[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 6305571, member: 4936"] Leif, build looks legal and all. The attribute buy seems...really weird to me, but it's not illegal. :) If I were to give advice, I'd say knock the Intelligence down to 12, Dex up to 16, Str down to 10, and Con to 12. The remaining point could go to Intelligence (to set you up for Combat Expertise or whatever) or Wisdom or Str, I guess since it boosts your carry capacity there. Alternatively, if you could scrape up 6 points from other stats (ie - Str to 10, Dex to 14, Int to 12 or something similar), you could put it into Charisma for a base score of 17, then put the levelup on that for a Cha of 18. And that is good for sorcery. :) And as for Spell Specialization, be careful with it because it doesn't allow variable effects to exceed the limit allowed by the spell. So you'd get +2 dice of damage on Fireball, but you'd still cap out at 10 dice at level 8. That makes the feat a lot less valuable on spells that don't have open-ended progression. [/QUOTE]
