[QUOTE="CTurbo, post: 7287287, member: 6855234"] This IS an interesting question since the Fighter is usually not looking for such a dip. I don't think we can answer fully without knowing what type of Fighter you intend this to be? Melee? GWF? TWF? Archer? Battle Master? EK? Dex based? Str based? I think a 1 level Barbarian dip is logical whether Dex or Str based as long as you avoid Heavy Armor. A Dex Fighter could enjoy a nice unarmored AC while resisting damage a couple times a day. All of the Clerics have something nice to add depending on what you want to do. I really like Tempest or War if you're building a melee Fighter. Especially if you roll for stats and can get a higher than normal Wis score. Even Life would be great. I think Rogue would be best for Archers and great for Dex fighters in general for obvious reasons. Even a 1 level Bard dip would be fun if you want to play a Charismatic Fighter. Draconic Sorcerer gives you better than Light Armor unarmored AC if you're going Dex Fighter. I do agree about if you're going to dip, you'd get so much more from a 2 level dip no matter which class.
