I know the protector gets a wisdom boost so it feels like a no brainier, but I plan on being a tank for the party and spending a lot of time up close in combat.

We dont do multiclassing, or at least have never talked about it before so I dont want to plan on doing that.

Everything about the scourge Aasimar is cooler to me, and if I took protector I feel like it would only be for the wisdom boost because the flight they get once a day is infinitely less cool than the scourges ability.

Thanks for your input TLDR; scourge is way cooler to me, but the wisdom boost from protector might be too necessary to pass up.

A fun character is way better than an optimized character level 2 Original Poster 1 point 2 years ago Thanks I think I just needed to hear it from someone else, so I appreciate your reply level 1.

I think flight will solve more problems than extra AOE damage does, even once per day.

I dont disagree that consumption is cooler than flying around for a bit, the imagery is much more evocative imo.

Its also only a once a day thing, so its not like every combat Ill have to deal with it.

Dmg Version Aasimar Plus Im Definitely

My teammates might have an issue with it but Id spend a good amount of time coming up with a strategy for when I could do it and when would be a bad idea, plus Im definitely the biggest healing force in the party so I could see my character being very apologetic and patching my friends up, haha.

Flight sounds like it will come up more often out of combat than in combat, or maybe Im just too inexperienced to realize how it could be, but also seems like it would hold me away from the combat and thats not what a tank should do.

I was also thinking about the ability not being something I can control, and instead happens to my character involuntarily when something angers my god.

I think me writing all of this to defend one choice over the other confirms what I should do haha.

And my dm is really nice, so if it seems like I made a bad call early on, I bet hed let me change.

I am playing a Fallen Aasimar at the moment; the STR stat boost is actively useless, Id have liked the special stuff from Protector and Im not particular interested in the special ability but it was what was right for the character I wanted to make and anything else would have felt awkward.

It sounds as though youve come to a similar conclusion for your Cleric:) level 2 Original Poster 1 point 2 years ago Im really glad that this community is a lot more worried about my theme than my optimization, I come from a competitive video game background and its hard not to worry about optimizing so much.
