[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 3175497, member: 7006"] GwydapLlew & stonegod... the only possible way I could see possibly getting into Inquistor at 6th level is by using the [URL=http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/variantCharacterClasses.htm#fighter]Unearthed Arcana Fighter Variant[/URL] that swaps out bonus fighter feats for Sneak Attack. So by taking Paladin 4 / Fighter 1 (or indeed any combination of paladin and fighter) would qualify you for the prestige class. You'd have +5 BAB, turn undead ability, sneak attack ability, Power Attack, and can take the right amount of skills. The biggest downside of course is the extreme lack of skills, since swapping bonus feats for sneak attack is the only thing that changes the fighter with this variant. So you'd still only get 2+Int mod in skills for any fighter levels you take. But you do end up being just a bit better in combat because your BAB will be a point higher, and you'll have an extra d10 for HP rather than d6. If stonegod was to allow this fighter variant, I personally would suggest either doing paladin 4 / fighter 1 (to get that first 1d6 in sneak attack), or do paladin 2 / fighter 3 (and get the 2d6 worth of sneak attack plus avoid multi-classing penalties). There's no real point in taking only 2 levels in fighter, because you no longer get anything special at 2nd level since sneak attack is every-other-level, and the normal bonus fighter feat is now gone. You can then use your sixth level for the entry into Shadowbane Inquistor. [/QUOTE]
