I am just looking for some interesting ideas for my 8th level Paladin, what to take for his 9th level Feat, and maybe even what class/PrC to take next.
While there's nothing really "wrong" with him, I'm just wondering if there's maybe a way to take less damage. I seem to be a huge damage sponge. The party Mystic Theurge tends to run out of cleric spells for healing a lot.
Here's some details:
Race: Human(Suel)
Str 18
Dex 10
Con 16
Int 8
Wis 12
Cha 16
Deity: Pholtus(Glory, Good, Inquisition, Knowledge, Law, Purification, Sun; Favored weapon: Quarterstaff(ugh))
Feats: WF Greatsword, Power Attack, Improved Toughness, Extra Smiting
He also became "Dwarf Blooded" through an incident, which allows him to qualify for PrC, Feats, Etc... as if he were a Dwarf.
His AC is currently 20(Plate +1, Ring +1), but I can bump it up to 22 in the next couple levels by Gloves of Dex +2 and upgrading the armor to +2. Still pretty easy to hit.
What I'm wondering, if it's worth multiclassing into something with Charisma synergy like Bard or Sorcerer(and I most likely can't go back to Paladin, which I'd like to continue advancing at least the Smite power and/or Lay on Hands and spells(though he can't cast them very well with the 12 wisdom)), maybe take a cool Heritage feat or something similar for AC boost. The Shield spell would be nice to bump AC up to 24-26, except for that 35% ASF chance.
There's nothing really wrong with him now, I'd just like to have something a little different that works well with Paladin. Other than Core, usable books (with limitations)are Complete Warrior/Divine/Arcane/Adventurer, and some of the Races of the Wild/Stone/Destiny stuff.
I'm just looking for some ideas. Thanks,
