Let's see how the final group shakes out. The current charater and their strength as I can tell are.
zerodarkfire - Human Tetori Monk Grappler
Noral - KITSUNE Swashigator Skills melee
Grandlodge - Human Goliath Druid (still deciding Domain or Animal)
hustonj - Gnome Sorcerer Blaster
Jason Rodarte - Human Psychic Damage Enchanment
MrStr4ng3 - Fetchling Shadow Summoner
It is an odd group to be sure, but I don't think it has to change we will just have to be smart.
Goliath will be covering some divine support (healing removal etc from the druid list) as well as some control (casting and reach).
I and the group would shurly appreciate it, but I also like when people play what they like. So your call.
Maybe I read over this, but what type of play will it be? Voicechat? PbP?
Play by post, but you are also too late to sign up.
Recruitment is closed and yes we are at six, I will get the Gameplay thread up later, just gotta catch up some reading and other stuff.
With the group composition as we have it, do people have a preference for or against an animal companion?
Frontline is a druid, an investigator and maybe an eidolon. It seems more things to get hit will be a good thing.
While not an oracle, I made a melee cleric to help out with some divine casting while adding to our frontline.
The cleric looks great. Have you seen the blessed hammer feat? I feel like it maybe a great choice for the character.

That is entirely the point of the character, I just can't get the feat until 5th level. If not for that feat, I'd definitely be a forgemaster cleric instead since dwarves have that CHA penalty.
Tried to make an Ascetic mystery Oracle, but I couldn't find an ability score array that I liked, especially compared to a dwarf cleric with protection domain (good fort and will with both having racial boosts and a free cloak of resistance). Thought of doing a sacred fist warpriest too, but I liked the blessed hammer concept more for this game.
Nice.

I highly reccomend the new Beastmaster style from ultimate wilderness.
The best feat being Beastmaster Salvation that lets you use a handle animal check in place of your ACs saving throw, as those tend to be pretty bad.
They are not bad and saves are a bit of a concern but deficit for animal companions tends to be overstressed and three feats is a lot for a druid. Especially on cha dumped build whose handle animal will never be stellar.
Animal companions have 2 good saves that scale to 10. PCs for comparison scale to 12. They also get more stat increases to DEX then PCs do this makes there save scale better than some PCs like fighters. ACs also get evasion and eventually improved evasion.
There will is 1 behind a PC with low will equal at most levels and most have a positive wisdom score. I always take iron will and actually purchase equipment for my ACs (cloak). A mistake many people make is not doing this. You add to that devotion +4 and you're not in bad shape.
I also like to keep a dominate animal (3rd level spell) around to help regain control of an AC if needed. Though I do wish Suppress Charms and Compulsions was a druid spell.
Sharing an echoing rod with a wizard or bard to get heroism is also a great option.
