Buildsin Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteousare made up of your Class Features, Abilities, Ability Scores, Feats, Spells and your Weapons, Armor and Skills. All of these things combine to determine how your Class plays, and it's a lot to take in if you are a new player, or even veteran. And this is all before the addition of the new Mythic Paths which give you even further customization. (When you complete questThe Burning City andA Blow from the Sky, you will get 1 level ofMythic Heroclass.)
Class Builds are made up of whatAttributes to begin the game with, what Raceto play, along with what Classes and Archetypes to choose. Beyond that are comprehensivetables of what Abilities you unlockat each Archetype Level,and what Feats to take to optimize these Builds. Final "unbuffed" BAB is even listed so you can see how many Attacks each Build gets at level 20.
Companion Builds
All Companions have a Class, and itis important to have a complete Party formation.It's not recommended to Multiclass, and turn Auto Leveling up for your Companions, to only manage their equipment. You can achieve better control by turning on turn-based combat when it's necessary.

Cavalier Build: How to / Class Guide
The Cavalier Class is one of the new Classes. In this Guide you’ll learn not only how to play the Cavalier Class, but also what the differences are between the Cavalier Archetypes: Beast Rider, Cavalier of the Paw, Disciple of the Pike, Fearsome Leader, Gendarme, Knight of the Wall, and Standard Bearer.
There will of course be tips about which Abilities, Skills and Feats to take, along with some suggestions about how to play the Class effectively (including how Mounted Combat Works in Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous). This will not be a copy of the Pathfinder Handbook, and I will attempt to summarize things (where applicable) to make it easier to understand, because I feel that a big part of the reason people need Guides for Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, is that it can be a bit overwhelming to sift through this on your own.
