03-02-07, 02:19 PM I've been looking about for a good prestige class for a CN Human Cleric who's playing the part of a battle priest, at the moment, I've only been able to Warpriest, but in all honesty I'd prefer to keep as much spell casting as possible.

I have the War & Strength Domains

My current feats that I've taken are "Extra Turning" and the "Extend Spell Metamagic", I'm looking to take maybe persistent spell and divine metamagic.

Thank you for any ideas for classes & feats I can take!

The Fist of Raziel is Exalted, the Sacred Fist is ... well, either if you have a lot of feats or some monk levels, the Hospitaller is (beats the heck out of me why) non-chaotic, and so far my only idea would be something rather strange. IF you have the air domain, look at the windwalker from Faiths and Pantheons. If not... I think City of Splendor had a 5-level PrC with full attack and 4/5 spellcasting - Graycloak or something like that.

03-02-07, 08:21 PM I am sorry to mention this without the issue number, but a year or two ago there was a Dragon that had a couple of Cleric PrC's and one was for a Kordite. You lost two spell levels I think out of the five levels but you got huge strength abilities. I remember the 5th level ability allowed you to use your strength domain power and it lasted a number of rounds equal to your PrC level.
