FAQ Cleric (Domains, Gods & Spells)

I had to search for a long time for this stuff and some of that information was
incorrect so I thought I would post a complete reference here.

CLERICS:
Divine spell casters that rely mostly on WISDOM. Able to wear heavy armor
and use shields as well as use a decent selection of weapons. Clerics benefit
from high CHARISMA for a variety of spells and abilities. A high STRENGTH
and CONSTITUTION will allow your cleric to be effective in combat.

Most clerics don't consider a high DEXTERITY useful due to the maximum AC
benefit while using heavy armors. INTELLECT is also not very important due
to the lack of skills available.

Good aligned clerics can spontaneously exchange memorized spells for healing
spells of equal level while evil clerics can use harmful spells in the same manner.
Neutral clerics have to choose between spontaneous heal/harm on character
creation. (shift click a memorized spell on the radical to use this ability)

from the online SRD

Cleric Spells

Cleric Domains

And, no, not all of the spells are in the game.

 

"-Garl Glittergold: NG, domains: good, protection, trickery battleaxe"

For some reason, when I try to make a cleric of Garl, I get the option of domains: Good, Protection and Travel (instead of trickery). Don't know if this is only my machine/install or a bug. I checked up with my rulebooks on seeing that, as I recalled it was supposed to be trickery.

And pretty much agree, a party of only clerics should be able to complete this game with little to no problems.

 

Yeah, I just checked this out. The description STATES trickery but GIVES only travel as
an option.. I wonder if you could be fixed through mods, I guess that is bug #27,345.
:stoned:

 

Sound Burst deals 1d8 damage and also forces a Fortitude save (not sure of the DC) or the target is stunned.

 

Save DC should be the normal, 10 + level of spell (2) +wisdom bonus (wis 18 = +4)

 

in ToEE, clerics of Wee Jas, even the LN ones, can't spontaneously cast cure spells... [EDIT: I was wrong on this one; in the character creation process, if you select a neutral deity (including Wee Jas), you get to choose if you channel positive or negative energy... I guess this might be conditional on you being neutral as well, haven't checked

 

The gods alignment desides this more than the character alignment. Short summarisation, good god = cure/turn, evil god = inflict/rebuke, a neutral god with a neutral follower allows the follower to choose cure or inflict, and though it actually says nothing about it a good or evil cleric of a neutral god should probablly pick cure or inflict as fitting their alignment.

Also some specific examples is actually mentioned for Wee Jass that can only take inflict (fitting for a death god), as Cuthbert and non-evil clerics of Obad-hai must use cure. (this actually seems to enforce that evil follower of neutral god must pick inflict, as it specifies non-evil must take cure with Obad-hai).


PS: On a slightly unrelated note, but I am curious about finding out more about Greyhawk setting, and was wondering if there existed a 3rd edition (3.0/3.5) campaign setting book for it ? Only heard some rumors there was a sword and sorcery book or some such named gazetter ?

 

The main sourcebook you might want to find is the Living Greyhawk Gazeteer. Its out of print though.

[You can find it here... no image though.]

D&D 3rd edition has greyhawk as its default camapaign setting. That's why the gods you get in the Player's Handbook are all Greyhawk gods. It is a great campaign setting, but it was handed over to RPGA and made into a 'living', worldwide campaign, so in a sense there is no longer a cannon development of the greyhawk storyline... except for those who are members of the RPGA...

Honestly thats bad. I prefer everything GH related that is from before the GH wars period (basically nearly everything published before 2nd edition came out).

 

Thank you, I will look out for it!

 

Exact.
Tho, i think i've seen a 3º E book for Greyhawk setting, or at least a special campaign book. I'll look for them.

 

Yes it is a 120 page Living greyhawk gazeteer. It is out of print though, I fear. Very good rulebook. For the ToEE, though what you'd really want is the 1983 boxed set, describing greyhawk pre-wars...

I guess both can be found in used bookstores on the web...

 

Indeed, i would like to have it.
Unfortunately, boxes are unheard over here. I've only seen one box, more than 10 years ago, in a Hobby shop, it was the Darksun setting IIRC...

A good friend of mine have a small adventure, but it contains lots of information on charcters, equipment and culture from Greyhawk. Very nice stuff.

 

I got most of my Out of Print stuff when still living in Brazil. It is possible to buy it online and have it sent to you. Might be a bit costly though... Can't recall where I bought them, now that I think of it. Maybe bookfinder.com.
