[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8985124, member: 7030563"] I am playing a Shaddar-Kai Fighter (Zhentilar's Finest)/Ranger (Fey Wanderer). I am wondering when I get to 12th level (Fighter 8/Ranger 4) if I would be better off with Shadow Touched (Wisdom-Cause Fear), +1Dex/+1Wisdom, or Resilient Wisdom. Her stats at that point (before the ASI) will be S20, D13, C12, I8, W15, CH10. She already has Heavy Armor Master and Lucky Feat. I need to boost Wisdom, both because one of my fighter subclass abilities keys off of it and because I add Wisdom to Charisma skills as a Fey Wanderer and I am the party face (I have proficiency in Deception and Persuasion and expertise in Intimidation). She is primarily melee oriented, however she got an awesome longbow (+2 and reduces movement of hit enemies by 10 feet) and our party does not have any pure ranged builds (2 melee martials, a Druid and an Artificer), so she actually uses the bow quite frequently even with only a 13 Dex. I was originally planning on Shadow Touched to get Cause Fear to work with beguiling twist at 15th level. Although she will have other ways to trigger that - menacing attack once a short rest through the superior technique fighting style and instill fear, a fighter subclass ability that lets her frighten an enemy as a bonus action PB times a day. I find her using a longbow more than I planned so the ASI would help with that. Note: Constitution is not being considered. With HAM, Absorb Elements, Blessing of the Raven Queen (resistance on all damage), Lucky and Intimidation Tactics (-15 average to enemies next attack PB times a day) she is pretty stout, even with her 12 Con.
