Straight Clr is best due to buffing and armor spells. Ftr has extra feats to improve AC.* HP's, a Pal is worse than a Ftr, due to Ftr being able to use a better attribute score for CON. Clr has MUCH more healing than Pal, so Lay on Hands is almost useless in this comparison.* Both can use heavy armor.* Divine Might is not a Paladin-only feat. Why do people continue to connect the two? Divine Might rocks for a Clr/Ftr, and the Ftr actually has the extra feats to spend.So this is what I knew when you said "Clr/Pal makes a good tank."You can see why I pointed out their lack of synergy between the 2 for that intended purpose.Now that that's clear, we return you to our regularly scheduled thread, about melee vs ranged clerics in 3.0/3.5. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
