Hello everyone:smallbiggrin:! I am planning on making a character for the pathfinder society and I need help with 2 things:
Firstly is the character legal?
Secondly do you think I could do better with some of the choices I made?
Ok moving to the character in question.
Race: Angel-blooded Aasimar ( Human would probably be better but I like the fluff of the race)
as alternative racial traits I chose Deathless spirit , Scion of Humanity and Truespeaker
Stats before racial mod (20 point buy):
-str: 14
-dex: 12
-con: 14
-int: 14
-wis: 7
-cha: 15
Traits: Magical Knack or Dangerously Curious or Armor Expert or Reactionary or Birthmark. I am not sure at all about this one. How useful is magical Knack on a Paladin? Is it having Dangerously Curious better? I looked at some good wands I could use but does a +4 on use magic device overcome the +2 CL especially since I am considering getting unsanctioned knowledge as a feat. Birthmark will likely not be chosen as Paladins don’t need a divine focus so much and I can always have one tattooed on me. Initiative is always good but having a +1 on all dex and str check is enticing as well. All in all pretty indecisive on this one help would be much appreciated.
Feats:
Fey foundling (lvl1)
Power attack (lvl3)
Deadly aim or Unsanctioned knowledge (lvl5)
Deadly aim or Unsanctioned knowledge (lvl7)
Angelic Blood (lvl9)
Angelic Wings (lvl11)
(Deadly aim or Unsanctioned knowledge is up for debate. Not sure about either… I could as easily go extra mercy and/or ultimate mercy or just extra lay on hands)
Items:
Four-mirror armor 45 gp
Nodachi 60 gp
Shield, light steel 9 gp
Gauntlet, spiked 5 gp
Morningstar 16 gp
Sling 0 —
Kit, paladin's 11 gp
If I could I would go for a silvered spiked gauntlet but that would push me outside of budget.
So what do you think? Is it solid? Weak? Have I neglected something terrible? Thanks in advance for your time and advice.
