Best Race for a paladin in 5e DnD [Ranked]

To start off I want to take our core color and add in Red to see what sort of Paladin is bread from these colors influences. Coloring their view of the world around them, and vengeance can seem like the only outlet for such emotions. Not just vengeance on those who did them wrong, but against all who act with hate towards others. It is an act of violence against those who do wrong to the weak and judgment handed out is this characters only recourse. What I mean is that there are those are acted upon by ruthless external forces who are unable to stand up to such aggressors and the oath of vengeance paladin is there to fill in that role, by being that act of recourse for those unable to do so, placing fear in the heart of those who bring fear to others.

In the case of our White Red character they had felt the hand of an evil force mar their view of the world and vowed that such horrific actions should never go unpunished. They found that the sword, shield and divine magic were tools they could use to enact vengeance on the behalf of others, for those who could not stand up for themselves. They now see themselves as Judge Jury and executioner. This outlook and life have hardened them with an unquenchable resolve.

You see a traumatic experiences at a young age can harden a person and such is the case of this version of the Paladin. One which defines the characters life thereafter. White in this regard is the expression of Judgment and Justice, justice on the behalf of others to weak to stand against the darkness of the world. The issue is that Justice is blind, and can be dished out when it is potentially not appropriate.

This can add a lot of nuance to your character when playing them. Red in this context is the anger which is bread our character and their chosen oath. There is an rage which is inherent in vengeance whether it is justified or not, and this can mare our paladins view of the world. When we create our characters we want them to be complex and faults such as these can bread complexity and lead to moments that some Paladin role-players might be afraid to tread and yet by using the colors present their hand is forced.

As you can already see the Paladin can be dynamic in its motivations when we take a look at what could lead to such oaths and how those could be played out in your campaigns. To do this I want to remove Red and add in Green. Its a desire to kindle the light present in the living, to bring hope into a dark world, and to protect that life at all costs. They see signs in the faces in the flowers, the voice of god in the songs of birds and visions of a better world in the clouds.

This character, one day overwhelmed by what they saw, had an epiphany, it was them who was destined to stand as a shepherd for life. It was their calling to be the one who would take a strong position against the cosmic chaos which aims to break this perfection, and it was on this day they took the oath of the ancients and set their lot in with this order of Paladins.

Вы не только дали обет сокрушить своих врагов, но иногда вам приходится обходить закон и совершать сомнительные поступки, поэтому это один из немногих паладинов, которые могут иметь нейтральную мораль. У него есть неплохие бонусы к передвижению, а также несколько диких заклинаний, например, использование «Канала божественности» на одной цели, чтобы использовать несколько бонусов к атаке против этой же цели.

Благодаря такому быстрому увеличению двух основных показателей, вы быстро достигнете 20-го уровня и сможете начать работать над подвигами, которые сделают вас практически неудержимым. Дыхательное оружие — тоже приятный штрих, позволяющий нанести дополнительный урон. Неважно, какой цвет вы выберете, но черный, плюющийся кислотой, драконорожденный паладин будет просто великолепен. Это действительно зависит от DM, можете ли вы играть таким персонажем или нет, поскольку они не вписываются в каждое приключение или модуль.

Это хороший стартовый билд для любого класса, а билд для OP-паладина довольно прост. Кроме того, вы получаете навык владения одним из видов игровых наборов, чтобы скоротать время между победами над врагами. Более того, ваша особенность «Военное звание» означает, что люди из армии, в которой вы служили, будут узнавать вас и делать то, что вы говорите, пока вы выше их по званию. Если вы больше любите ролевые игры, представьте предысторию вашего паладина.

Что заставило их вступить в армию? Это был их бог? Открыли ли они своего бога на войне? Характеристика по умолчанию для этого фона — Проход на корабле, который позволяет вам получить бесплатный проход на парусном корабле для себя и своей группы, если вы обещаете нести свою службу на борту.

Например, «Дурная репутация» означает, что вы можете избежать наказания за мелкие уголовные преступления, потому что люди настолько боятся вас, что не будут сообщать о ваших преступлениях. Когда при атаке двуручным оружием на кубике урона выпадает единица или двойка, вы можете перебросить кубик.

