So what do you think of my poor mans paladin?
Believers hands gives you lay on hands at half strength.
Where are you getting LoH from?
From the Believer's Hands feat at 1st level. That feat gives him one usage of Lay On Hands per day, with an effective paladin level of half his character level (minimum 1). The only problem I see is that the Lay On Hands ability does not seem to work for a character with a paladin level less than 2 since it would heal 0d6 hit points at 1st level.
1/2 your level is a minimum of 1, seeing as you still have a level. There are no level 0 Paladins.
Yeah it seems it's 1d6 till level 8.
But that's more healing than most fighters do.
It wouldn't be the first time a Feat has allowed someone to snag an ability earlier than they should be able to, otherwise.
I still meet the Prequisites at first level where I have the bonus feat to use.
And by the end i have 15 uses a day at 5d6 so I'm ok with that.
While its nice to be able to LoH in battle as a swift action. Your LoH will be far behind and not healing for that much. You can invest the feats other places and still roleplay him like a paladin.
I could but i like the idea of a fighter healing him self and most of the time i won't be using my swift actions for anything else.

If you like the idea of healing then why not chug potions by taking drunken brute barbarian? Rage that is extended by booze and can chug as a move without provoking. You can heal with cure potions and use other pots as a swift action. Enlarge, bark skin, blur, cats grace, shield of faith, protection from evil, haste, good hope. The list goes on and on.
Find a race to get a SLA that counts as an arcane spell and pick up Arcane Strike. A free damage boost every round that will scale over time.

Well this is a figher build for one.
If you're gonna do it, take Fey Foundling to add a little extra oomph to your LoH. It increases their effectiveness by 56%.
If it is not in the core books it's not an option.
So what core book is fey foundling in?
Sorry that's not the core books sadly.
Ditch vital strike and do full-round attacks, vital strike does less damage as your levels progress because it only focuses on weapon damage. Going the spring attack route gets you the extra mobility needed for melee.

Unless mythic vital strike & power attack are factored in.
To be fair you didn't mention the use of Mythic and that drastically changes most things.
Anyway I'm not particularly seeing the benefit of trading out a good portion of your feats for Lay on Hands. Swift action healing is handy, but you lose so much of what makes it good here due to the lack of Mercy to remove status effects on yourself and it functioning at half capacity on top of that. Besides doing this as a thought experiment, I gotta say I don't know why you would do this over just being a Paladin.
He wants the mutagen from the fighter archetype I believe.
Manly because i don't have to be a paladin. If i need a combat feat i just take it on the fly and my damage isn't as situational as a paladin is.
The more you roll the likelier it is that one of your attacks is a critical threat, some of these attacks can be combat maneuvers, and you can target other enemies. Mythic vital strike is something nice, but at that point critical feats such as stagger, stun, or bleeding would be better in conjunction with a keen/improved critical greatsword.
