[QUOTE="YokoburiKinura, post: 3241383, member: 16986"] Wow, that's a lot to digest. Let's see what I can respond to off the top of my head... In general, I've tried to take into account both the domain spell lists and domain powers. Destruction's smite ability is clearly one of the best available. I'm not too inspired by the spells, though - I'm just not a big fan of Inflict spells. Strength and War have good lists, and their main failing is the overlap of Magic Vestment, leaving me no choice in that spell slot, not that I'd be prepping anything else for a long time. I'm definitely not going to count out Destruction just yet, though. You're right about 28-point buy being very tight. Most of my playing with the numbers assumed 14 Wisdom, 12 Constitution, leaving me enough to up the Int score. With an extended or empowered Endurance, I think I could get away with Con as it is. Just how big a problem is it to have less than 15 Wisdom (assuming I'm not terribly worried about True Resurrection and the like)? I can't really argue with what you say about multiclassing - either Fighter/Cleric (which is almost essentially Paladin without the Paladin benefits) or almost all Cleric... definitely sways me in the direction of pure Cleric at this point. Ooh, prayer beads! I just may have to rethink blowing my whole budget on mithral armament... :] [/QUOTE]
