VMC Heaven's Oracle


Advice


Hi! I was hoping for some simple advice for a build I am putting together.

Half Orc Bloodrager VMC Heavens Oracle, Intimidate / 2HF build, Abyssal Bloodline

Now, I already have a curse picked out but I wanted to know what the good people here would suggest for the order I take revelations, or if any of them are not worth a feat-equivalent.

I am interested in-

Coat of Many Stars (Su): You conjure a coat of starry radiance that grants you a +4 armor bonus. At 7th level (Character Level:13, 17), and every four levels thereafter, this bonus increases by +2. At 13th level(Character Level:19), this armor grants you DR 5/slashing. You can use this coat for 1 hour per day per oracle level. The duration does not need to be consecutive; it can instead be spent in 1-hour increments.

Guiding Star (Su): Whenever you can see the open sky at night, you can determine your precise location. When the night sky is visible to you, you may also add your Charisma modifier to your Wisdom modifier on all Wisdom-based checks. In addition, once per night while outdoors, you can cast one spell as if it were modified by the Empower Spell, Extend Spell, Silent Spell, or Still Spell feat without increasing the spell’s casting time or level.

Lure of the Heavens (Su): Your connection to the skies above is so strong that your feet barely touch the ground. At 1st level, you no longer leave tracks. At 5th level(Character Level:11), you can hover up to 6 inches above the ground or even above liquid surfaces, as if levitating. At 10th level(Character Level:16), you gain the ability to fly, as per the spell, for a number of minutes per day equal to your oracle level. This duration does not need to be consecutive, but it must be spent in 1-minute increments.

Star Chart (Ex): Your copious notes contain a working model of the night sky expressed in artistic scribbles and arcane mathematical formulae. Once per day, you may spend 10 minutes contemplating your star chart to gain the benefit of the spell commune. You must be at least 7th level to select this revelation. (Character Level:13; Next Revelation:15, 19)


I honestly don't see any of them being worth it for a bloodrager.

I would expect the armor to be a lot less than you can buy with money. Guiding star I don't think is great for anyone. Lure of Heavens comes on line too late when using VMC (I would expect better ways to fly by level 16, but at best it isn't anything you couldn't replicate with a few scrolls of fly. Star Chart also isn't really very good for anyone.

I think their are better mysteries you could choose from. One that replaces DEX with CHR for AC for example would let you drop your DEX down. The battle mystery has a number of revelations that would synergize well with a bloodrager.

Silver Crusade

^ Except you can't pick up any of the cha to AC with VMC, only specific revelations are allowed.

That being said, I also am not a fan of Heavens as a VMC option. There are enough abilities that I like from Waves, Battle, Metal, and Fire that I think any of those would be a good option.
