Character Suggestions - Miscr3ant - 04-28-2014
So, I chatted a bit with folks last night, and kind of came down to a couple of options.
One that I had was a Cleric (mostly)/Rogue/Monk Zen Archer of Mask. And I am really intrigued by the RP possibilities, but looking at it, of course it does not have the staying power of my last build, and is truly just a support character, being ranged focused. As well...I meant what I said when I learned a lot about Thay, and I plan all my builds now, not to level 20, but to level 12. The "in your face" limitations of that build are that most buffs are reduced timer here, so he will only have a few rounds of archery goodness before he needs to rest; not so good. Plus, for the slow days, soloing is not as much of an option.
So, I started looking at a full Cleric; more Cleric spells sooner, and if he actually does make 13, then he will have Resurrection as well. This one though I am looking at changing his Deity and Domains; Lathander, and Good and Sun. The RP goodness here in an evil based world is rich with possibility as well. He would have high CHR for Turning goodness, and more a "weapon of Mass Distraction" than anything else, as at level 12 he will have Improved Expertise to stand there and take it until he needs to heal someone.
This one is still also a support character, but one I am seeing as more useful.
Am I wrong in my read of the two builds? What do you guys think? :)

Cleric's are great for support or stand alone.. with the right build of course. ;) I have Kaya who is a cleric of Sune. She is the primary PC I pull out when there's no one on to run with because she can take it a hell of a lot better than the squishy mage and drow. Shuri is the next one to come out solo since she can hide so well. ;)

Bringing light to the dark places in the world, a worshipper of Lathander makes a great adventuring cleric.
