03-26-07, 09:28 PM I am considering several Grey Guard builds. I have two general trains of thought going on here, one is starting off Pally 3/Cleric 2, potentially Mayaheine (War & Whatever domain) or Lydia (Travel & Liberation domains), and the other being Pally 2/Favored Soul 3. The Cleric option allows me access to two domain powers, progression to 4th level spells by 15th lvl, as well as the turn ability and access to divine feats. The Favored Soul option also progresses to 4th lvl spells by 15th lvl, but I lose the divine feats from turning and domain powers, although I can then use Wis as a dump stat. What do you people think of each option?

Grey Guard gives 1/2 progression - he'd end up casting 4th level spells either way eventually is the problem - though casting 4th level spells at 13th instead of 15th is not exactly the same thing.

Have you considered advancing Divine Crusader with Grey Guard?
