What would be better for this build?

[moritheil]

Your caster level is 2x your Chameleon level. So yes, you end up with CL 20 at 15 HD. (Bloodline levels, GO!)

Heh. I only ever run Chameleon with bloodline, but I didn't see it in your original proposal, so I was curious.

Where was Snowflake Wardance from again and what does it do?

It's from Frostburn. Basically, it allows to spend one use of bardic music as a free action to gain +cha to hit with a slashing weapon for a number of rounds equal to your ranks in perform(dance). Limited to light armor, no shield, only one weapon and/or only one handed weapon -- the wording is something like "you add your Charisma modifier to your attack rolls with any slashing melee weapon you wield in one hand". Oh, and you're fatigued for ten minutes afterward.

It's not that great until you combine it with the ability to substitute Perform (dance) for things like saves and other skill checks.

I just found this build on the CharOp forums:

Bard 7 / Paladin 2 / Spellsword 1 / Sublime Chord 2 / Sacred Exorcist 8

- 9th level spells, either take Snowflake Wardance, Divine Might, TWF and Somatic Weaponry - ends up with boat loads of attacks, all with Cha added to attack and damage rolls, or go for the traditional Power Attack chain of feats.

Might be something to look at.

I just found this build on the CharOp forums:

Isn't Sacred Exorcist required to be Lawful?

EDIT: Oh, I see, unlike the builds above, it relies on a convenient alignment change.

Pssst, every build with Bard + Paladin relies on a convenient alignment change. And that's all of them.

To be more precise, a convenient alignment change and no feat involved that reconciles the two classes of bard and paladin. It's fine mechanically, of course.

In every build in this thread, the alignment change must precede the feat.
