Is anyone wanting to be a healer?

I normally would but that is what I almost always play, so I'm trying to branch out. If no one does, I can go back to old faithful (but in a different system)

As a fire+wood kineticist I could take the feat that let's me create magic apples that heal 1d4 + 1 HP. It takes 2 action to create and people must use 1 interact action to eat it, so bad for combat, but you just need too wait 10 minutes before it heals someone who eat it again.

At level 1 it's fighting for space againt a Protector Tree spell, which is the inverse, being only useful in combat to soak up damage for adjacent allies

I am willing to sacrifice the dwarf barbarian role and take up the mantle of a druid or cleric, as necessary. I don't think the kineticist healing route will be enough for such a large group, if i had to guess. Ironmonger42, I will start looking at the healing options so you just pick what you'd actually like.

You can keep dwarf barbarian. . . upon further reflection I'm going to leave the Hellknight on the shelf for another game.

I'll pivot to the mega-caster build I'd been toying with. . . will make sure he can heal well.


It's going to be a spellbound Kobold Draconic bloodlone sorcerer- trying to decide between divine or primal spells?

Both can heal- anyone have pointers?

I am planning to try to be strong yet versatile. I plan to use the shield cantrip from lv 2 and use a bastard sword. That way I can use 1 or 2 hands based on how the rules for spellcasting come into play with the manipulate trait. I also want to try snagging strike, which makes it so if someone needs the enemy to be off guard I just need to make an attack one handed and on a hit the enemy is off guard as long as they stay within my reach and I keep the hand free, of I can grapple with the free hand. If damage is needed I can use vicious strike for 2d12+3 on a hit

I am going with half-elf Noble fighter from Cheliax. He is a truth seeker.

Thank you, this is generous of you. I will go back to the dwarf barbarian idea, if you are sure. Unfortunately I don't have any pointers for you.. ChatGPT i imagine would be quite amazing at helping you out here though with the finer points.

Can you be a draconic sorcerer and use divine or primal spells? I thought draconic sorcerers had to be arcane. I likely don't know something that would help there. I don't know divine vs primal enough to say which is better. I think both have the heal spell which means they are roughly the same if you aren't a cleric that gets a bunch of heal spells for free.

Draconic Bloodline

Seems so- Draconic can be Arcane, Divine, Occult, or Primal based on their dragon ancestor.
