I like clubs or maces plus shield for a cleric plus a crossbow for ranged piercing damage. Keep a blade on hand for blunt-resistant foes.

Darkfire and greater magic weapon are a great spell combo when you get up levels. You can choose whichever weapon type you want and still always have decent magic bonuses.

I would skip weapon-oriented feats if your character is going to be a second-tier melee type. Focusing on spell-feats will benefit a caster more. I have found extend spell feat, in particular, useful to give buffs and AoE spells longevity.


I second taking zen-archery to compliment the point-blank shot and get out of the minus-hole of an 8 dex.

I just finished the expansions with a Cleric/Mage. I considered going for 4 levels of fighter for the extra BAB, Feats, and Weapon Specilization, but in the end did just fine focusing on a supportive spellcaster, who could fight real well after a few buffs. I used up every single one of my quick-slots and needed more! Great fun to play
