Basically you want lots and lots of supremely useful feats in exchange for something that most characters (even those with exceptional mounted combat ability) would get minimal use out of?I'd also suggest you take a look at Unearthed Arcana (the expansion one, not monte cook's thing) - it has good examples of class ability swaps.On the simplest level, I'd say an animal companion like a druid instead of a mount would be just fine. You gain it at level 5, but count your full levels towards it.Perhaps a domain ability? like the protection domain ability where you can boost someone's saves? Or the strength domain?I'd say two feats (gained at levels 5 and perhaps 10?) would also work.Simply put - the paladin's mount is not that great an ability, and therefore whatever you get back for it is not going to be that great an ability.</blockquote>
