Hey 2 quick questions, do paladins follow the Fighter BaB (base attack bonus) of +1 per level? (at work so can't check my phb)

Also anyone with the know-how could you run through the base classes that follow the +1 per level? (besides fighter and barbarian, so in truth the non-core book base classes)

Thanks in advance! :D

First off, you can see information about core classes here:

http://www.d20srd.org/indexes/classes.htm

Barbarian, Fighter, Ranger and Paladin are the classes with full BAB in PHB. Outside core there are Duskblade, Knight, Swashbuckler, Crusader, Warblade, Hexblade, Samurai.

Paladins have a full 1:1 Base ATtack Bonus Progression.

Other classes with that progression include the Barbarian, Fighter, and Ranger. Also note the Samurai, Swashbuckler, Hexblade, Knight, and Duskblade.

there are 3 categories
1. fighter = mostly no magic the tank if you will =d12 or 10 = full bab I.E. fighter barbarian ranger and paly (and some others)
2. intermediate = usually aren’t tanks cant use big armor and normally have spells or stealth = d8 and d6 hd = druid cleric rouge ... = medium Bab
3.and finally the mage= almost completely magic centered no armor really and vary low hp = d4 = low BAB =sorcerer and wizard.....
hope this help if not please say so
