Or go Half Elf so that you can get the extra Hit Point every level from both Paladin and Oracle levels.

Actually, I'm thinking of dropping Combat expertise and picking up Eclectic at 3rd level when I take the first level in Oracle. Somehow I missed that when I was reading the APG.

Edit: This will also take away Improved Disarm, so I'll use that slot to pick up another Extra Lay on Hands.

Wis doesn't do anything for your healing as an Oracle (which is all Cha based,) I'm not sure what you mean?

I was talking about the Heal skill, but as was said above, that's not as utilized as I was expecting, so I will be dumping Wis to 8 and bringing Con up to 14 (leaving Dex at 10 and relying on armor).

Thanks!

My only question is about the frequency of healers in Society play. My personal experience is that few people seem to want to be healers, and I figured my Wis could supplement my supernatural healing. But if there are, in fact, adequate healers in Society, then I'd definitely dump Wis.

Hey all.

I'm getting ready for my first Society meet-up, and I thought an Oradin would be a nice way to start off. However, since I like to use fairly unconventional builds, I thought a combat Oradin would be fun. This is the first non-cleric build I've used in years, so bear with me. Faction is Scarab Sages, with Ancient Historian and Eclectic traits. I only have the CRB and the APG, so please keep the advice limited to those books.

Level 1, Paladin

Str 16

Dex 10

Con 12

Int 12

Wis 12

Cha 15 (racial)

Feats: Power Attack, Weapon Focus (Heavy Flail)

At Level 10, I'm expecting something like

Paladin 5/ Oracle (Life Mystery)5

Str 16

Dex 10

Con 12

Int 13

Wis 12

Cha 16

Feats: Power Attack,Weapon Focus (Heavy Flail), Extra Lay on Hands x3, Combat Expertise, Improved Disarm

A lot of this is flavor, as he hates killing things and only really carries weapons because that's the only way to get to the really ancient secrets.

What I'm looking for is general critique, but also, what freaking Oracle curse I should use. I don't plan on ever getting the ultimate benefit, and none of the curses in the APG is really all that convincing. Let me know if there's any other info I should add in.
