Need a new PC! Help!

RPG Superstar 2012 Top 32

My half-orc inquisitor 3 of Desna fed an owlbear.

Now I need a new PC.

We have a fighter (dueling sword) and Dark Tapestries oracle. Sometimes we have a psion, and we can and often hire player-controlled NPC meatshields.

I'm considering a paladin, a fire cleric, and an alchemist. We need lots of healing and some area effect damage. I don't really like arcane casters. Will consider a half-orc scarred witch doctor.

15 point buy, 3rd level, standard wealth by level, 2 traits.

Houserules is no AoOs, 20s autocrit, and if you can explain it, it trumps skill checks.


What books are allowed?

What races are allowed?


Paladin - party can adventure long time each day.

Alchemist - bomb throwing without AoOs is awesomesauce squared

Scarred Witch Doctor - so fun, so fun, so fun

I'm leaning towards elf archer alchemist or bludgeoner/enforcer paladin.

Any official paizo stuff is allowed, and anything from the pfsrd site.

Are ACG Playtest classes available?

Have a crazy thought, if it's allowed in the tech of the campaign: You could try a gunslinger. Good ranged combatant especially if you have 'meatshields'. IF you're concerned about healing, you could try that cleric you mentioned.


Oracle of life with lots and lots of summon monster spells and relevant feats.
Best healing around and the right summoned tool for any job.


A chirurgeon alchemist with spontaneous healing would fit your description well. You can give your healing extracts to others, heal your self via spont healing and you can deal area damage via bombs.


A pistolero gunslinger Will love the no AoE rule. So would a magus or a oracle of battle or a scout rogue. If you need tons of healing i suggest looking in to the evangalist cleric. That Will give you some buff to lessen the need for healing and also give you powerfull spells.

Just remembered Versatile Channeling. That could be an interesting blast...

I made a human paladin 3.
14, 13, 12, 10, 10, 16.
Fey Foundling, Power Attack, Extra Lay on Hands.
Max Diplomacy, 1 rank in Handle Animal, Heal, Know noble, Know rel, Ride, Sense Motive. Might switch Handle Animal for Profession librarian for some Pathfinder flavor.

I took Magical Knack (paladin) so I will have CL 3 at 4th level when I finally get spell. I'm thinking of Altruistic Diplomat (+2 Diplomacy) or Group Fighting (+3 when flanking).

Gonna go sword & board. The party found a +2 longsword they plan on giving me... Yeah, yeah it's meta-gaming. I don't care. :-P

I'm going to make an elf alchemist archer, a cleric, and a scarred witch doctor blaster/healer. And see what I like best.

EDIT: Might go Irrepressible to add Wisdom to Will Saves vs. charm and complusions.


I like Extremely Fashionable for +1 Diplo/Intimidate and Intimidate as a class skill.

Maybe for my 20 or 25 point build Half-elf Paladin dual-wielding warhammer and shield and using Bludgeoning and Enforcer and Skill Focus Intimidate.

I kind of want to make a Mjolnir-wielding, Iron Patriot-suit wearing, Captain America's Shield-using guy one of these days.
