Talk:Paladin

• The Everburning Credo

• This is my Creed, and I heed it.
• I heed the signs that I must act.
• I heed the warning tingle on the back of my neck.
• I heed the outrage, that what I see must end, and now.
• I heed the clarity as righteousness seizes me.
• I heed my hot breath, like fire, and my heart full of thunder.
• I heed the edge to my senses.
• I heed the exultant battlecry from my own lips.
• I heed my singular vision, that I see only the deserving.
• I heed the strength in my hands, for it is not my strength, only Gods.
• My Creed will triumph as long as God Wills It, and I have strength.
• My Creed sustains me, a torch against my foes.
• My Creed grants the Armor Of Contempt, against all offenders.
• Ever I burn, a torch of God's Will, my pain feeding my light.
• Everburn, say I. Everburn.
• This is my Creed, and I heed it.

Paladin Example Build

(Probably not actually a legal build; needs reviewed; keeping it here in case we get around to building a viable sample build later, so we can steal ideas from this one)

Human, base stats: Str 16, Dex 10, Con 14, int 14, Wis 8, Chr 18.

Example Feats

1st

Dodge, Exotic Weapon Proficiency: War Flail. Grab some armor class and a solid one-hander with trip.

3rd

Power Attack. Sprinkle power attack on top of Smites for extra crunch!

5th

Combat Expertise. You're good at fighting defensively.

7th

Improved Trip. Your weapon has the trip keyword, so why not? :)

9th

Felling Smash. Oh, yeah, put them on the ground. Easiest way to get +4 on melee attacks there is.

11th

Greater Trip. Knock them down and clobber them on the way down. This works awesome with Felling Smash!

13th

Fearless Aura. Oh, yeah, this is REALLY freakin' awesome.

15th

Shield Focus. More armor class, man!

17th

Combat Reflexes. Yeah, this is just awesome.

19th

Weapon Focus, War Flail. Get even better to-hits.
