Hey everyone I would like to pick your brains on something. I have been mulling over the new class Kineticist, and I will be playing a Kineticist in an upcoming campaign. After looking the class over I feel that taking another class like fighter first might give me better survivability.
I figure the more hit points I get from fighter at first level would help when I take burn, and I could pick up an extra feat that could help with the blast I will be using as a Kineticist such as point-blank shot and precise shot. I understand that losing a level in a class like this could be devastating in the long run so I would really like some ideas.
A little background to help for suggestions. The campaign will be Kingmaker, the other characters at the moment are a physic and witch, and the last player undecided.
GM had us role ability scores.
str:13
dex:16
con:14
int:13
wis:12
cha:12
These scores are not set in stone and I can move them around until the campaign starts.
I am thinking of human with dual talent for and extra ability score increase.
I am also going to choose the water element to start.
I am grateful for any suggestions you might have.
if you're going to be a kineticist I say you want con as your highest stat. you can go with touch attacks and then your accuracy is good.

If you want hp and are worried you may not be able to hit early on I'd take a level of unchained barbarian. More hp, the temporary hp keep going with your level whenever you do rage and the extra movement is always nice. the +2 to hit won't count since I don't think your blast is considered a thrown weapon, but it would if you do any of the blade infusions to make a melee attack with it.
Thanks for your input guys I realize know that I should have posted this question in advice because I'm asking for help with a character build, and sorry for the mix up I am putting up another post in the advice forum, but will keep this up I guess because I can't remove it
