[QUOTE="Luke Hector, post: 6877069, member: 6846150"] I still don't know if I want to be a blasty damage type though. Arrgggg why is it so hard? I get what you're saying though about the benefits of light. I can't cover everything though, I can't cover Lore (Rogue has INT as highest stat but doesn't have proficiencies in Lore based skills I don't think), AOE's, healing and tanking all in one build easily. So I think I got two domain choices in the end. Life or Knowledge. I either go for the armoued up healing tank with Heavy Armour Mastery, heavy armour, hill dwarf and take care of the healing/tanking role OR I take Knowledge, concentrate on Wis/Con and then Int/Cha ignoring STR and Dex, but take the necessary races/backgrounds (half elf sage maybe) to acquire all 4 lore skills at proficiency plus extra and still manage to heal/buff nicely, but stick to medium armour + shield with spiritual weapon/normal weapon in combat. I think AOE's are going to be on the short side unless I go Light and I don't know if I want to go that route, we may just have to suck it up, I'm sure our DPS munchkins will take care of hordes right? I enjoy healing and buffing a lot and tanking so Life sounds great. But then I like being the resources/support guy so Knowledge is fun too but it's highly dependant on campaigns and the DM. You either end up being such a useful resource out of combat or you end up just sucking. [/QUOTE]
