[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 7515002, member: 59057"] I am still unsure if it is worth taking sorcerer that early. Without warcaster, shield and shield spell can´t be up at the same time. (I allow an eldritch kinght to drop your weapon and cast shield at the same time... but as a paladin your weapon is away then. It also takes away your precious slots for smiting. Booming blade or greenflame blade are not that good if you consider that you delay your second attack and your second chance of smiting. after you have warcaster and can cast booming blade on opportunity attacks it get a lot better. So I think going to level 4 Paladin ist first priority. Oath of vengeance and oath of devotion are both good. I think with your charisma, +5 attack trumps advantage by far. If you really insist on sorcerer, Go up to level 4 in Paladin and branch out then. You will know if going sorcerer all the way will be worth it by then. Fireball is definitely not worth it at that point. It is nice to have, but definitely no game changer. [/QUOTE]
