That was after maxing PI at 6 so they could roll in with skill 21* in both the healing spells... and not much else spellwise.


* The Player who did this went 6 and 8 character points for skill 20 in Minor and Major Healing at chargen with his first Cleric. His second Cleric went the full 20 points into these spells (8 and 12) for the 21. He found rolling at 11 was just a scooch too hard, whereas 12 was 'doable'.

Ditto... I've never seen a two Cleric party and I've yet to see a Holy Warrior (or even a Cleric) with Faith Healing.

Is there *any* legal way to get healing on any other character, including stuff from DFMI?
Aside from Esoteric Medicine (Druidic or Chi)? Alli... err... Hirelings.

Holy Warriors can take Faith Healing, but Druids are limited to Esoteric Medicine only. Which is why I house ruled in a variant of Faith healing for them (it requires an Esoteric Medicine check and takes as much time as EsMed).
