Build Review C/M/SF/H

[Rinzler]

Aasimar Cleric, Monk, Sacred Fist, Heirophant.

8 Cleric, 6 Monk, 10 SF, 4 H

Is this a good route? If someone has a build sheet similar to this (or has the time to make one quickly) off the nwn2 db it'd be greatly appreciated!

Thank you

The classes you list have amazing powerbuild synergy. So your combo would certainly work well as is. However, given the benefits of Hierophant the optimal combos are the following. As I see it, basically, if you want to use Monk Knockdown, a STR-maxed Monk 6 Orc build is best, if EDM, the Monk 3 Aasimar. One reason for maxing Hierophant is the Gift of the Deity feat, which increases many abilities by +2 more than the Owl's etc. route.

Aasimar Cleric, Monk, Sacred Fist, Hierophant... ? I do not think there is a way to get all those classes without being struck by the multiclassing experience penalty. I would just switch the race to Human or Grey Orc.

But anyhow, request is a request, and this is the best I can come up with: http://nwn2db.com/build/?276540 (Multiclassing experience penalty limited between levels 6-23, and caster level of 28, strength based to make most out of the 6 levels of monk.)

Yeah I pefer no XP penalty so I may go Gray Orc.

You're missing 2 levels. You want C8/M6/SF10/H6. 3 spell powers and practiced caster gives you a final caster level of 29. Works either as strength or WIS based. Personally I like going about 16 STR and mac WIS. Damage is a bit low, but still serviceable. Defenses are through the roof.

I adjusted my previous build, it had one level of Hierophant too much.

Anyhow, I would prefer to roll a wisdom based human 'Monk 3/Cleric 7/Sacred Fist 10/Hierophant 10' simply because it gets caster level of 32 and it can start out with both Able Learner and Spellcasting Prodigy.
