[QUOTE="xynthoros, post: 6487259, member: 6788545"] Depends on whether the features you would gain at level 8 from the new class equals or exceeds the benefit you would gain from the additional level of paladin. I would go rogue for the full blackguard feel. I miss sneak attack on a blackguard, and if you go assassin, you get poison stuff too. I don't know how often you will be getting surprise, but auto-critting like that is pretty fun. With only seven levels as oathbreaker you will be getting the ability to create identities and perfectly mimic other people's speach, writing and behavior, four skills with double proficiency, and 7d6 sneak attack. Uncanny dodge, evasion, and the ability to never get below a 10 on any skill in which you are trained. Cunning action, expertise, and Assassinate alone can make a three level dip into rogue worth it, then 10 levels of warlock gets you 5th level spells and the 10th level pact ability. Personally IMHO, feats/ability ups get a bit overrated. [/QUOTE]
