Hi everyone, I'm building a 7th level Cleric of Torm. My group is light on melee fighters so I built him towards that end. I had 18500gp to purchase equipment.

What I've chosen so far was a +1 Greatsword and a +2 Mithral Breastplate for a total cost of 10700gp leaving me with 7800gp left to spend.

What do you think I should purchase?

Purchase??

Give him 1 level in fighter, throw in feats like shield expert, shield charge, and divine shield. Couple that with power attack and two-weapon fighting and you've got yourself an awesome cleric.

Thanks for the advice but the character is pretty much built I just need help in choosing equipment that would be appropriate to a character following Torm.

Healing potions, and other battle potions...
Bag of holding (always nifty).
Ring of Protection.
Holy water (that's a given:D )
Anything that goes *BOOM*:angel:
Gadgets and small stuff...

Hope it helped.

Gee... I missed all those when I was creating my cleric of Torm awhile back.... But then I don't own that book.....

And you don't have to take fighter levels, it only hurts your spellcasting abilities. Granted, I took the Divine Champion class for mine since it suit the character better than a "plain ol' fighter" did... ;)

I don't even want to start listing all the magic stuff she carries... but then she's an epic character.... :D

Aim for making that greatsword a Holy Greatsword sometime in the future when you get enough gold to do so. Protective items come in handy as you'll want to be in the middle of any fight.

And that Shield that was mentioned, hope it's an animated one because you can't weild that sword and hold one at the same time.

A mount with all the accessories is always a must. Don't forget the basics like the Holy symbol. Also, instead of a greatsword, maybe take an aspergilium (forgot from which book they were described, I think it was Defender's of the faith). Saves you on the martial weapon profiency feat which could be used elsewhere, and you would have a free hand for a shield.
