The difficulty of using Toughness to simulate it is the result of Toughness being alongside Endurance in the joke feat category.The Paladin has a better skillset as a Feat Master then as a Paladin, The only skill of note that he loses is Sense Motive. He keeps his essential skills of Diplomacy, Concentration, Ride, and Handle Animal.Quit pretending that any class feature is worth a feat. If there was an alternate Barbarian with no Trap Sense, but with 6 bonus feats, would you be defending the class as balanced since each of those levels of Trap Sense was worth a feat? The Paladin is a crummy caster with a mediocre spell list and only half caster level.lolA) The Mount has a Spell Resistance 5 lower, that's it.B) It's two BAB, not 3. It's also insignificant.Just by browsing through my Complete Warrior, allow me to list some Feats that the Paladin could take and their effect.1. Close Quarter Fighting: AOE whenever someone tries a Grapple. If it hits, grapple is avoided.2-3.Extra Smite: 4 more Smites per day4. Improved Toughness: +1 hp/level. Results in a higher hitpoint total then a straight Paladin.5. Power Critical: +4 to Threat Confirms6. Divine Vigor: Use Turn Undead use to increase speed by 10 and grant 2 temp hitpoints per level. Lasts 1 minute per Charisma Bonus.7. Calvary Charger: not going to bother typing it all out, but it's really really unpleasant.8-10. Iron Will, Great Fort, Lightning Reflexies: +2 to all saves.10-13. Whatever I feel likeI lost 2 BAB, a Remove Disease/Week, and 2 4th Level Spells for that. My character has better saves, more hitpoints, more smites, is better at mounted combat, and can generally whomp any straight Paladin.</blockquote>
