Message: <blockquote data-quote="rowport" data-source="post: 2115355" data-attributes="member: 9729">I had similar problems building a Ninja/Cleric as you are facing for Paladin/Rogue.  The basic problem is the need for too many decent ability scores with limited points; the secondary problem is the conflict between heavy armor and DEX stats.  My suggestion is: choose one of two paths, and stick to it, not walking the fine line between (i.e. 'medium armor').1. Heavy Armor, decent STR, big sword with Power Attack (cannot use with light weapon)-> Shadowbane Inquisitor.  More Paladin than Rogue.  Focus on CHA skills and smite, possibly Open Lock & Disable Device, but not 'sneaky' DEX skills.2. Light Armor, high DEX, low STR, light weapon with Weapon Finesse.  More Rogue than Paladin.  Focus on DEX and CHA skills.  I am not sure about a PrC for this path- maybe Black Flame Zealot from Complete Divine?</blockquote>
