[QUOTE="Warrior Poet, post: 2617716, member: 1057"] When I originally played the character, it was quite literally a few weeks after 3rd edition hit the shelves, so [I]Book of Exalted Deeds[/I] didn't exist. I think it's probably very workable now, and at the time, I had imagined that I could make it work - really take the mobile medic concept to the limit, lots of healing, helping, guarding spells, etc. I think in a particularly large party (6 or more players, say) it could work, too, as such a party might already have a decent amount of fighting power. Back then, we were a party of three, including a sorcerer and a rogue. Pacifist cleric to round out the group? Not so much. Still, I'm glad it's working for you. The reason I didn't go with subdual damage is probably because at the time, it was a bit like learning D&D all over again (new edition), and it probably never occured to me, or maybe I felt like beating someone into unconsciousness isn't exaclty pacifism, either, as I saw it. Anyway. The barbarian kicked a lot of ass. Until the animated lion statue ate him six levels later. The cleric I have now, though . . . he's hoss! Warrior Poet [/QUOTE]
