Hello gamers,
I would like to build a paladin to use a maul/large hammer with reach abilities to smite enemy. Could trip ability fit in the weapon or do I need to pick up improved trip feat?
with this concept be worthless.
What I want to do is where, I can smite or sunder effects. i want to hit the enemy from 5 to 15' concept?
or should forget trying this concept.
I want to run a paladin with exotic twist from the basic paladin. i just don't want to run a simple build paladin.
This paladin will be a female.
Keep in mind i want to role this paladin in PFS.
I have 20 point buy with 2 traits.
Hrm... Consider a Dwarf for the Dwarven Longhammer (blunt weapon with reach, as a dwarf you should be proficient with it so you don't need to burn a feat)? And if you're really wanting to get away from the stereotypical paladin, take a look at the conveniently place Dwarf archetype of Stonelord. Instead of Smite Evil, you get Stonestrike, which lets you bypass hardness (which I assume helps with Sundering items) as well as any combat maneuver checks (for tripping as well).
Though I'm not exactly sure what is and isn't PFS legal, this is the first idea to instantly come to mind. Sorry if none of this is available.

This would mean for me to be the dwarf, which I don't want to be.
If the long-hammer can not work for me, what would be another type of weapon.
i don't think there is a weapon sub pass 20x4 modifier like x5?
lucerne hammer maybe?
There's the Bec de Corbin as well, with the bonus of Bludgeoning or Piercing damage and a +2 CMB to sunder - though it does less damage to the Lucerne Hammer.

Use a lucern hammer. It has reach and is a martial weapon 1d12x3. There are no non exotic weapons that have a x4 crit multiplier. X4crit multipliers make a weapon exotic.
The only way I know of to increase a weapons crit multiplier is to be a Kensai or be A mythic champion.
You really don't need a higher crit multiplier as A Paladin. Use your smite. Buy the extra smite feat at 3rd level. As soon as you can afford it put holy on your weapon then add axiomatic with your paladin ability to enchant your weapon. That is 1d12x3+4d6.
There are also. Bracers that increase your level for smiting by four levels. If you are going for a reach build also consider lunge and combat patrol.
