[QUOTE="nittanytbone, post: 2778804, member: 35709"] I would stay away from warpriest. Two reasons: First, 5 ranks in sense motive sucks. You'll have to buy it cross class and that sucks up 10 skill points. Clerics don't get too many. Second, you lose a caster level. Look at the benefits you gain at dipping into warpriest for two levels (or four) and weigh them against what you're losing out on (1 or 2 caster levels and will saves). If you absolutely must have a more martial aspect, and you are willing to lose a caster level, I'd just take a level in fighter. You get a bonus feat, can do it right away, you don't waste a ton of skill points to get in, and you get access to a few different skills (might be a time to max out jump or ride, or buy cross class knowledge skills). Finally, if you do plan on warpriest (or fighter), don't get the War domain. The free MWP is wasted if you plan on getting prof will all martial weapons via warpriest or fighter anyways. [/QUOTE]
