Ok so I am applying for a PbP game, We are starting at 17th Level, normal WBL. The only banned class is Arcanist and the Exploiter Wizard. Its a 25 PB game.
My problem is mostly paralyzed by the amount of choices at this level.
I know I want to build around Adaptability.
I planned on taking
Half-Elf Race
Venerable (Mantle of Immortality to offset this issue)
Eldritch Heritage (Arcane)
Spell Perfection (Paragon Surge)
Quicken Spell
Persistent Spell
Extend Spell
And Emergency Attunement to work with the FAQ on Paragon Surge
I am considering the Empyreal Wildblood Archetype to cast off Wisdom but I do like the idea of maxing Cha and playing her as someone who is more focused on her looks.
I am also partial to the Psychic Bloodline because it offers unique abilities.
The same is somewhat based on a party that has been going on a crusade and kicking gods out of the world, or at least thinking they are. They party has recently split and I would be playing on one side, And we can either choose to spec ourselves as future gods taking over spots that now are apparently vacant or enforce a no gods rule. I think most of the other players are going with the "We get to be god now" Route.
This is kinda why I went the Paragon Surge abuse route. Using Paragon Surge as a swift action to pick up Improved Eldritch Heritage and gain the three wizard/sorcerer spells for 17 minutes. I felt this was a little better than the picking Expanded Arcana feat because its 3 vs 1 and its for 17 minutes.
Now the FAQ for Paragon Surge says the first time you pick a feat and make the choices, those are locked in for the day. So if she cast it twice she gets the same spells back. But Emergency Attunement would allow her to change those choices AFTER they are locked in place, so its still in compliance with the FAQ.
What I need the most help with is, what Bloodline should I go with as my main. What Feats should I build around those listed above to keep her on her feet and benefiting the party.
Is there any specific gear she should be taking (Aside from Robes of Arcane Heritage which I plan on getting)
Summoning is the most versatile of all spell styles. I recommend Abyssal for the 15th level power. Also you can grab a bloodline familiar(familiar folio). Professor Q gave an in depth analysis in his wizard guide for summoning so you can reference that for summoning tips/feats. Spell Focus(conj) applies to a great many very versatile spells. Also you can grab improved familiar and headband of int +2(UMD) for action economy(fairie dragon is the best). Summon Guardian Spirit(feat Monster Summoner's Handbook) is another big boost to versatility and action economy.
And thank you for Emergency Attunement. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you as well, yeah Emergency Attunement was a surprise for me too, found it scanning about the Paragon Surge FAQ
