[QUOTE="Ridley's Cohort, post: 1576735, member: 545"] As someone who has played paladins, from a pure powergrubbing POV there is virtually nothing that a midlevel paladin/cleric can do that fighter/cleric could not do better. The paladin class just does not multiclass easily with anything except a level or two of fighter. (It can be done, but it takes a lot of clever minmaxing to work well.) If you are going to go stick to the front line, your offense will be pathetic unless you get Divine Might. The paladin/cleric is a viable [b]Defense![/b] themed character. Your HPs, AC, and saves will be very good, and can be further boosted by spells. Consider picking up Combat Expertise (if stats allow) to boost the AC to absurd levels. Divine Vigor from CW is also a good choice. If you want to go outside the box, I like the idea of paladin/ranger or paladin/rogue. But neither would make a particularly good frontliner. [/QUOTE]
