[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 4270100, member: 29014"] Four choices, six feat slots to make those choices (maybe six with stat editing). And the character isn't against type--it's one of the two standard subtypes of Cleric. Other than being able to take a higher Armour proficiency if desired (and that isn't a huge enough deal to make it worth it), the advice to make Strength a tertiary stat for the Wisdom Cleric is simply poor advice. Beyond 2 feat prereqs for armour/shield profs, there's literally no way that the added Strength is helping out. And really, it isn't a big part of the advice. There's a few people who keep bringing it up in this thread, but it makes little difference in the end, and it's the only way this Cleric is different from the suggested starting build for the Wisdom-Cleric in the PH. So it isn't that she's such an out-there build. I mean, it's not like I made a Warlock with low Con and low Cha and maxed out Int or something. There should be feats that the Wisdom Cleric can take, since it's one of the two types of Cleric in the book. And this issue has applied to other players in the thread making, for instance, Warlocks. And I've taken a look at trying to build an Eladrin Orb Wizard who plays exactly to stereotype for an Orb Wizard, and the same issue comes up there again. [/QUOTE]