If your campaign setting calls for it, this is one of the strongest paladin subclasses. However, in a vacuum when compared to the others, it underperforms. Oath Spells: A wide variety of spells that are mostly situational or overlap with other party roles. Ahead of a fight with casters, this is a solid buff, but otherwise it wastes an action you would otherwise use smiting. Abjure the Extraplanar: Situational. Aura of the Sentinel: An initiative boost for entering combat in tight formation. Vigilant Rebuke: Situational. Good against some casters.

This Sacred Oath is more important for villainous archetypes than the others and gives an evil-aligned campaign a solid tank option. Oathbreaker paladins are free to pursue dark goals, or accompany some more roguish characters, such as a party of warlocks, bards, and rogues, on adventures. Oath Spells: Some of the options are bad and will never be used, but there are a few gems on this list. Go from being outnumbered to an overwhelming force in the blink of an eye. As long as you have the materials prepared ahead of time, your reinforcements can arrive when you most need them. Use it to animate a dead body to kill enemies and animate them tomorrow for a never-ending cycle. Confusion is unreliable compared to other single-target enchantment spells like Hold Person, given the randomness of its effect. Touch a target in a crowd and watch them deteriorate before confronting them for the kill. Dominate Person is a powerful way to temporarily gain an extra party member. Control Undead is on theme, but less relevant.

Control Undead: Rather than turning undead, you can redirect them. This only works on minor threats, however, as any serious undead threat is going to be too powerful for you to control. Putting a swath of creatures into a frightened panic in your presence allows your allies to mop them up relatively easily. The damage bonus will stack considerably. Supernatural Resistance: Resistance to nonmagical damage makes you very difficult to kill when facing down minor enemies. Dread Lord: This ability does a ton of damage. Using it in conjunction with your channel divinity will allow you to chase enemies down and cause psychic damage to them, get an extra attack, and also take your normal attack. Animal Handling: Nature paladins and those who engage in mounted combat should grab this skill when available. Arcana: Divine casters usually take Religion over Arcana. Athletics: Strength is one of your main stats.

Deception: Paladins are straight-talking Lawful Good guys, but they do have Charisma as a main stat… History: Not terribly important Insight: The one Wisdom skill you should concern yourself with. Intimidation: Another great Charisma skill for you. Investigation: Not your strong suit. Perception: Spot enemies sneaking up on you. Performance: Not your job. Persuasion: This is your most important skill. Sweet talk your way out of or into anywhere. Stealth: Not another Dexterity skill… Survival: Nature paladins only. Backgrounds Acolyte: Thematically this might make sense, as you get two skills off the paladin skill list, but neither are very useful given your ability score priorities. Versatile, but not ideal.

Criminals are evil. Entertainer: bad skills for a heavily armored tank. Faction AgentSCAG: A fantastic choice, given the versatility in skill selection, and two bonus languages along with 15 GP, which happens to be the most of any background. Though they do make you more balanced. FisherGoS: Neither skill provided by this background is terribly relevant for Paladins. However, there are better backgrounds for that particular archetype. Hermit: Medicine and Religion are your two most useful class skills. MarineGoS: In a sea-faring campaign, this is the perfect background. Vehicle proficiency helps you contribute to the crew. Two great skills off your list, vehicle proficiency, and a feature that helps advance the plot if your DM is clever about it.

Noble: History is less useful than religion for you specifically, but persuasion is your main skill. Sage: Not relevant for a Paladin. Sailor: Athletics and Perception is a solid combination. Proficiencies with water vehicles and free passage to new places opens up avenues of exploration. ShipwrightGoS: The vehicle proficiency is the only things of value from this background. SmugglerGoS: Evil and antihero Paladins look no further! Deception and Athletics are two great skills for your archetype. Soldier: Athletics and Intimidation are both in your wheelhouse, and land vehicle proficiency will help on your travels. Urchin: Not relevant for a Paladin. You can use your single-cast 1st level spell for a smite.

Athlete: Not useful for Paladin. Actor: Not useful for Paladin. Crossbow Expert: Not useful for Paladin. However, there are still better feat options available for you. Dungeon Delver: Not useful for Paladin. Elemental Adept: Not useful for Paladin. Heavily Armored: Redundant. Heavy Armor Master: A solid feat, especially at low levels. Inspiring Leader: Using this during every short rest will send the party into your next encounter with a decent reserve of temporary hit points. Keen Mind: Not useful for Paladin.

