[QUOTE="doggywoggy, post: 4796230, member: 83752"] What's wrong with being a Defendery-Striker? Or, Strikery-Defender. As for my being immature for wanting this--guilty as charged! That said, I think if Wotc didn't want Paladins to dual-strike they wouldn't have invented the Two-Bladed Warrior feat. I am merely taking advantage of that. Also, is it equally immature to have chosen War domain for my 3.5 dwarven cleric? Melee is fun. Is having fun wrong? I thought that was the whole point.
