Heyho everyone!

I'm getting ready to play in my first E6 game and I'm planning to play a witch, but I'm struggling on which Patron to take and was wondering if any of you could offer some advice in that regard. I'm leaning to Trickery or Time right now. Thanks ahead of time for all the advice.


I've been playing a homebrew campaign over the last year and we had already come to the conclusion that signature deed worked with the swashbuckler before the errata came out. I had plans of using that deed for opportune parry & riposte, but obviously the errata put a kink into that plan.

My character is now 1st level master of many styles (crane) and 9 levels of swashbuckler. I'm leaning towards using signature deed on targeted strike or the bleed attack once I get there and I'm curious what people's opinions are now on which deed is best to take regardless of the one's I zeroed in on.

Also I'm debating at 13 whether to take greater weapon focus and greater weapon specialization or critical focus and critical versatility. Would either of those two be better? Is there a better option to take? (Current feats are: slashing grace, weapon focus-scimitar, steadfast personality, leadership, weapon specialization-scimitar, snake style, combat reflexes, extra panache).

Thanks for all your advice guys.


By chance two of our group have rolled a 50 point character and a 41 point character. I rolled a 23 point character and was going to play a teleportation conjurer wizard. The ability it offers sounds REALLY cool and its been a long time since I've played a wizard.

However, the DM took pity on me and rolled stats for me and I now have a 42 point character to play around with. I don't even know where to begin with that. It seems like you can do a great deal with it. I'd like to remain an arcane caster of some kind with it, but I'm not opposed to multiclassing.

My stats are as follows:

17
16
15
14
14
12

I'm asking for any ideas or thoughts on what I should play. Builds? Feats? Combinations? I appreciate all the advice.


Heya Folks,

This is my first post on the boards. While I've done my research on this topic, I'm still finding it difficult to pick a feat which just became open for me. I'm currently playing a sword and board TWF human 1 fighter/6 paladin of Iomedae.

Somewhere around the divine bond (5 or 6ish) I was able to get a griffon as the mount. The DM allowed me to switch the build to the chevalier archetype. This opened up a feat, because I had taken mounted combat at level 5 and it then became a free feat added to my list. Here is what I have right now:

Str 20 (+2 belt)
Dex 20 (+4 from Book)
Con 14
Int 12
Wis 10
Cha 18 (+2 bump from Desna)

Feats:
1 Weapon Focus Longsword, TWF, Improved Shield Bash
3 Double Slice
5 ?????
7 Shield Slam

Chevalier free Feats:

Mounted Combat, Ride-by-Attack

The longsword the paladin carries is an object familiar. I've narrowed my feats down to three. I'm open to suggestion beyond that. I'm just trying to figure out one that will work best.

1. Focused Study: ARG was not out when the campaign started and the DM gave me permission to rework the character to add that in. It's a great story feat, because I'm playing the character similar to a witch hunter in Warhammer (yes I know Inquisitor would have worked better). It would allow me to put skill focus in Sense Motive and Intimidate or Perception or Diplomacy by next level.

2. Longsword Specialization: This gives me a +2 to damage with my main weapon, but I get nothing for the shield. Because of it being an object familiar I can take the specialization.

3. Power Attack: Everything I read says this feat is a "must have", but I'm not entirely convinced. By next level I'd be taking a -5 to hit with both weapons and gaining +6 to damage. It works REALLY well against creatures I smite and situationally when I just hit with the longsword, but isn't a -5 too huge a penalty to burden for normal full attack?

I'm just looking for any suggestions on what to take. I've bounceed it around and I just can't decide. If there is something else I should take, feel free to throw it out there as well. Thanks for all the help.