Lightly Armored: Irrelevant.

Вместо фиксированного эффекта наложения рук, паладин в Pathfinder может выбирать эффекты и получать дополнительные с уровнем это называется милостью — mercy. Также он может, пожертвовав два применения наложения рук, использовать «энергетический канал», как жрец. Паладин в Pathfinder получил альтернативу призыву верного скакуна. Теперь он может избрать способность призывать дух небожителя в своё оружие, временно наделяя его магическими свойствами, либо усиливая и дополняя существующие. Если подобное оружие сломано, паладин теряет эту способность на месяц или до получения уровня. По мере роста уровней паладин получает ауры, усиливающие стойкость находящихся рядом союзников к магическому очарованию, страху, может даровать им способность карать зло, как он сам ценой траты двух применений «покарать зло», дает одно применение этой способности всем стоящим рядом союзникам. На 20-ом уровне паладин Pathfinder превращается в воплощение силы своего божества в земном мире.

Его атаки по демоническим существам автоматически сопровождаются попыткой их изгнания, наложение рук всегда лечит максимально возможное число хитов , и сверх этого паладин получает сокращение повреждений, которое может преодолевать только оружие зла. Как обычно в Pathfinder, паладины в системе имеют много вариантов архетипов, часть из которых может комбинироваться между собой. В их числе: Избранный Chosen One из Familiar Folio: необученный потенциальный паладин, получивший божественного посланника, направляющего его в дело. Он получает этого посланника, использующего механику фамильяра , но несколько позже получает способность карать зло и божественную ауру с бонусом к спасброскам. Фамильяр-посланник может использовать паладинское возложение рук и способность карать зло, а со временем принимает свою настоящую форму малого небожителя становясь аналогом улучшенного фамильяра. Лекарь-оруженосец Combat Healer Squire из Knights of the Inner Sea: оруженосец, способный быстро оказывать медицинскую помощь своему рыцарю, в том числе и в бою без помощи магии. Это умение заменяет обнаружение зла и паладинский иммунитет к болезням. Вместо исцеления болезней может давать всем союзникам вокруг бонус к защите и спасброскам после усиливающийся: например, союзник рядом, упавший в отрицательные хиты автоматически стабилизируется.

Вместо паладинской лошади может призывать дух небожителя в свои доспехи, улучшая их и придавая особые свойства. Божественный страж Divine Guardian из Cohorts and Companions: паладин-защитник без доступа к божественной магии. Вместо этого раз в день может назначать существо, находящееся под его защитой и получать чувство направления на него. Возложение рук на это существо совершается быстрее, а паладин может закрывать охраняемого своим телом даже не в свой раунд , давая бонус к защите и спасброскам. Также божественный страж получает несколько бонусных фитов, связанных с защитой. Божественный охотник Divine Hunter из Ultimate Combat: паладин, ориентированный на дистанционный бой. Вместо владения тяжёлыми доспехами получает бонусные стрелковые фиты, вместо паладинской лошади получает возможность добавить силы стрелковому или метательному оружию. Способен совершать возложение рук на дистанции.

Вместо ауры храбрости даёт союзникам вокруг чувство относительных позиций, так что они никогда не заслоняют друг другу линию стрельбы. Может тратить применения своей способности карать зло, чтобы дать союзникам вокруг возможность стрелять точнее.

Paladin Backstory: 10 Amazing DND Background Builds

Damage dealers in popular media would be Thor, Rambo, and the Doomslayer. This will increase your attack and damage modifiers. This comes with a slew of useful damage dealing abilities, the most useful being the Channel Divinity option Vow of Enmity and the feature Relentless Avenger. As far as weapons and armor go, you have some options. You could go with a great weapon such as a greatsword or greataxe or, and this is what I recommend, you could use a scimitar of speed.

