Thanks for your answers, appreciated!

Btw, another investigator-related question: considering that my dm is fine with using racial sla as a feat requirement, is arcane strike worth it for investigator? It seems perfect before lvl 5, but idk weather it will fit action economy after Quick Study.

Bloodrager gets you, rage, wand heavy armor (stealblooded), which stacks with id rager which makes you a psychic and gives you other cool bonues.

Thanks for the option, some of the bonuses are really nice, but considering only 1 bloodrager lvl i wont be raging a lot, is it really worth to trade small but constant familiar bonus for cool stuff that works 5 rounds a day?

Interesting, but seems it comes online pretty late. And as for traits, one is reserved for campaign trait, other is Student of Philosophy, which is important for party-facing as an investigator.


First of all, i'm pretty new to PF, so sorry in advance if any of my questions will seem stupid or smth.

So, i'm building a str-based investigator (empiricist) and i want to take a 1-lvl dip to get some heavy armor proficiency. Delaying spell progression and studied combat might be painful, but I want heavy armor for some rp-reasons and burning 2 feats on it seems even worse.
I see 3 options currently, but can't decide which one is better. Or maybe there's smth more i don't see.
1. Basic Fighter. Pretty simple, +1 BAB and extra feat (and feats are great).
2. Battle Host Occultist (transmutation implement). +2 bonus to physical stat is great while i can't afford enough stat-bumping gear, legacy weapon is cool, 2 spells slots and a cantrip might be useful. But i loose 1 BAB for those goodies.
3. Steelblood Bloodrager. Bloodrage is cool (though 6 rounds a day is not to much), bloodline familiar is great and versatile (while it will not grow stronger, it still gives a nice bonus). And +1 BAB ofc.

So what do you think?
