Hey there,

I am trying hard to build a high CHA build that has a strong melee presence and uses the divine might and shield feats. Was thinking about something like a bard/rdd/fighter perhaps or maybe a paladin/sorc?

Point is to pump cha real high and do lots of divine damage with might.

Thx

Everything`s been done, everything`s been said so why bother You need to have turn undead to use divine might and divine shield, so only clerics, paladins and blackguards can use the feats. I think a pally/bard/RDD (if you can manage the alignment switch) or pally/sorc/RDD will be the best for your purposes.

Two wrongs don't make a right but three lefts do. If you really mean Divine Damage, Paladin/CoT30/Monk will be the real deal. Well, it would work best if you wanted a Smiter, but since you didn't specify if that was to your liking: Paladin/Bard/RDD is really good if the alingment shift isn't a factor. Substitute Bard for Sorc if you can't manage the alignment issue.

I lookd at this last year. I really really got excited about the divine might with like 36 charisma!! Then you get into it and you notice a problem... low ab. A paladin sorc rdd IF you are goin high cha is a great thing for the save bonus alone (not quite like a pal/cot with high cha but what ever). Since you DIDNT want a SMITER, I would suggest taking your cha to 20 at the most. This would leave you with 32 (+11) with full cha buff. I know it isnt high, but if you take a scrim with nice range, you can crit it to 22... hmm.

I think avado answered your question like no other could...
Thanks all for the answers.

Thought about smiting but its use is limited, only vs evil/good and a max of 3 uses a day. Damage output is nice though...

Seems a waste indeed to get cha up high, perhaps 20 will suffice and invest everything else in ab, like the previous poster suggests.

Still not sure on what i will build though, but leaning towards cleric(pally)/bard/rdd.

If so, you can easily get a Str20/Chr26 with a handful of Great Smites, Extra Smiting, undispellable buffs, Evasion, Tumble, UMD, and 36 levels of Pally/CoT for some massive Great Smite Damage and Lay on Hands. And no alignment shifts or xp penalties. If interested, let me know, I can PM you the details. I'm playing just such a character on my PW and I'm on cruise control through the abounding villainy.
