so im trying to get my friend to start playing pathfinder and other pen and paper RPG games. i like pathfinder the most of all of the systems ive played in, so i wanted to make a character for him to play.
he loves WoW and has played a shaman (enahncement)since the game first started, its been his main and he has plyed that character in high ranking arena teams, so he knows the class inside and out.
my issue is that there isnt a true interpertation of the WoW shaman in any form with this game. i mean i could try a barbarian / sorcerer but i couldn imagin that being very functional, it would need to dual wield, have access to all 4 elements of magic ( earth water air and fire) and still be able to hurt things well enough to shine as a melee front liner.
what i have so far:
race orc(half orc technically)
invulnerible rager 12/druid 8 (weather domain)
(racial toothy)
STR 18 (+2 racial)
dex 12
con 14
int 12
wis 14
cha 7
traits (metamagic reduction x2)
twf orcish battle axe(broke it in half for RP purposes)
rhyme spell
cant think of much more then this.
i was thinking magus, but the issue with magus is that it has no "nature flavor to it" so he wont like it, i showed it to him first. i dont like homebrewing classes, but im thinking i may just need to allow this character to use spellstrike in place of wild shape and maybe some of his dr or rage powers, to let him "spell strike" (not spell combat) with his casted spells, since thats what a shaman does.
Magus is the best approximation, but you will be missing healing and the second weapon.
