Spellcasting:
Divine (Wisdom based, armor related chance of spell failure is ignored). Must have a Wisdom score of 10 + the spell’s level to cast a
spell.
Paladins receive bonus spells based on their Wisdom ability modifier. A paladin with Wisdom 11 has a modifer of 0 and gets no bonus spells, so level 1 spells won't become available until class level 6. A paladin with Wisdom 12 or higher will receive bonus level 1 spells starting at class level 4. Wisdom 14 or higher will grant bonus level 2 spells starting at class level 8, and so on.
|
Notes:
Improved critical (whip) can be taken as epic paladin bonus feat (most likely a bug).
A single level of paladin is used in some charisma-based bard and sorcerer character builds. In addition to improving all saving throws with Divine Grace, the paladin's weapon and armor proficiencies can be helpful. Sorcerers sometimes take the paladin level very late in order to maximize the Discipline skill as it is a cross class skill for sorcerers. |

Description:
Paladins take their adventures seriously, and even a mundane mission is, in the heart of the paladin, a personal test - an opportunity to demonstrate bravery, to learn tactics, and to do good in the world. Divine power protects these warriors of virtue, warding off harm, protecting them from disease, healing them and their allies, and guarding against fear. Divine power also guides their sword arms, making them among the most effective warriors against undead and evil outsiders. Many of the paladin's special abilities also benefit from a high Charisma score.
