What armor can I get that is that high that doesn't outright kill my dex modifier.


I'm just using the stat block you mentioned. Same weapon. Combat reflexes and improved initiative as perks. +4 1D10+4 20x3 and 17 ac isn't horrible.


Bladed brush isn't a legal feat. From path of the righteous. My dm won't let me use it. Thanks for the help anyway guys. Back to the drawing board I guess.


So should I wait until level 6 to get power attack? And what should I do about armor. Those dex maxes are detrimental to this build but I want my defense a little higher. I was also considering going half elf but their stupid skill feat ruins the build a little bit.

Right, but what does that do for a Warpriest?

It means that I would be able to benefit from slashing grace. They would chain together. Slashing grace makes you damage for the glaive use dex. That's for the weapon not an individual attack right? So then wouldn't all attacks using the glaive then use dex and not strength?


Bladed brush says When wielding a glaive, you can treat it as a one-handed piercing or slashing melee weapon and as if you were not making attacks with your off-hand for all feats and class abilities that require such a weapon (such as a duelist’s or swashbuckler’s precise strike).


I don't know if slashing grace and bladed brush stack, but if they do the character generator I'm using doesn't do the math on it's own to attach the dex to the glaives damage. That's assuming power attack stacks too? I'd assume it would considering it mentioned attack based feats working off dex.

I need to redo my spells though. All of those were level one spells.


Bladed brush is effectively an upgrade version of that:

Benefit(s): You can use the Weapon Finesse feat to apply your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier to attack rolls with a glaive sized for you, even though it isn’t a light weapon. When wielding a glaive, you can treat it as a one-handed piercing or slashing melee weapon and as if you were not making attacks with your off-hand for all feats and class abilities that require such a weapon (such as a duelist’s or swashbuckler’s precise strike).

As a move action, you can shorten your grip on the glaive, treating it as though it lacked the reach weapon property. You can adjust your grip to grant the weapon the reach property as a move action.


So if I did that build how should I stat myself out.
I was flirting around with this:

Strength 10
Dexterity 18
Constitution 15
Intelligence 10
Wisdom 15
Charisma 7


Wait wait wait. My deity that I changed to to use the glaive let's me use dexterity as my to hit. And makes the glaive interchangeable from a two handed reach to a one handed close range melee. It costs a feat but I can have bladed brush and combat reflexes. And keep my other stats the same but sink into dex and give up strength almost entirely. So if I did that build how should I stat myself out.

Would you recommend ditching toughness or improved initiative for combat reflexes? And how do you feel about protection and luck as blessings?


Yes level one human sorry. I don't know if I want the reach just for the fact that I'm not sure if I understand the mechanics of it all that well. Switch con and dex will make me get hit more though. I can't afford better than scale mail right now.


Had my first character death my last time playing. I've been working on a warpriest build and wanted opinions on whether or not it would work in game as well as I'm hoping. I'm also not 100percent sure of the legality of the spells if I'm honest. I'm wanting to get as close as I can to the controller tanky type. That's why I got the self buffs. And the compel hostility. I also want to be able to clean house while I'm in front drawing attention to myself.
