Or am I just missing something?
I've just started playing an Oracle from Pathfinder, available here:
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/extras/advanced-player-s-guide-playtest/oracle---final-playtest
I chose the Tongues curse and the Heavens mystery, mostly for roleplay reasons. The powers of the latter seem intriguing, though on further reading it is not nearly the strongest mystery.
Here is me in a nutshell:
Aaaimar Oracle 4 (with homework to level to 5 after a session)
STR: 12
DEX: 12
CON: 14
INT: 14
WIS: 10 (incl. +2 aasimar, though it was drained to 9 in 1st session)
CHR: 22 (including+1 level 4, +2 Aasimar, +2 headband)
Feats (I think I should be able to trade these out if I get good suggestions, as none have come into play yet): spell focus (illusion), improved initiative.
Spells: All cures and color spray (from class)
1) prot from evil, entropic shield, command
2) sound burst
Mysteries:
1) Lure of the heavens
3) Coat of Many Stars
The other characters are a fighter aiming at paladin (not so shabby in pathfinder) a bard/rogue archer looking to arcane archer or order of the bow initiate, and a 5 class abomination at level 5 that will be continuing as a warlock. So not supremely optimized.
So my questions? How severely gimped am I? What feats should I take (from PF core or completes)? What direction should I take this character build-wise?
You see, this Oracle thing is quite new, and I've never even played a divine caster before.
