Build Review?

[Koury]

I am starting a campaign soon and would appreciate you guys looking over this real quick and make sure I didn't do anything stupid or miss something obvious. Suggestions for improvements always welcome.

The character.

Relevant Info
4 flaws allowed
Mage of the Arcane Order prereqs changed to '2 metamagics' instead of 'Cooperative Spell plus any metamagic'
Easy and Practical Metamagic stack and can lower Metas to +0 but not further.

Party consists of: Dwarven Cleric of Pelor with Hunger and Strength domains, Dwarven fighter going for Stonelord, Battle Sorcerer focusing on ray spells (chain, split, etc), a skillmonkey type who has submitted a sheet yet (I believe he will be rogue/bard/master of masks something or other), and me.

So, how am I doing so far? Any other spells I should add to my book? Also, a little help with what spells to memorize would be appreciated. Look at my Notes section to see what I have in mind currently.

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Koury]

I feel compelled to bump ask once more for someone to look this over and help me out before letting this slide into the abyss.

Thoughts/suggestions/anything would be welcome and appreciated.

Pelor has the hunger domain? Clearly PELOR THE BURNING HATE HUNGERS FOR YOUR SOULS!

[Temotei]

Four flaws? Wow.

[Tyndmyr]

Take pathetic flaw strength instead of wisdom. Wisdom affects will saves, strength affects carrying capacity. The latter is almost entirely irrelevant.

By my count, you should have a total of 35 skills.

On a side note...it looks like you've dumped 4 points into wisdom. Once you've swapped the flaw to strength to compensate, take those points out, and dump them into con or dex. Either should result in another +1 modifier, and will be pretty helpful in the long run. If you're a fan of touch spells, go dex, otherwise, con.

Spend 10gp on padded shoes if stealth is required. Sure, it's only a +1 move silently bonus, but hey...it's 10gp, and it's nonmagical.

Consider a few more mundane purchases. Yknow, the basics, if this stuff isn't assumed in your campaign. Rope, a few trail rations, a waterskin, that sort of mundane junk. Also, list your spellbook in your possessions.

PF: I laughed But yeah, that was allowed by the DM, so meh.

Tem: Yeah, I thought the same thing. I rolled with it. I'm scared of exactly what we will be facing though with this higher power level we have going.

To be a little more specific then "Please help," how is my selection of spells looking? What should I take for a standard load out, spell wise? In my Notes section, I have my current plan, but I'm not sure where it could be better.

[Xzeno]

Wizard? Check. Conjurer? Check. Yer good to go! But seriously:

Loving the cha. I was gonna say more con less dex but... ya know, elf.

I noticed you're holding 60 arrows in your quiver. IIRC, quivers hold only 20. To be honest though, most of my players right down infinity in their ammo section. I always let em get away with it.

The name's alright. Kind of roles off the tongue, but I feel that it's missing a hard consonant sound.

121 years old!? Oh, right, not all campaign settings are exactly like mine. Continue.

CG is the best alignment, bonus points there.

She's a little short for my tastes, but that's hardly important.

I don't really like the picture. To me, it doesn't really look quite right. Actually, come to think of it, I don't really like pictures on character sheets.

Edit: Ninjaed, sadly. In my defense, I was coding as I wrote. I thought I'd be the first response. At least I commented on the fluff.

Abuse Sanctum Spell to get a spell lower than it's actual level!

[Koury]

Oh, thanks Tyndmyr. You ninja'd me, btw.

Point taken on Pathetic: Wis vs Pathetic: Str.

The sorc is gonna be taking most of the ray spells, I'm looking more toward control. Sleep, grease, glitterdust, etc. I sure could use the Con though, another good tip on the Wis exchange.

Shoes = free sneak? Why not?

Mundanes will be added last. That way I have these kind of things first.

[Koury]

Xzeno: Short? I took the max height for elf MEN

As for the quiver, I just kinda hoped the DM wouldn't care. I could most likely take just 20 and be good for a while anyway. I'll try and make this fly first though.

[Pharaoh's Fist]

Abuse Sanctum Spell to get a spell lower than it's actual level!

The errata for Sanctum Spell states that while the spell uses a slot lower than normal, the spell level is not changed, so a third level spell in a second level slot is still a third level spell.

IIRC.

Xzeno: Short? I took the max height for elf MEN

Elves are too short in D&D for my tastes, then.

As for the quiver, I just kinda hoped the DM wouldn't care. I could most likely take just 20 and be good for a while anyway. I'll try and make this fly first though.

Do you really see yourself using 20 arrows, ever? Especially in one day. You can just restock back at camp. Problem solved.

[Koury]

Sheet updated as per Tyndmyrs suggestions.

Here, maybe this will help with my spells, just moving the list here.

Summom Mirror Mephit, level 2, Expedition to the Demonweb Pits. Abuse well.

[Doc Roc]

That spell is one of the very few that is canonically almost impossible to get a hold of.
