I took resil: wisdom on my barb

[Kurald Galain]

He was 18 str 8 wis, giving him a -1 wisdom save
After failing a few too many wisdom saves against dominate, I respec'd him to

16 str 10 wis with resil: wisdom feat.

Okay, so you actually did two things.

One, you took the Resilient feat. This is a good idea.
Two, you lowered your strength to increase your wisdom. This is what feels terrible (AND note that the first step had a MUCH greater impact on your wisdom save!)

The -2 str was *noticable.* Taking a hit to a main stat is awful. I'm a barb! I use str literally every turn.

Yep. So statistically speaking, keep the feat AND restore your strength.
