![]() Rather than Sentinel, I would go for Polearm Master since you would rely on Shillelagh (Sentinel is better if you want to cast spells more and mainly rely on OA's for swinging your weapon).Īs for Resilient vs. I would pick Resilient(CON) for the saves and concentration checks rather than War Caster (since you go to 18 CON with the resilient as well). Since you can start with 15+2 CON 15+1 WIS, 2 stat increases on WIS is a given. Does anybody have race or feat suggestions?Given that Dwarves make the best clerics, you should be good (no STR needed to carry plate). ![]() I could take Variant Human (currently going Hill Dwarf) IF I wanted a feat. If you are going to spend a feat on Shillelagh, I would just go Nature instead though. I don't think the War Priest abilities are that powerful except for Avatar of Battle The main things it has over Nature or Tempest is a rather impressive spell selection. Bonus actions can be spent on different things (healing word, spiritual weapon, war cleric bonus attack, etc). ![]() Shocking Grasp is 4d8 and lower chance to hit unless it has advantage (uses INT). Shillelagh it is.Shillelagh at 16 is 3d8+5 with any domain that adds d8's to damage (more with a magic staff note that a +3 staff does not require attunement, but a staff of striking does). Pros: not electricity damage, DPS can be boosted w/ Staff's ability. Looks like Shillelagh comes out on top, even without using the Staff's special ability.ĭownsides: no advantage (many people wear armor), uses bonus action War Priest, however, only works (wis mod) so max 5 times per day, but in the current campaign, we rarely have more than two fights per day. However, War Priest, the 1st level War Cleric ability, can let me take another Attack action as a bonus action. Shillelagh spell on a Staff of Striking: d8 +5 +(staff of striking some thing here) = 9.5 damage + staff of striking damage. avg d8 = 4.5, total DPS for one cast: 18. That will end up doing (at 20th level or somesuch) 4d8 electricity damage.
