Saves on new char
I just made a character with the following stats:
STR 9
Dex 10
Con 10
Int: 14
Wis: 10
Cha: 21
I took gift of Cha, Gift of +2 Saves. Chose background Natural Leader, and took feat 'Luck of Heroes'.
At level 3 my saves are:
Fort: 3
Reflex: 3
Will: 6
Is that right?
Thanks.

Yep, looks right.
Remember that natural leader gives -1 fort and -1 reflex

Re: Saves on new char
Ok. Just thought +2 (gift of saves) + 1 (Luck of Heroes) - 1 (natural Leader) would still balance out to at least a +2. That means my Fort and Reflex saves are each a 1 at level 3 with neither having a negative stat?

Re: Saves on new char
Yea, your base save in both of them is 1 at this point since they're both low saves for a sorcerer. A low save goes up by 1 for each three levels you take in the class, so at level 20 your base fort and reflex save will be 6 if you're still a pure sorcerer (8 total, plus your spellcraft bonus against spells for something like an extra +6 or +7 vs spells).

Re: Saves on new char
Guess maybe its not worth taking 1 extra point of CHA for the save penalties and -1 Con (Natural Leader)?

Not unless you have a specific reason for needing every single point of CHA you can get at any cost.
