Entering Pathfinder / Arcane Savant from Cleric


Advice


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Hey guys. I just joined up with a really not-optimized playgroup that somehow accidentally became full of casters.
Truth be told, I really don't know where I'm going with this. We're starting at level 8 and I'm building a Cleric (well, Forgemaster) that's dipping two levels right away into Pathfinder Savant. Then I might go back to taking levels of Cleric for a bit. The party now is a Bloodrager, a Lore Oracle that really likes knowledge checks, and a Mystic Theurge blast/heal combo, so I expect to be in melee and I value survivability. I'm also intending to be the party's crafter.
Everything I've found so far is entering Savant from an arcane caster, so I'm looking for a decent list of spells that I should snag from maybe a wizard list. A mix of high and low would be good. Also, I have no idea whether or not I can get early access to spells on the Cleric list, so don't build your post entirely around that.
Also, my previous plan was a dip into Veiled Illusionist for Shadow Conjuration. I'm trying to decide if it's worth another feat to do both or if I should just take the level hit.
Anyway, let me know what you think.


If you value survivability, Mirror Image would be a classic. And at some point Greater Invisibility would be another.

Well, as much as I want Greater Angelic Aspect and can cast 4th level spells, that might get the early-access exploit banned at my table. Holy Sword will be incredible in two levels. Which of the Create Pit line should I grab?
