drunkprince: Hey mate
do you still accept "orders"?
So i finally reached act 5 BUT i realized that my first run should be LG and from the start i really wanted to play Aasimar Paladin. Since the game lacks a second tank can you create a Tank Paladin? i saw your Monkadin build but its more a dps build than a Tank..
So if i can make a prio order would be Race Aasimar with wings to be picked asap. Dont mind if you go robes/crane which is probably the ideal, the flavor would be greater with plate and shield tho. Sword and shield with Longsword (rageclaw)? Dont know the best swords :p
Once again Tnx in advance...
EDIT: dont care about the archetype.
I don't. But I have one laying around unpublished, so you can have it. Swapped it a bit for aasimar, as it was a master race human initially.

*Not just for show. It allows you to go through a good chunk of the game as a s/b character on top of being a good late-game 2h.
**Can also be a sorc, but then I don’t see what feat from the draconic list you will really benefit from. Think earlygame +1 to weapon is better and you can cast in light armor, which can be handy down the line.
***Can be swapped for whatever else you fancy and substituted with opportunist’s boots. I don’t see what you’d really need there instead, but I guess one could justify blindfight there if you don’t carry a pet alchemist around.
****Kinda late but nothing can be done about that. Employ local casters for improved invis instead.
Magus Spells: Shield, Vanish, True Strike, Mirror image.
Leveling gear: Mythral plate, shield, flaming bastard, whatever minor gear you can scramble. Mostly you will run on buffs since those will be consistently higher than what you can get on items for the better half of the game.
Optimized gear: Oak, Oversized bastard +5(or ovinrbaane), Dreamer, RoC, Absolver Cloak, +stat hat/belt, Bracers +8, whatever ammy and gloves you fancy(or paragon/clear vision+gloves of valor), Owlbear boots(opportunist’s boots when leveling)
Unoptimized RP gear: Onslaught, Bastard+5, Dreamer, RoC, Absolver Cloak, belt, Gloves of Valor, Gyronna, Clear Vision(or Paragon)
Note that you are not really married to a weapon and can use most anything you fancy till oversized bastard switch. Can use vanquisher for a time, or murder barbarians in A3 for +5Greatsword… There are some good options if you don’t restrict yourself to using one weapon group.
Doesn’t dazzle and all that, so wants a dirge bard around, which is hardly a compromise to be made, but I guess it’s worth a mention. Guess he can demoralize in a pinch if you absolutely have to.
