Basic paladin for new players
Very new player friendly
No tomes required
No gear required
No p2p options
Not considering epic destinies
These are not builds for soloing epic elites but should serve to participate in them
Pure builds just to make things less complicated
Basic paladin
A paladin gets good dps, awesome survivability, excellent self-healing and good hp
Not a lot of feats or skills
Human paladin – Two hand fighting
Stats
Strength: 15
Dexterity: 8
Constitution: 16
Wisdom: 12
Intelligence: 8
Charisma: 14
Final breakdown with reasonable gear
Str: 16 +7 levels +8 item + 2 guild buff + 6 enhancement + 6 stance +7 divine might=50 Very conservative and can go much higher
Con: 16 +8 item +2 guild +6 stance = 32
Cha: 15 + 6 item +2 guild +1 enhancement = 24
Reason behind stats
Str – It is your damage and your to hit fairly simple
Dex: not needed
Con: Hit points hit points hit points. While you will never hear me say con is not a dump stat you will hear me say Hp are not a dump stat.
Wis: gets you will saves, spell points and the ability to cast your spells – you need at least a 14 wisdom with gear to cast your level 4 spells
Int: skill points
Cha: makes your intimidate and use magical device more effective, gives you divine might and boosts your saves
Increase Str at every 4 levels
Saves at level 28
Fortitude: 12 base + 11 con mod +6 item+3 stance +7 cha= 38
Reflex: 6 base + 6 dex mod + 6 item 3 stance = 28
Will: 6 base +-1 wis +6 item +3 stance = 21
Hit points
280 from paladin +25 from heroic durability +280 con mod +30 false life + 20%(107) = 642 can go much higher with epic destinies