Когда при атаке двуручным оружием на кубике урона выпадает единица или двойка, вы можете перебросить кубик. Вы должны использовать новый бросок, даже если это еще один или два, но это лучше, чем ничего. Кому не нравится второй шанс нанести больше урона? А с таким сильным паладином, каким оказался этот, больше урона — всегда лучше. Ваша сила, конституция или харизма увеличиваются на единицу, а вместо использования дыхательного оружия вы можете выбрать рев с ужасающей свирепостью. Вам не придется использовать слот заклинания или канал божественности, чтобы заставить людей бояться вас. Если да, то получите этот подвиг. Когда вы делаете атаку любым из вышеупомянутых видов оружия, вы можете использовать свое бонусное действие, чтобы сделать еще одну атаку другим концом оружия. Кроме того, любой, кто окажется в пределах вашей досягаемости, теперь провоцирует атаку возможности. Это огромное преимущество для вас, и оно становится еще большим в паре с подвигом Стража. С Polearm Master вы получаете увеличенную дальность атаки. С Часовым любое существо, по которому вы попали случайной атакой, теряет скорость до 0 до конца своего хода. Кроме того, существа, находящиеся в пределах вашей досягаемости, провоцируют атаку по возможности, даже если они совершили действие Disengage. Sentinel дает вам возможность атаковать оружием ближнего боя существо, находящееся в пределах вашей досягаемости, даже если оно атакует не вас. Вы можете получить отвратительный с вашим Divine Smite теперь, когда ваши слоты заклинаний могут перезаряжаться во время короткого отдыха, и у вас есть приличная сила дальних атак с Eldritch Blast. Кроме того, подумайте о ролевых возможностях.

Your interpretation may differ, and if it does, please share how! Whether it be a law, justice, or an authoritative figure, this is the knight who values their word and loyalty above anything else. Game Mechanics: Additional spells include utility and protection spells, like protection from evil and good, or sanctuary. They are able to magically enhance their weapon to do additional damage and create light. The devotion paladin can also turn undead or fiends, making them run away in fear. At later levels, they have an aura to protect themselves and allies against being charmed. Play-style: You want to play the honorable knight, healing the injured, protecting the weak, and showing how great your honour is. You like to reserve your spells for role-play, and focus on your weapons for combat. The ancient oath works with all kinds of nature to vanquish those who would seed evil into otherwise peaceful grounds. Game Mechanics: Additional spells, with a nature focus, work to control movement and interact with plants and animals. They can call upon nature to root enemies in place, or to turn fey and fiends. At later levels, they gain a powerful aura to reduce all spell damage by half, and eventually gain the ability to come back from 0 hp. Play-style: You like the idea of playing to an oath that is above society and people. You like the nature loving side of druids, but want to use weapons and armor with a only a dash of magical spells. Advertisements Batman — DC Comics Oath of Vengeance PHB Theme: Perseverant and persistent, the paladin of vengeance will tear down any obstacle to find justice, punishing those that have wronged them or others. Game Mechanics: Central abilities focus on frightening and reducing enemies ability to move, or enhance your ability to catch up to opponents. At higher levels, this paladin can move with opportunity attacks and, at their highest level, are able to fly.

Не каждому NPC нужно знать, почему паладин дал свою Священную клятву, но это может заинтересовать квестодателя или военачальника. Хозяин подземелья также может использовать это как справку при настройке квестов или выступая в качестве важного NPC. Цель паладина может быть личной, например, поклясться в праведной мести смертоносному культу или преступной организации, причинившей им вред. Возможно, семья паладина была убита, когда печально известная банда бандитов совершила набег на их родную деревню, или возлюбленная паладина была похищена и принесена в жертву в ходе культового ритуала, чтобы умилостивить злого бога. Такие личные цели прекрасно подходят для ролевых игр и могут добавить столь необходимую эмоциональную глубину тому, что многие считают классом, основанным на правилах и упорстве в грязи. Даже если цель паладина более общая, например, разрушить смертоносный культ Тиамат, чтобы защитить свое родное королевство от разрушения, игрок может сделать ее личной, например, подружиться со своим паладином или даже влюбиться в него. Это может лично побудить паладина еще больше бороться за дело и заставить паладина чувствовать себя более динамичным, а не статичным. Для паладина важнее не только то, что говорят правила, но и намерения, стоящие за ними. Паладины не просто следуют правилам своего бога-покровителя, чтобы быть послушными и избегать наказания.

