Paladin Spells

[VanRichten]

Just off hand does anyone know how many spells per day an 8th Level Paladin with a 12 Wisdom would have?

Also does anyone know any good spells I should pick for my paladin?

So far I have the following:

Divine Sacrfice, Cure Light Wounds, and Divine Favor.

Two first-level spells. I gather bless weapon is quite a good spell for paladins.

Btw there's a feat in Complete Champion (I think) that lets paladins cast most of their spells as swift actions.

It is in there, it lets you cast all standard action paladin spells as swift actions (and with no adjustment to spell level). I think the name is Battle Blessings.

There are many excellent paladin spells in the splatbooks, most of which are collected in the Spell Compendium. My favorite level 1 Pal spell from there is Rhino's Rush -- swift action, lets your charge attack do x2 damage. Devastating if used with Spiritual Charge on your mount or if using the Charging Smite variant from PH2.

Another great Pal spell from there is at level 3, Find the Gap. Lasts round/level, standard action to cast. Your first attack each round is against touch AC.
