Yeah I noticed, I do see it as a good idea to do the being who is flawless in mind and body.

Ok so my party is gonna have either a melee focused Magus or Bloodrager. A Healer of some sort, possibly a Warpriest for a mix of combat and healing. A newbie who we do not know what she will pick.

I am strongly tempted to do a psionic class and use feats to pick up armor and weapon profs and just go to town that way.

Grand Lodge

You'd have to run it by your GM, but it sounds reasonable. It's clearly the same ability as Smite Evil if you pick Evil as your opposed alignment.


Or if you can take a look at Occult Adventures...

There's an Enlightened Psychic that may do the trick.

I think your party would really appreciate the Shaman, then. That's a massive amount of utility and support for your martials.

Also, a note to the person who wants to play a "healer": the Warpriest is 100% not a good idea for them. Channeling energy is basically a trap because it competes with quickened casting, which is really the only Warpriest class feature that matters. If they want to heal, they want to be a Life Oracle, full stop.


I will inform them of the Oracle.

Of course last time she played a Life Oracle she nearly TPKed the party....


I don't recommend a full healer. Warpriest is great for healing and providing melee support. You need someone else to flank and to take some hits.


Ok. thanks for that info.

So I am tied between Shield Champion Brawler (Captain America) and Champion of Faith... which could be a Captain feel.

Two-Weapon Champion of the Faith. You've got zero issues with splitting ability scores, and Warpriest TWF is brutal even before you start smiting.

Human Warpriest gets so many damn bonus feats you could do something like weapon-and-fist TWF with Crane Style thrown in.

I love it.

Here's a potential featlist:

1. TWF, Double Slice
3. Power Attack
5. Combat Reflexes
6. Weapon Specialization
7. Divine Protection
9. Improved Two-Weapon Fighting + Improved Critical
11. Quicken Blessings
12. Two-Weapon Rend
13. Critical Focus
15. Greater Two-Weapon Fighting + Critical Versatility
17. Dazing Assault
18. Greater Weapon Focus
19. Skill Focus (Knowledge [History])

Perhaps Cayden Warpriest - rapier is automatically a sacred weapon, so...

1. Sacred Focus: Spiked Light Shield / TWF / +Improved Shield Bash
3. Double Slice
5. Amateur Swashbuckler: Opportune Parry and Riposte
6. +Warpriest: Improved TWF / (FCB): Power Attack
7. Metamagic: Toppling Spell
9. +Warpriest: Improved Critical / Divine Protection
11. Quicken Blessing
12. +Warpriest: Two-Weapon Rend / Empower Spell / (FCB): Shield Slam
13. Critical Focus
15. +Warpriest: Shield Master / Bashing Finish

Toppling Spell is in there to go with with Magical Lineage: Admonishing Ray for the absurd lols of having the damage bonuses of Divine Favor and Smite applied to each shot of Admonishing Ray, and the attack bonuses applied to the free trip that follows.

Empowered, Toppling Admonishing Ray w/ Divine Favor and Smite shall henceforth be known as the 'Non-Lethal Death Ray'(TM).


Very nice builds

I am considering it, I do like the Warpriest, it is one of the more fun classes to play I have done one who TWF with Kukris.

Dice Rolled

So I am stuck on which classes to play because I have a lot of character ideas going through my head.

One would be Brawler (Shield Champion) because if you cannot make Cap with those stats you cannot make him period.

One is Arcanist, mostly because this is as close as I will get to psionics and still be in 1st party territory I love their casting system and with good physicals I could potentially kick some butt but stay back.

I had the idea of making a Yoda-like small character who is a powerhouse in both melee and using spells. I know Arcanist gets that blade bound archetype but really that does not look all that good. Inquisitor for a yoda-like would be good too. Wis + Int to Knowledge rolls means I doubt I will ever miss a knowledge check.

Any suggestions on potential character ideas?

Fun fact: You're more likely to win a coin toss 6 times in a row followed by winning the Powerball on a single draw than you are to roll all 18s on a 4d6, drop lowest.

So, did you script it (how long did it take?) or just edit the picture?

I do not know how to write a script to save my life. And I have no photo editing software on my laptop, well I have paint but the most I use that for is resizing photos and selecting things to copy out.

Also it was 4d6, Drop the Lowest, Reroll 1s

Its much easier to do like I did, modify the html, its real easy just right click (in chrome) on a number and click Inspect Element, and change the numbers.

See my previous post in this thread with a character with all 20's.


Yeah still have no idea how to script. How do you modify html for a photo? I didn't know a photo had html.
