After browsing the forums searching for answers I found out that the Antipaladin could do the following:

Cast Vampiric Touch and hold the charge.
Hit the Paladin with a gauntlet (unarmed attack) next round.
Discharge the Vampiric Touch, because the attack touched something living.
Then use Crusader's Fist and deliver Touch of Corruption as a swift action.
Deal smite damage.
Gain all of the damage combined as temporary hit points (because of the spell's legacy 3.5 description.)

Of course, the damage could be further improved by the gauntlet's special abilities.

Hi, I was reading about Antipaladin for an evildoer adversary and I've become curious about how some abilities correlate.

Situation: Antipaladin casts Vampiric Touch, she decides to hold the charge, then proceeds to Smite Good an unfortunate Paladin, moves to him on the next turn and then touches that Paladin with Touch of Corruption.

Question 1: Will that discharge the Vampiric Touch, thus dealing the spell damage plus Touch of Corruption damage, along with the Smite Good damage (and a cruelty on top of it)?

Question 2: What will it do with the Vampiric Touch's temporary hit point gain? Will the Anitpaladin only gain the spell's damage or will she add all of the damage dealt together and gain that many hit points?

Question 3: Can she also use a Gauntlet to deliver this melee touch attack (gaining the enhancement bonus to attack and damage and possibly a stored spell hit)? If that is true, then what is the use of the Crusader's Fist feat? Moreover, if the Gauntlet was Conductive, could she spend 2 additional Touch of Corruption uses to deliver it once again?
