What are your best buffing spells from (almost) all classes


Advice


I am a trip built fighter and took the leadership feat to have a little soulbound doll as my cohort, since she is tiny she'll be riding on me. I am building her to be a buff wizard to have a kinda reverse familiar that casts spells on me rather than the other way-a-round. I am thinking of going spell sage archetype to have access to all those sweet cleric/druid/bard buff spells. What are your favorite buff spells (that are touch not personal) from those classes? If you guys have any ideas to improve on this idea I'm open to suggestions ;)

thanks!


Favorite spell is the selected accelerate word spell available for word casters everywhere or via a feat at lvl 11

Sovereign Court

1 person marked this as a favorite.

Blessing of Fervor is the best buff spell ever made.

Silver Crusade

Excellent buffs for a trip fighter:

Divine:
4th level Blessing of Fervor (even better than Haste!);
3rd level Extended Magic Vestment (cheaper magic armor and shield)
3rd level Prayer (rare luck bonus)
2nd level Weapon of Awe (Sacred damage bonus stacks with everything);
1st Level Shield of Faith (Deflection bonus, often doesn't stack);
You want Divine Favor but you probably can't get access to it.

Arcane:
Haste
Enlarge Person (ideal for a trip fighter, remember the -2 DEX for AoO count);
Cat's Grace (pump your AoO count when you are Large & get the most AoOs)
Heroism
False Life
You want Mirror Image but you probably can't get access to it

Other buffs you want:
Inspire Courage (aka Bardsong)

why is this your favorite? all I see is a cheap version of haste (although with a move action if you dont boost it) am I missing something?

Sovereign Court

I don't think that it can case enlarge person on you.


Animal Growth is superb but I don't think its appropriate in this case.

I like it! I would have wanted a bard dip on this build but the stats on the soulbound doll suck so bad that wizard was my only choice. Even then I'll have to get int boosting items/books/wishes just to get her up to what a normal caster would have. I like that you took into consideration the fact I said I'm trip built (touched my heart lol) although I should have mentioned I have mythic combat reflexes (infinite AoO's)

why wouldn't it? (also, this is irrelevant, I can cast enlarge person on myself because of cloak of the hedge wizard)


I am reviving this thread because I'll be implementing the build very shortly, if anyone else would wanna chime in I'd be grateful

Scarab Sages

Channel vigor is an excellent cleric spell.


thanks for that, however I'm primarily looking for touch spells
got any?
