OK, so I have always been afraid of magic characters because they are just so confusing. Anyways, I am playing a campaign as a tanking cleric. Using this build http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Battle_Priest_(3.5e_Optimized_Character_Build)
Currently I am level 1 and I have no clue what spells to fix up for the day, and frankly I do not even get how a magic character is any good... I mean even with my wisdom bonus I get to cast 5 level one spells per day and each spell lasts like a round or a minute, how is that any good?
Basically I have the PHB for spells, anything else I have to request.
I can cast 3 level 0 spells, 2+1 level 1 spells, and a 1 bonus spell. My domains are Strength and Metal.
I figure I need to prepare Shield of Faith and Divine Favor and Enlarge Person (as my domain spell)... but I do not know how many of each to prepare and stuff.
Let me amend that, I do not know how a magic user can be good for more than like 1 encounter a day.
