[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 249288, member: 115"] I wouldn't recommend taking Skill Focus: Lore unless you're a Bard or put a lot of skill into Lore. The +2 won't help you all that much. I wouldn't recomment the Parry route either - I haven't found it all that useful. Combat Casting and Skill Focus: Concentration is really good for a Wiz/Sor/Drd or a spellcasting Cleric or Bard. Cleave is a better feat in NWN than normally, since you're more prone to be surrounded. I'd recommend it for any fighting character. Power attack isn't that bad either (I've seen Linu kick some major butt with it). Skill Focus: Discipline is a pretty good feat to have as well - being knocked down or disarmed can be really serious. Better not to take chances. Sap and/or Knockdown can be handy... I would recommend Knockdown over Sap only because Improved Knockdown is easier to get than Stunning Fist. Finally, with a non-combatant character I think it's better to take Ambi/TWF/ITWF. This is a personal bias. It's a three feat chain, but if you're ever in a pinch I'd rather be making more attacks than less, and shields generally get in the way of spellcasters anyway. Besides, I don't like the metamagic feats much. [/QUOTE]