D&D 5E Basic Build Series: Paladin

Ваш персонаж навсегда останется верен своей миссии и будет бороться со злом во имя блага своих союзников и народа. Орден может быть связан с церковью или правительством. Ваш персонаж обязан следовать кодексу рыцаря, который включает в себя честь, добродетель и борьбу со злом. Он обладает хорошими манерами, образован и вежлив. Ваш персонаж может быть привлечен к религии или политике и стремиться использовать свой статус и влияние, чтобы добиться блага для своей страны или веры. Благородный также может быть настроен на борьбу со злом и защиту своих союзников, если это не противоречит его моральным принципам и обязательствам.

Если вы хотите стать настоящим защитником своей команды, паладин - это идеальный выбор!

При успехе заклинание заканчивается. Если цель или существо, находящееся в пределах 5 футов от неё, потратит действие на тушение пламени, или если какой-то другой эффект потушит пламя например, погружение в воду , заклинание тоже закончится. На больших уровнях. Если вы накладываете это заклинание, используя ячейку 2 уровня или выше, первичный дополнительный урон от атаки увеличивается на 1к6 за каждый уровень ячейки выше первого. Проблема в том, что используя это заклинание вы во-первых тратите бонусной действие, которое так-то можно использовать например на бой двумя оружиями. То есть промазав атакой после применения кары, вы можете вполне получить заточкой от гоблина и заклинание уйдет в молоко. При этом заклинания кар так же как и священная кара это концептуально одна механика но работающая по разному. Вообще это касается не только кар, у следопыта тоже есть парочка таких заклинаний.

BLACK One can devote their life to something bigger than them only to become jaded by what it stands for. A just hand can see that their actions have little meaning and turn against who they once were for a path more in line with the cruel realities of the world around them. In the case of our character they fought for many years to be that hand of justice, striking down what they viewed as the evils of society, only to turn their back on what they found, as to them it was a foolish endeavor. This darkness built up inside of them until it changed them forever. On one such a mission, after purging a village which had grown infected by the undead they no longer believed in their mission and fell into darkness. Casting off their oath and last bit of humanity. I think a character like this can be tricky to play as it requires utilizing accumulated trauma as a mechanism for your characters decisions, but if you are up for the challenge then there is some amazing role-playing moments you can conjure up. In a rare case for our supplementary character designs I went with a mono color and one that opposes our core color. This choice was very deliberate. With White being a color of collective responsibility and justice, while Black is instead the color of individualism and moral relativism. Where White places its purpose into the hands of a higher ideal, Black places its purpose solely with itself and its own desires. So in this way they shed their oath which bound them to a higher ideal, an ideal they found to be a lie and in this way cast their trust completely into their own hands. Now of course the rejection came with a steep price, they now push back fully against everything that their previous oath stood for and have become something of a villain themselves. CONCLUSION Now that we have built a few characters lets discuss each of the colors and how they can be used in relation to the paladin, that way you can mix and match to create your own. Ah yes that thing I told you to abandon in place of the color pie, well it does have its uses and I think I can illustrate something by doing so. At the heart of every Paladin is the core alignment of Lawful, something you could hardly escape, because in many ways an oath is a law you have set to be the focus of your life. Now of all of the colors there is one who applies to lawful the most, and that would be white. So just in the same way you would make your Paladin almost always lawful with some combination of good, neutral, or evil its the same with White. Place White at the heart of your paladin and then add colors on top of it to drive its motivation further. Speaking of other colors what about the one color missing in all of the examples so far, Blue. In the case of the Blue paladin we would be talking about a more logical view of Justice rather than one based in morality. Its a logical path to a better world, something we talk about when discussing what values Blue and White share. Then we have Black.

