[QUOTE="Drugged Dwarf, post: 2035748, member: 25447"] right. Before I start rambling on, I have to make a note of something. Nearly everyone I have known who plays D&D have always gone 'Blah, complete divine isn't really that good. I've found better.' So when I suggested once again returning to my dwarven clerical role, only to find out that the majority of the party turned out to be fighter types: we have our ranger, fighter, barbarian, samurai/kensai, rogue, no spell casters except me, I thought I was slightly screwed. I had wanted to develop my char to be a fighter type with super buffing spells for himself so he could kick the backside of anything around him. Aaaaand maybe healing a little here and there. Which would have rocked. But thanks to the way the party was, I was destined to become the healer of the party, and my chance in the spotlight was doomed. Then my good old DM introduced me to the Complete Divine series. One look at Radiant Servant and already I was hyped up. Lesser hit points, BAB wouldn't be good, but essentially I would become the super healer type. Nooooo problem. With feats such as Divine Metamagic, and Domain spontaniety, I have become more valuled in the party than I cared to notice. Specialising in Healing and the destruction of Undead has completely revamped my thoughts on the cleric completely. Not to mention the rather neat Relics rule thing that enables me to carry around some pretty hefty Items in exchange for a spell slot. I admit it, it isn't all good and right. some spells are kinda broken in there ((but not even half-as-broken as the Com. Adventurers clerical spell that removes your armour penalty for a couple of minutes!)), but all in all, its great for finding the perfect buffing spell to use in situations. and the extra Domains, abeit being slightly dull, do have some good access to newer and better spells. So, even though have to use it in conjunction with Book of Exalted Deeds for a good range of spells, all in all, I have to say complete divine isn't half as bad as you people think. Just pick a divine character, and watch him work his magic. [/QUOTE]
