A Paladin Hellknight


Advice


I've been working on an NPC Aasimar Paladin who goes into the Hellknights. The order is sorted already, as I already revealed to my players that the Knights from the Order of the Godclaw(plus its the only think that'd make sense).

However, I'm not sure when I should transition from Paladin levels to Hellknight levels from an optimization standpoint. I'm building them to level 15, and I was initially thinking I could leave Paladin at level 12 and pick up 3 levels of Hellknight for the domain(Glory since it fits with her god). However I can't help but feel there'd be a better alternative to split levels. Of course I could also leave Paladin at level 5 for 10 Hellknight levels for the fire immunity... But I'm not sure it's worth it.

Anyone got any advice for Paladin/Hellknights?

If you're building to 15 I would take hellknight to 4. That way you get the Paladin ability to share smites and your second use of Smite Chaos out of the Hellknight class.
