With psychic blades alone that would be more than a Paladin at 20.35, and that is still not considering EA advantage or secondary cantrip damage.If you consider Elven accuracy now you are looking at 35.3 and if you consider GFB secondary damage on top of that it would be 46.6So to really compare you would need to know how often you will use psychic blades (most of the time you hit?), Elven Accuracy (fairly often?) and GFB secondary damage (occasionally?).   If it is like I estimate in paranthesis, I think you average significantly more DPR than a single class Paladin.That is without using divine smite.  So some rounds the DPR would be worse but I think on average the DPR will be higher that a single class Paladin at 11th level without using divine smite, and when you consider divine smite you have an extra 4th level slot on top of that.I will have plate armor, the shield spell and the ability to resist all damage for an entire round 4 times per day with blessing of the Raven queen at 11th level (albeit at the cost of steady aim) while still having a reaction for shield.  That is pretty good defensively I think.I don't think a Rogue is nearly as good defensively.  Uncanny Dodge works on a single attack only and since it is a reaction you can't combine it with shield.</blockquote>
