Reroll Character

[Davor]

Alright, so, it's looking like my poor halfling Rogue/Ranger just met an untimely end by being turned into a squirrel, and we don't have any spellcasters that can cast Dispel Magic in the group.

So, I'm looking for critique on my next character, a Paladin of Shelyn.

For the Race, I'm looking at Half-Elf, but Rakshasa-Spawn Tiefling is really high up there as well.

We're 7th level, so I'll probably be looking at:

Weapon Focus: Glaive
Combat Reflexes
Power Attack
Unsanctioned Knowledge

as my feats. I'll be taking the Hospitaler and Sacred Servant archetypes (my DM let's them stack), and will probably end up taking the Charm domain, though the Luck domain would be pretty useful, too. Adding a few bard spells to my list will be nice, too (Vanish, Mirror Image, Haste, and either Dimension Door or Hold Monster).

Balance will be on Strength and Charisma attribute-wise. Any other suggestions?

I recommend picking up nimble moves at a point so you can 5 foot step back in difficult terrain. Fancy footwork around terrain feels sort of right for sheyln as well.

I like it. I'll probably replace Power Attack with it (yeah, I know it's vital for a two-hander build, but... I didn't think it really fit anyways).

Also, guess who just found the Love Subdomain >_>

Unless your not the only melee character in the group reach weapon is not a good idea. With out a front line blocker reach weapons realy suffer.

Aasimar. That is all. :-p

I'm not the only melee character in the group :D

And yeah, Aasimar would be nice, but there aren't written conversion rules to make them a standard race as far as power is concerned.

The more I think about it, the more I like half-elf. We'll see if anything changes.

If your going for reach with combat reflex a guisarme trip build is nice. Combat expertise / improved trip / greater trip.

And if you can find a way to someone cast enlarge person on you its even better, 20ft reach! I would keep power attack insted of nimble moves. Dificult terrein is not that frequent but you can always use power attack with a 2hander.

On a side note, dispel magic scrolls are really easy to buy. Dont give up on your halfling yet.
