You take polearm master first, it will actually be more useful for you than the other two feats at lower levels.You sure can, since your OA still uses your polearm. That assumes a reach weapon and increased range for BB, either by spell sniper feat or by using the distant metamagic option. Mearl's tweet was before the release of SCAG, and hence before there were any spells that used actual weapons with their attacks, plus Mearls gives advice on how he would houserule in his home games, not official explanations on the rules. And Crawford's answer just says that the OA from polearm master must use the polearm, which BB does, assuming your BB has a reach of 10 feet (spell sniper in this case). Perfectly legit. It is known. Fair enough. Imo a feat that works well with the rest of the build and allows you to pull off a good combo is worth having one stat at 18 insead of 20. Besides, most paladin builds will still rely heavily on 2 feats at least (eg vengeance relies on resilient con and GWM, oathbreakers rely on polearm master and sentinel, etc), so if having both str/dex and cha at 20 was that important (not saying that it is not important, but some feats are far more worth it), then human variant wold be hands down the best choice by far. Still, as I said, that is just my opinion. Is your build using a polearm or is it S&B?Edit: Oh nvm, you use a lance.I see. So you say it is mainly because of aura of warding. Good point. Though mounts and mounted combatabt is too much of a situational feat (DM and campaign dependent imo) to rely a build on it in general. Still it could work with my second thought, which is str based and uses a polearm. Though that way you have only 2 ASIs left and you have 16 in str and cha.</blockquote>
