I would like help building a Cleric of Zeus. the requirements have changed slightly, So that it now requires Weapon Focus (Javelin) and either Skill Focus: Knowledge (religion) or True Believer. It also requires you to worship Zeus, as this is a greek campaign. It is preferred to be human, and that isn't exactly a problem, i just have to ask first.

Cleric of Zeus 5/ Stormlord 1/ Divine Oracle 9 (taking Stormlord, for the extra caster levels and the abilities.)

And then... what? I need help fleshing this build out past level 6 or so. I was thinking Contemplative, but Zeus in this kinda homebrew setting is pretty bad. Currently his domains are Air, Chaos, Competition, Pride, Storm and Weather. If i went contemplative though, the build would be Cleric 5/Stormlord 1/Divine Oracle 9/Contemplative1/DO+1/C+4, for a total of 10 stormlord, 6 contemplative and 10 divine oracle levels.

I see 21 levels in your build. Was this intentional?

No. It should be Contemplative +3. Part of the reason i want something better... those 4 levels aren't bad, but aren't great.

Fatespinner? That's a class that is (effectively) 4 levels long.

Fatespinner requires Arcane spells, doesn't it? I'll check right now.

How do people feel about reserve feats? currently, for feats the character looks like this...

H: Skill Focus: Knowledge (Religion)
1: Weapon Focus: Javelin
3: Extend Spell
6: DMM
9: Persist Spell
12: Extra Turning
15/18: FREE

So, there is room for some higher level reserve feats, and at that point, they might be worth it.


EDIT: yes, Fatespinner needs arcane casting of 4th level.
