Message: <blockquote data-quote="Azlan" data-source="post: 3607760" data-attributes="member: 2340">1. Does a cleric have to wield – as often as possible, in combat – his deity's favored weapon? If, say, I'm playing a cleric of Pelor, whose favored weapon is a mace, and I find a +1 morningstar, can I switch from using my non-magic mace, to using that +1 morningstar?2. If a cleric does have to wield his deity's favored weapon, what about a multi-class cleric? It would be a shame to be a fighter/cleric, and be proficient with all martial weapons, but be forced to wield a simple weapon because that's my deity's favored weapon. And if I were playing a fighter/cleric of Pelor, the sun god, and I found a Sun Sword, it would be a crying shame if I couldn't wield it because of the limitation imposed by my god's favored weapon. (A fighter/cleric of Pelor, wielding a Sun Sword, sounds like an awesome combination, to me.)3. If I choose to be a cleric, but I do not choose the War domain, do I still gain proficiency with my god's favored weapon even if that weapon is not among the cleric's weapon proficiencies? (Note, if the answer to question #1 is "yes", then the answer to this question can't be "no". That is, unless a non-War domain cleric is forced to take, as one of his feats, a proficiency with that favored weapon, that he would otherwise not be proficient with.)4. What are the consequences, if any, a cleric suffers if he does not prefer to use his deity's favored weapon?</blockquote>
