| #1DelandelApr 17, 2008 23:55:53 | I'm making a 16th level character for a campaign and would like to play a paladin who uses mounted combat. It seems the two most popular ways of going about that would be to either 1) go pure paladin 16 2) go paladin 8/cavalier8. It seems like if I go paladin 16, I gain a more powerful lay on hands (nice), more smites (nice), remove disease (meh), and more spells (nice). As paladin 8 / cavalier 8 I get more damage on mounted charges, and later in the campaign I'd pick up unstoppable charge. Any advice on which way I should go? |

I got to the point where I started just adding +1d6 or +2d6 for every thing that doubled the multiplier of charge damage, depending on what it was. |
