Even though it's slightly incomplete, I'm rather happy with the performance of this build, as it gets a quite respectable smite damage for a shifted form. The base damage is also quite nice, with +16 to damage from Divine Might with full charisma buffs(Harper's Eagle's Splendor, Paladin Eagle's Splendor, Aura of Glory. I know I could go bear, and gain 8 strength, but I felt like taking Badger instead. Any comments?

In badger form, the AB is actually +45/+40/+35/+30 from the Tiny size bonus.
Looks like a lot of fun. You should show Badger stats. Also, postpone Harper5 to Level37 for Tumble dump. This will give you +3AC. _________________ Got Hommlet? World of Greyhawk Action Server (with 1/2 price ales on Mondays!)

This jacks your number of alignment shifts... How about this?
Pal 1-3 Druid 1-14 Pal 4-6
Since Dire Badger has more Dex than STR, wouldn't weapon Finness be a good idea?
I chose to skim AC on this build, since I didn't have the feats to take Divine Shield. The potential for a Badger with AC is ridiculous, though...+23 natural. I couldn't take Weapon Finesse because I wanted to have more feats, and I can easily buff my Strength with spells like Bull's Strength and that one Druid spell that emulates a weak Barbarian Rage.

This is a neat concept, but I wonder if it can be done without an alignment shift. Perhaps some cleric/druid/hs combo, or cleric/druid/cot.
He was going for a Smite Badger. Cleric just changes the nature of the build.
CoT might be a consideration if you don't want the alignement change. CoT and Harper need to be non-evil so you don't have an alignement change.
If Dire Wolf or Panther is taken instead of Badger, then it gets 25 STR vs 14 but looses 3 AC.
If I took Champion of Torm, I would lose 16 damage per hit, since I use Divine Might. CoT's don't have access to Divine Might. They also don't have any powerful buffing spells with the exception of Divine Wrath.
Edit: If I drop Toughness at 9th level, and take a Paladin level as opposed to a Druid level, I can take Divine Shield, so as to manage 44 unbuffed AC in Badger form, with the last Harper Scout level delayed to 37 like Grizzled_Dwarflord suggested. Then I could take a Druid level sometime in Epics in place of a Paladin one.
