I encountered "lawful stupid" stereotype only on internet, so they should probably rewrite that part. Paladin cannot force his code of honor on other people, he is supposed to act as an *example* to them. That is why he has high charisma (charisma is paladin's #1 ability, in my opinion).LIKES:- He fights reasonably well in comparison with barbarian and fighter (unlike ranger)- Good saves and some imunities (fear, disease....why these?)- That it is not a prestige class- Healing- I'm not really sure if smite evil works with great cleave, but we played that it does- I like the flavor. I believe it takes a certain type of player to play paladin (much like a bard)- MAD. Can't say I like it, but I understand it; and as already pointed out you don't need that high wisdom - I usually start at 12.DISLIKE- Detect evil: either can be abused, or DM will rule it out- More smiting please- Cure disease: does not fit with holy warrior archetype- Pokemount: weirdOf course, the real test of all these classes is how they compare with fighter/cleric or fighter/druid (in case of ranger). That is one of the reasons why I like various immunities and auras and special attacks like smite a lot more than spells and other cleric things.</blockquote>