Darkvision, resistance to necrotic and radiant damage, free Light cantrip and a long-rest recharge, scaled-back version of Lay on Hands that means you can conserve some of your actual Lay on Hands. The rest of the abilities are a bit hap-hazard for a Paladin. A big strong Goliath is similar to a Half-Orc where you get Athletics for free instead of Intimidation. Tabaxi get Darkvision, extra movement, built in weapons, and free proficiency in Stealth and Perception. The Cha boost helps a bit too. Aside from that, swim speed, breathe water and air, talk to water creatures, and cold resistance. Good all around. Also gets Darkvision, free Stealth proficiency and 2d6 extra damage when attacking from surprise. The Int may be less useful for you though. The Saving-Face ability is great in a big party. The bonus action movement helps with getting into melee range which can sometimes be an issue, darkvision and intimidation are solid pickups. Magic resistance and poison immunity plus darkvision. A well rounded choice for any Paladin. DEX Paladins could see some real benefits here. Not bad. Heavily armored Paladins can use the Strength bonus. Disguising yourself is a nice trick in more social campaigns. Change your Armour composition during a long rest, resistance to poison and immunity to disease. Navigational skills never hurt anyone either. Also think of the fun creature your Find Steed will create and get more Horns in your arsenal. At lower levels though, the difference is much more noticeable. It is less forgiving, and getting dropped is really, really easy. Keep that in mind when looking at races. To the tainted we bring fire. Your main enemy apart from undead will be fiends and eventually any non natural plane creatures. Sacred Weapon: Lv. An action to add your CHA-modifier to attack rolls for a minute 10 rounds. Does not require Concentration to maintain thus stacks with any other buffs and does not count as a spell which means you can cast a swift spell in the same round. A very good ability for that climactic fight during that part of the day. Turn the Unholy: Lv. Oath Spells overall rating : Lv. All of these are quality spells that are mostly already on the Paladin list. They skew towards buffs or healing spells, though there are a few damaging spells thrown in for good measure. Sanctuary for example is great at protecting a healer. Aura of Devotion: Lv. Getting immunity to charm for yourself and allies within the Aura is very powerful. Essentially immunity to spells like Suggestion, Dominate and Geas, as well as to equally nasty monster Charm abilities like those from vampires and succubi. Purity of Spirit: Lv. Aberrations, celestials, elementals, fey, fiends, and undead will always have disadvantage on attack rolls against you. The benefits of this will definitely be felt against hordes of weaker enemies of these types. Holy Nimbus: Lv. Great against hordes of enemies, morse specifically hordes of undead or fiends who are vulnerable to radiant damage. Does not count as a spell, and does not require a saving throw, it just does damage. The advantage on saving throws is a nice addition. Consider the nature-themed Oath that gives you bonuses against Fey creatures. The Oath of the Ancients sees you protected from Magic damage from spells along with some great defensive utility options. If your campaign sees you fighting mages or wandering through the Feywild then this could be a strong choice. Not off to a strong start, using your action to restrainin is nice but the range is short. Turn the Faithless: Lv. Can also help you pick off one at a time while holding the others at bay. Druid may look askance at you for borrowing from their spell list here. Moonbeam and Ice Storm, in particular, are viable anti-horde tools. Aura of Warding: Lv. Cuts all damage from spells against you and allies in your aura in half! Undying Sentinel: Lv. Elder Champion: Lv. Become the avatar of the forest and regain some health every turn. Takes the action to cast Elder champion, but with forewarning you may be able to trigger it before battle.

Paladin 5e Guide

Relentless Avenger: Lv. A great tool to pursue and get in front of a fleeing enemy so that they must move past you again. Potentially useful with Sentinel and Polearm Master. Soul of Vengeance: Lv. Any time your Vow of Enmity target makes an attack you can use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against it. Avenging Angel: Lv. The Vengeance capstone; for 1 hour you gain 60 ft. The flight speed for 1 hour is great, but somewhat late. The Aura of Menace makes every creature that starts or enters the 30ft aura make a Wisdom save or be frightened for 1 minute. Float into a room and fill everything with dread.

A lot of your kit lets you direct damage and attacks to yourself so that your allies can get stuff done. Champion Challenge: Lv. You can prevent melee enemies attacking allies by standing apart, the problem then comes from allies wanting to be close for your aura. Turn the Tide: Lv. Fair to have on hand for emergencies, if nothing else. All but two of these are already on the Paladin spell list, however: Spirit Guardians, and Warding Bond are fantastic spells to boost the power you have. And it should be noted that even the redundant Paladin spells on this Oath list are still at least good or even great spells e. Command, Aura of Vitality, Banishment. Divine Allegiance: Lv.

