Howdy
To those experienced PVP and PVE players:
Given a 26 Warpriest / 4 Dwarven Defender build, should I still invest in taking (SF Abjuration + Arcane Defense Abjuration) for 30 CL?
I ask this because Warpriest (starting at level 21) gives + 3 CL, so if I don't take AD Abjuration I would still land at 29 CL.
Should I spend two feats to get that extra milage to 30?
Thanks!

While DD requires only 1 feat, it's still a feat spent. Couple that with a non-human race it adds up.
The usual warpriest build takes advantage of Divine Synergy, so it has to take 3 feats (i.e. power attack, divine shield, divine might). You're theoretically already at 2 of 3 going DD.
Let me ask this: what feat are you taking at DD level 4?

I didn't go down the shotgun style (Divine shield/might), i'm more of a turn/level or hour/level wards kind of guy. (I know its not optimal).
I'm thinking taking Iron Stance at DD level 1 and mounting resistance at level 4
This is what I have so far

I'm happy with it, but I'm considering changing Epic Will at level 27 and wondering wheather I should take SF abjuration for arcane defense in order to get to that 30 CL dispel defense

Frankly, I say dump lv 4 DD. Mounting Resistance 1 is not hugely noticeable. It stacks with Regenerate but I personally wouldn't go that route.
In fact, if you go Monkey Grip I would just go 27 cleric/3 DD. I would try and slot in the Disarm line of feats or at least Knockdown.
