However, I think it needs a higher bonus. You should already have a +1 weapon at 5th level. At 8th it beings to be customizeable, but the bonus available never competes with what you can afford, or gets much better than a GMW spell. It's nice at level 17 to have a Brilliant Energy weapon for free, I guess, but otherwise unexciting.

That is exactly why you can choose to add abilities rather than just rely on straight bonuses. You could add flaming to your weapon at 5th level. These bonuses do not stack with the weapon, but if the weapon is just +1, this ability would make it +1 flaming.

We've been discussing some changes to the ability in the Thoughts on Paladins thread, as well as other class features.
