I need help with suggestions for my Arcane Bloodrager’s feats. I’m new at pathfinder.

I’ve played this character for three sessions and really love him. Originally, when creating him and having some helpful input from this forum, I was thinking about following the cleave feat line. But after 15 hours of game play I’m finding that I’m never able to use cleave and don’t want to waste a bunch of feat slots on something I’ll never use.

Also I was considering going the Beast totem route, but I hate losing my 4th level Arcane Blooline powers especially Blur and Protection from arrows to get lesser beast totem and some stupid claws that I’ll never use. I mean I won’t get the payoff until 12th level when I get greater beast totem and get pounce. I’d like people to weigh in and let me know if it is worth it.

Here are my stats:
St 18, Dex 13, Con 14, Int 10, Wis 12, Cha 14

I’m using a Greatsword

Here are my specific questions: I want to put out a lot of damage. Would there be anything that would be better than Lvl 1 Cleave, Lvl 3 Cleaving Finish, Lvl 5 Greater Cleave, Lvl 7 Improve Cleave finish. For some of the low level feats I’m having a hard time finding replacement. Would love suggestions.

Is swapping out my 4th level Bloodline powers to start the beast totem rage line worth it?

I really like the idea or cornugon smash and hurtful. Or if you have any other Intimidation builds that may be interesting.

Or any other feat suggestions in general, please suggest. I’m new to all these feats.

I’ve only turned 2nd level and I can switch anything out. Here is what I have so far:

Lvl1 Power Attack, Bonus Human Feat: Cleave (??? Should I keep or change), Dropped Bloodline power Disruptive for Arcane Familiar (sage Familiar and get +4 Initiative)

Lvl2

Lvl3 Advancement Feat -- Cleaving Finish (Something different maybe hurtful ???)

Lvl4 Bloodline power --Arcane Blood Rage (Blur, protection from arrows etc.) or should I go Lesser Beast totem????

Lvl5 Advancement Feat --Great Cleave (???? or something else)

Lvl6 Bloodline Feat: Disruptive

Lvl7 Advancement Feat -- Improved Cleaving Finish (Or something different???)

Lvl8 Greater Arcane Blood rage (Haste or displacement)

Lvl9 Advancement Feat - Cornugon Smash, Bloodline Feat: Combat Reflexes

Lvl10

Lvl11 Advancement Feat -- Improved Critical

Lvl12 Bloodline --Switch out Caster Scourge for something else maybe --Beast Totem, Greater Beast Totem, Bloodline Feat: Spellbreaker

Lvl13 Advancement Feat -- Critical Focus

Lvl14

Lvl15 Advancement Feat – Vital Strike, Bloodline Feat: Iron Will

Lvl16 Blood Line -- Keep True Arcane Bloodrage (???? I like the idea of turning into a dragon but DPS wise would I do more damage with sword and different feats???)

Lvl17 Advancement Feat Improved Vital Strike

LVL 18

LvL 19 Advancement Feat – Greater Vital Strike


I’m a bloodrager (arcane).. That took a familiar instead of my first level bloodrager power. What happens if my familiar dies? How do I get it back. How do I re summon it?


I'm new and getting ready to start a pathfinder campaign. I've read where you could be a warpriest take Sacred fist and crusaders flurry and choose a god whose favored weapon is a bastard or great sword and do flurry of blows with the sword. This looks neat. Could you still do this and wear armor (heavy)? I'm so new to this system when I try to figure this out my head spins. :).

Could someone please help and give my a sample build and show me feat progression and traits (feats and traits are where I get most lost with this build). I want to do a two handed weapon not two weapon fighting. I'd like to be half orc but if I have to be human that's ok. I get a 25 point build for the game.

Thanks for suggestions.


I'm starting a new pathfinder campaign. I have limited experience with pathfinder and no experience with the advanced classes. I was hoping a few people could list some builds to help me get started.

I get a 25 point build for character creation in this campaign. I want to be a half orc. I want to either have the aberrant or arcane bloodline. I can use Primalist archetype.

What I'd like to see and get help with in particular are feat progress list for builds especially using Primalist and figuring out what to dump and what to replace in regards to aberrant and arcane bloodlines. Also what Rage powers to take as replacements.

Thanks in advanced
