Ark the Pie King
First Post
Ahoy! This is a new character for a campaign I'm joining. They had a member drop out, so I'm filling in the new opening. The party is currently 6th level. I really love Final Fantasy jack of all trades Red Mage types, and this seemed like a pretty interesting and effective way to build a gish. I have to warn, I'm super new to 5e, having only played a single session about 6 months ago, so my understanding of a lot of the rules may be off, and I might not know all the options available to me.
I know it might not be optimal, but I think I want to go Half-Elf and use a Rapier. Pump dex, and bite the bullet with a 13 str. I think my point buy might look something like:
Str: 13
Dex: 16
Con: 14
Int: 9
Wis: 8
Cha: 16
This is without an ability score increase. It looks...I'm not sure. Wrong somehow. I feel a little weird dumping Wis and Int like that, especially since I don't consider her especially stupid in my mind, but I guess them's the breaks because of the bizarre multiclassing stat rules.
I'll be starting at Paladin 2/Sorcerer 6. I'm having some trouble picking which Sorcerer type to go with, and Metamagic. Quicken Spell is a given because of action economy, but the other I don't really know just yet. I'm more concerned with Sorcerer type. I imagine Dragon is the best choice for AC, but Phoenix looks like it gets some pretty neat toys. I really wish there were more solid options for lightning and cold types, because Sea Sorcerer looks super interesting, but I can't really see it working long term.
Anyway, that's what I've got so far. I'm looking forward to the feedback and assistance!
