Strength Build Paladin Multiclass

Unread post by PaulImposteur »

Hey guys, my character Rasheeq is a really fun character and just hit level 15.
He's a Paladin (Cavalier), with a focus on improved knockdown, and all the charge feats. He uses improved power attack and northerner hewing to up his damage a lot.

His base stats are such
STR 21 (plan to max)
DEX 10 (Item to compensate)
CON 11 (Buff)
INT 13
WIS 14 (Ring for spells)
CHA 8 (Dumped, non EDM build as Cavalier)

Any multiclass recommendations? I was thinking of just going straight Paladin, but I don't have many levels left to play with. So now is a good time to looking into alternatives.

I'm not too great at finding synergies though, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Go pure. That gives you most epic feats, meaning you can get like 32 base strength. With paladin buffs, that's 40 strength. Going to be hard to resist that knockdown!

You can also add a pinch of MaA (5) if that suits your taste and build, that'll net you access to tumble, heavy armor optimization, shield block +1 and a bit more will save for the cost of practiced spellcaster feat and 1 epic feat (but you get a bonus feat at MaA 5).

Four levels of Fighter and a feat spent on Practised Spellcaster? You get free towershields, and potentially 3 fighter bonus feats spent on whatever your character might be missing. It might bring multiclassing experience penalty though.
