[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 5707881, member: 35909"] Yup, I listened to half, went out for a while, came back and caught the rest. Pretty good overall, I think you were too hard on Oracle. :) Some of the curses are not that bad (tongues especially, but Lame isn't crushing, either), and while Oracle dip is basically inferior to Cleric when compared apples to apples...the thing is, mysteries sometimes offer things you cannot get anywhere else. In my guide, I make a point to note that truly unique class features is a powerful reason to dip. My personal favorite is Water Sight from the Waves mystery. Now your (sneak attacking?) archer can put up an Obscuring Mist for huge defensive boosts and shoot through it just fine. Another thing to look at is the dual-cursed archetype. Yeah, two curses is an even suckier burden, but i already mentioned two that are minimal impact. Now you can get the incredible powerful Misfortune revelation, which as written you can even use on allies to HELP them. Finally, several mysteries have a few low level revelations that are superior to feats. Being an Oracle 1 means you can pick them up...as feats. It's not the best dip class, but it has a lot of promise. My guide's still very much a work in progress, but if you want to see what I have so far, I have it here: [url=http://torchofspirit.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=170]Torch of Spirit - Exotic Delights: A Dipper's Guide to Pathfinder[/url] [/QUOTE]
