Hello everyone,
I am very new to Pathfinder and am trying to create a Wood Oracle for a "low magic" campaign. In this setting, magic items are rare and essentially level 5 spells are as high as you can go until higher character levels.
The reason that I want to build a Wood Oracle is that the revelations and spells seem like a really good way to make my own items and buffs in a world where a +2 or higher item is fairly rare. Additionally, there are some interesting RP items with the "Speak with Wood" and "Tree Form" revelations.
For the builds sake, I would like to plan something through Level 10 or higher, with a 25 point buy. I'm really new to the game, so I am kind of basing things off of other stuff I have read, but here are my thoughts:
Str>Con>Cha>Dex>Wis>Int
Str 18 (+2 human)
Dex 10
Con 16
Int 10
Wis 10
Cha 14
I am really lost on Feats to take. My initial thoughts are that Wood Oracle revelations seem to give the most bang for the buck and it might be worth grabbing them as early as possible.
H - Power Attack
1 - Extra Revelation ( Wood Armor )
3 - Furious Focus
5 -
7 -
9 -
11-
13-
Revelations
1 - Wood Bond
3 - Wooden Weapon
7 - Tree Form
11- Speak with Wood
I know I'm not going to be as great as a true martial, but my thought was to create a decent combat character with a bit of utility. I also really like the idea at later levels being able to morph into a tree and create a club to beat on things. I know that technically you can't morph into a Treant until much higher levels, but I think my DM might allow me to use at least the "skin" of a Treant at lower levels. My question is what plant(s) would be good to change into? If I can give him some ideas, I think he'll work with me.
Additionally, I'd love some help on spells and skills. I know the Wood Oracle spells are pretty good (shillelagh, barkskin, tree stride) but I'd welcome any suggestions on other spells and skills to look at. Extra heals in the group would probably be welcomed, so I guess I need to keep that in mind.
Any help would be appreciated, as I am still learning a lot of this stuff. The only restrictions I have is nothing 3rd party.
