[QUOTE="Ashrym, post: 7627239, member: 6750235"] I'd be far more likely to take HAM, Resilient Con, or even Heavily Armored (freeing up DEX build points) than Magic Initiate for Shillelagh going variant human. My idea of a traditional cleric is sturdy enough for the front line while providing magical support. The difference in accuracy and damage on a single attack class isn't significant enough to warrant the feat assuming I don't cap STR anyway. If I were taking PAM then I would take that as the bonus feat. Arguing a 10th level and lower game that spends two out of three feats / ASI's for Magic Initiate and PAM leaving 1 ASI for WIS. Taking PAM as the bonus feat gives the ASI for WIS and one for STR to make for the better 10th level build. Shillelagh is useless if the character cannot pump WIS due to a lack of ASI's spent on feats. [/QUOTE]
