[QUOTE="Nareau, post: 903374, member: 969"] I'm amazed to see how many people are complaining about how low they think these stats are. They're the equivalent of a 30-point buy! The game was designed for a 25-point buy. At any rate, I throw my coin in with Kesh. Sorry to repeat everything that's already been said. STR 14 DEX 10 CON 13 INT 8 WIS 12 CHA 17 Str is important, but not the most important. Don't much need the Dex boost, as your heavy armor will slightly nerf it anyways. The Con can be boosted at 8th, giving you the retro hp. You can be pretty dumb, and get away with it. The skills may hurt, but humans can take it. Besides, depending on the campaign, DM, and style of play, there's a decent chance you won't see many of the Paladin's skills being checked anyways. Wis should be high enough that you can eventually get those 4th level spells with a cheapo item. And of course, you'll want the Cha for all the goodies: Lay on Hands, Saves, Smite Evil, Turn Undead. Boost it at 4th level. Plus, you might want to consider taking Leadership down the line, especially if your mount isn't doing you much good (ie, you're dungeon crawling). Good luck. Let us know how it works out. Spider [/QUOTE]
