May I suggest a paladin again?
An Oath of Vengeance Paladin/Hexblade at level 6 with both Vow of Emnity and Curse will crit with p=0.34 per round, each crit doing ~42 damage when smiting (two handed sword, first level slot, too lazy to calculate exactly with fighting style, no GWM).
A Sorcadin with quickened SCAG cantrips can do even more damage on those smite crits.
[edit] sorry, the math is off. You can only use two handed weapons with curse when you invest 3 levels into Hexblade. I got carried away because Great Weapon Fighting combos so beautifully with a crit build. Your sword and board paladin would be reduced to 36 damage in the same scenario. Still a lot for such a tanky character.
