst at some point, I may not.

Pretty sure 8/6/6 and 9/6/5 don't make sense BUT

Was I going:
11 Cleric / 6 Warlock / 3 Ftr?
or
10 Cleric / 6 Warlock / 4 Ftr?

[Enoach]

The main difference between 11/6/3 and 10/6/4 is

11/6/3 - Level 6 Cleric Spells

10/6/4 - One Fighter Feat

Now the 11 levels of cleric will be 16 Levels using a Divine ED while the 10 levels of cleric will only be 15 Levels. This may be important for Aura/Bursts and other abilities that are based on the number of Cleric Levels in your build.

Lvl 4 Fighter also gets access to Swift Defense.

So my question is really - Does Swift Defense + A Fighter Feat beat Heal or Blade Barrier + Cure Mod Mass for this Build?


You may need more info to answer that so...

Feats taken so far:
Empower
Force of Personality
Spell Focus: Evoc
Gtr Spell Focus: Evoc
Imp. Crit: Slashing
Maximise
Shield Mastery {Yes I know I need an ASF 10% item or Augment}
Toughness
Wpn Focus: Slashing {Might actually go to Fred and drop this for Improved Shield Mastery}.


Enhancements so far
ES 39ap {Basically everything useful except Brilliance, Displacement, Stat Boosts and obviously Cores 4+}
TS 12ap {Core 1, Utterdark Blast, Chain Shape, 2x Strong Pact, 3x Feigned Health}
SD 6ap {Stalwart Defense}
PDK 3ap {Cormyrian Knight Training}

It would cost me 13ap to get Radiant Burst or 15ap to get Swift Defense - I can't get both.

Fran,
Just go 11 cleric and get it over with...
At least you can say you were able to cast heal.

Based on assumptions from the level split you are currently

10/6/3 Cleric/Warlock/Fighter
You have Zero AP to spend

Taking Level 20 you will have 4 to 8 AP to Spend (Depends on if you have spent the AP from 19 to 20)

So the question is do you have enough AP to do either?

I'm 7/6/3 right now - Lvl 16 and Rank 79.

I have spent 60ap in total so far.

So you have 20 left to spend. So based on where you are now what do you see matching the playstyle you are after? The Feat + Swift Defense or the ability to cast Heal and additional Cleric Levels for Aura/Burst calculations?

We can't read your mind...

Just browsing the Cleric Forums, trying to learn Healer!
Would just like to add some input, of my 'similar' build.
Hope it helps!

I'm currently running a 14 FVS/9 Warlock/1 Cleric.
For the FVS/Sun Elf past lives.
I'm sure you could build off it.

Cleric at 1 (Sun Elf)
Warlock 2-10 (9 total, rush all enhancements)
11-20 FVS (For past live, also some light spell power)

Following the starting of THIS post.
Adding FVS enhancements, in place of the TS.
Some feat changing was required.
