This is my first post here so go easy

I am trying to create a Melee Cleric.

Im borrowing ideas from Mith and Firestar Rouge

Flirting with something like:

Fighter 8 Weaponmaster 16 Cleric 16
OR
Fighter 8 Weaponmaster 10 Cleric 26


What i was thinking about doing, is getting this cleric 4 attacks per round. Correct me if im wrong but i would need to take 16lvls pre-epic.(Fighter or WM)

If i do this do i kill my cleric skills?

- Cleric is going to be used for buffing & some healing.
(Bull srt, Death Ward, Freedom of Move, Neg E Prot, Etc)

- Trying to do is get more than 3 attacks and a high AB for this guy.

- I know if asking alot with this question. Since im not going Dev Crit, Is it possible to get any Dam Red

- Some things to consider:
A) +8 to +10 Magic Items
B) High Magic World
C) I have alot of items with extra spell slots
D) Disc is a must
E) Primary Weapon???
Right now i have a great Battleaxe (+9)with (7) Cleric slots so im drooling to use it, along with a B-Sword with (3) cleric slots.


Thanks for everyone's advise & help in advance. "What i was thinking about doing, is getting this cleric 4 attacks per round. Correct me if im wrong but i would need to take 16lvls pre-epic.(Fighter or WM)"

BAB is determined by class:
Fighter gets 1 AB per level.
Cleric gets 3 AB per 4 levels.

20 Fighter looks like: 11111111111111111111 = 20BAB
20 Cleric looks like: 01110111011101110111 = 15BAB

4 Attacks = 16BAB EX:
16Cleric/4Fighter = 16BAB
15Cleric/5Fighter = 16BAB
12Cleric/8Fighter = 17BAB
WM has the same BAB of a Fighter

I'd think Mith's build would help you:

There are lots of ways to do it. Remember to take WS/EWS during fighter feat levels.

-pc Also, you may NOT want to get your BAB up to 16. The reason is the spell Divine Power.

If your BAB is 15 or less, when you use Divine Power you boost your BAB to 20 and get the 4th attack at full BAB. So with a BAB of 15 or less, you go from 15/10/5 to 20/15/10/20. If your BAB is 16 or more, DP still raises it to 20, but the attack schedule will be 20/15/10/5. You only get the 4th attack at 20 if it is added, if you already have a 4th attack it just gets the same bonus the others do (+1 to +4, depending on what your BAB is).

Given that, I would go lower on the Fighter and WM levels, and higher on the Cleric levels. Say, Fighter 4/WM 7/Cleric 29, or Fighter 4/WM 13/Cleric 23, with no more than 3 Fighter and WM levels pre-epic.

TM Went with Mith's build worked like a champ, way better than my previous cleric.

thanks again everyone.
