Thanks to Marcus Tarek, a most unruly comrade in arms, for suggesting the concept. He should be able to dispel almost anything with his Holy Sword spell and his buffs will be well nigh undispellable (Mordenkainen's excepted, of course).

He will be able to cast True Strike and Belagorn's Horn. Against evil he will smite smite smite (3x3) them.

And with his UMD he can use any scroll or magic item in the game.

If you drop Divine Might, you can take extend spell, which is dead useful for extended Divine Favor and Aid.

Good hunting.

instead of 1 Sorc and 1 Rogue how about just... bard?

Seems like that has more of an edge to it.

Well, first that requires an alignment shift and I don't build to alignment shifts.

Second, true strike.

Third, well, there is no third, unless you count 1d6 sneak damage

Cheers.

You'd be trading Great Smiting III for Evasion, which is actually not that bad a trade. I think if I did that I'd take Pally down to 35 though. Sorceror 2 Rogue 3. It's a different build that way, though. Build to taste. I often find True strike overrated, but in conjunction with smites, it rocks.

Your smite damage btw is 38*4=152 extra damage.

With maxed STR and CHA and casting true strike, your AB with smites = 79. Quite unruly.

Switch out sorc for cleric (for the spellcraft dump), and take some domains that grant additional racial types to your turn undead ability--which is MASSIVE. All you need is one level of cleric for the additional turning benefits. I would recommend Sun (for even better turning) and Destruction (killing constructs at will), but Good, Plant, or any of the elemental domains would help.

I suck at this. Sorry. Too much cleric on the brain. But I am curious as to how this build achieves Improved Knockdown (level 18) with only 12 INT.

Ich bein idiot. You have to switch Con 12 to Con 10 and Int 12 to Int 14. You lose 40 hit points and gain 40 skill points. Taunt 40 would fit nicely.

Or you can take Toughness and Blind Fight instead.

Bugger. Knockdown does not require 13 INT, only IKD does. 43 skillpoints even. You get 4 extra at level 1. I never noticed the IKD thing, i usually assume all builds are tested.

SHAME ON YOU!

Hey, I suck too. Didn't know Truestrike did not have a somatic component.
