The spellscar is for the campaign. As for versatile expertise, I can replace it with Totem Expertise. I suppose I won't be making very many actual weapon attacks. EDIT: Versatile Expertise gives an overall better bonus to hit. I assume this is because it allows the use of the weapon proficiency bonus on the implement. Whereas Totem Expertise does not?

What about Spear Expertise, for + to-hit/charge bonus?

No, you never get proficiency bonuses on an implement attack. VE is fine for this build though since there's not much better you can do if you're using the Alf spear.

Ah, you're right, my mistake.

Thanks for the info. Had a chance to play this character yesterday and it was a lot of fun. I might change out Elk's Fortitude, but everything else seemed to work OK.
Some may question the magic item choices beyond Alfspear. We're limited to only one Uncommon item. Trust me, I would get better stuff if I could.
As for Versatile Expertise... in the character builder VE gives me a +8 to hit. Totem Expertise gives me a +7. Can anyone explain the difference?

Alf spear isn't a totem. You can just use it as an implement if you use totems.
