Warpriest

[Shadowscale]

I just had made a skald thread, this is the other ACG class I'm interested in and would like some help with if possible?

Where does a warpriest shine? Like what sort of blessings should it be taking, what are good feats, and some of the class features like sacred weapon? How would they even come online?

Is a warpriest just a non alignment restricted paladin? Like how would you build one to be a good martial and caster?

My personal choice for this class is the Sacred Fist archetype with Pummeling Charge for easy pounce.

The Warpriest isn't that much like a Paladin, they're basically just a melee focused Cleric. Their advantage is in unexpected combats, as where most buff dependent classes rely on pre-combat buffing, the Warpriest can use Fervor to buff as a swift action. They have a lot of nifty things, but don't be fooled, Fervor is by far their most powerful.

One neat trick is once they hit 10th level can get the Quicken Blessings feat and do things like use the Summon Monster blessings as a swift action. For the most part though you're probably just going to play them like a melee class that gets some nice utility from their spells, especially out of combat.

Another interesting thing is that a Sacred Fist Warpriest is one of the only ways to make a Crusader's Flurry build (flurrying with your deities weapon) with only a single class. I recommend going into Holy Vindicator once you're there. Of course, it would be better if Pummeling Charge worked with other weapons, but people have ignored the errata before.

You can get Pummeling Charge on other weapons; Martial Versatility (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/racial-feats/martial-versatility-combat-human) opens it up to all other Close, Monk and Natural weapons.

Cool! Now to just figure out which of the big four martial weapons is the better weapon for something like this...

Thank you, that helps me a lot. I was trying to build the quintessential Orc THF warpriest, now I should be able to.
