Good build.

Have you looked at the Standard Arcana Cleric(tm)

It swaps your polearm mastery for Magic initiate druid (picking up Shillelagh, Thorn whip, and Absorb Elements)
you can then max Wis instead of Str, allowing you to spend more on Con.

You'll have 14 dex and wear medium armour, plus a shield.

Your ancane spells you choose are Booming blade, and Chill touch. (which when you get to 8th will get your wis mod to damage)

Everything is then keyed off wisdom, and you can get another magic item as opposed to Gauntlets of Ogre power, perhaps Google of Night, so you can see in the dark?

Good advise! Thank. I changed the gauntlet for winged boots.
Strength was already at 8. I dropped charisma to 10 and raise Dex to 14.

I’m conflicted regarding Polearm Master and Cleric.

First, it’s a good Feat. It is, I love it. But Clerics don’t get a second attack.

And your Cleric doesn’t get Divine Strike, it gets Potent Spellcasting.

If you want a bonus action attack, I highly recommend the 2nd Level Spell Spiritual Weapon. It’s a bonus action, 1d8 + Wis Mod Attack. Not Concentration, and you can move it around the battlefield without moving yourself, and it lasts a minute (since a round of combat is 6 seconds, thats 10 rounds, and most fights don’t go more than 6 rounds save for boss battles).
