The time has come for me to build my new character and since I'll most likely be playing this character for a while I would like some advice on the best way to pull this off. I won't bore you with the story reasons for my odd Race/Class combination and while this is combination is already an optimizers wet dream I'm still not sure what the best way to run this character is so any and all input on this is appreciated.
The character I'm making is a level 4 Android Occultist (Necroccultist) Mythic Tier 2. Ideally I would like this character to be decent in melee while still being able to capitalize on the fact that Necroccultists get the DC to their necromancy spells and powers increased at later levels.
The campaign is 25 point buy. We're also using the standard wealth by level for characters starting off (6000 gp in this case). After character creation however, wealth will most likely sky rocket. I have another character in the same campaign who is also level 4 and has 13,000 worth of gold.
The only restrictions on the build is that it must be the Race, class and archetype combination provided and must have the Legendary Item Universal Path ability.
Finally there are a few houserules that will likely affect the build:
- Unless/Until Paizo releases a mythic path for Psychic Casters, everything that works for Arcane Casters from the Archmage path such as Wild Arcana also functions for Psychic Casters.
- Every character has the option to use half of certain stats instead of charisma for Bluff, Diplomacy and Intimidate. Bluff can use half your Intelligence, Diplomacy can use half of your Wisdom and Intimidate can use half of your Strength. Between this and the Pragmatic Activator Trait, you can pretty much dump Charisma to be honest.
- We're using the Background skills optional rules from Pathfinder Unchained. The only difference is that we get 3 skill points per level for background skills instead of 2.
Apologies for the wall of text. Any help I could get with this would be appreciated. Feel free to post anything from a full build to general advice!
Too late to edit it now so I'll post it here. When I said the character must have the Legendary Item Universal Path Ability, it has to be a weapon specifically.
Does anyone have any advice for this?
Can an emotionless android cast psychic spells with an emotion component?
Yes, you need to take the metamagic feat Logical Spell or the android can gain emotions by taking the feat Empathy if they have a cha of 13+.