Take damage that would otherwise go to an ally within 5 ft of you. Unfortunately, it can only be done once per round since it uses your reaction, making it sharply less effective in a fight with multiple enemies or against multiattacking bosses. Unyielding Spirit: Lv. Advantage on your saves against two of the most devastating conditions in the game, paralyzed and stunned. Exalted Champion: Lv. For a full hour you get resistance to all non-magical weapons which is still has an impact at the top levels. The person to bring the correct law is of course you. This Oath takes Lawfulness to the extreme, arguably to the point of tyranny. Overall, this Oath is a lot more about control and lockdown than it is outright damage.

Conquering Presence: Lv. Frighten each creature within 30ft of you as an action. This is already strong but gets better as more features key off the frightened condition. Good tool for controlling a horde of enemies. Guided Strike: Lv. Great when paired with an active Wrathful Smite to get a better chance at triggering frightened. There are some solid additions to your Paladin arsenal here. At 9th level you come online with Fear, but at all levels there are an excellent thematic mix of defense armor of Agathys, and offense spritual weapon. Aura of Conquest: Lv.

This is where your Conquest really begins. This 10ft Aura brings you online as a fear consuming machine. Any creature frightened by you gets its speed reduced to 0 and takes psychic damage at the start of its turn. The most important thing is to keep your arsenal loaded with frightening spells and abilities, and that means preparing the excellent Wrathful Smite 1st-level spell , keeping it prepared and using it against the most threatening single targets. When dealing with hordes, you have Conquering Presence and later Fear as an Oath spell. Scornful Rebuke: Lv. How dare they even think of attacking you. Any time an enemy hits you with an attack, including ranged attacks, it takes your CHA-modifier in psychic damage. Every single time.

Every single enemy. No reaction needed on your part. This can add up very quickly. Invincible Conqueror: Lv. Resistance to ALL damage is huge. An extra attack is always nice, especially because your crit range is expanded during this time. You spend more time healing others and casting buffs than actually doing damage. The pacifism part of this Oath can make it very challenging to play in a traditional dungeon crawl. Some of the strength in this Oath come from its Persuasion check boosts so it could be more effective in a high-roleplay campaign.

Emissary of Peace: Lv. Obviously good in the social pillar. Rebuke the Violent: Lv.

If you dumped Strength to 8, going straight to 19 can be helpful.

Guardian Emblem : This can prevent a ton of damage to your party. Lantern of Revealing DMG : An excellent counter to invisible enemies for a class without a built-in way to handle them. Mistral Mantle GotG : Cold resistance and you can knock an enemy prone just my moving near them. Make sure you take proficiency in Perception if you can manage it without sacrificbing a Face skill.

Nothing fancy, but very effective. Lightly-armored paladins might still prefer a Broom of Flying. Fire and poison are safe choices. Imagine rushing to get to 20 Strength then finding an item that raises your Strength to 21 more with higher rarities.

Still, if you can get one you absolutely should. Taking damage from any source spells, etc. You can notably cast every spell from the beads as a Bonus Action yes, including Planar Ally which normally has a 10-minute casting time , allowing you to quickly heal allies or get Bless running while leaving your Action for attacks or cantrips. Periapt of Proof Against Poison DMG : Poison damage is very common across the full level range, so immunity to it is a significant improvement in your durability.

Ring of Spell Storing DMG : Fill it with Absorb Elements and Shield and recharge it whenever possible and this is a spectacular defensive asset on almost any character. Radiant damage is great, but most creatures with resistance to weapon damage types are affected normally by magic weapons so the benefits of radiant damage compared to piercing or slashing damage from a magical we oapon are minor. Animated Shield DMG : Tempting for anyone not fighting with a one-handed weapon, but a Cloak of Protection is two rarities lower, works persistently, and arguably provides a better numeric bonus. If you plan to get full plate, get Dwarven Plate instead.

For a Strength-based character, raising your Strength above 20 is a massive benefit, and going up as high as 25 is spectacular. Invoking the rune on Bloodshed Blade lets you perform a once-per-day nuke which should nicely eliminate whatever thing to drop all of your hit dice on top of. Yes, you get resistance to fire damage, but you can get that from dozens of other sources by this level. Scimitar of Speed DMG : Among the best weapons to use with the Dueling style, you get two-weapon fighting action economy on a single weapon.

Increasing your Strength or Dexterity may be more important, but if you can get both you absolutely should.

Great for certain adventures, but too powerful to rate only a 2. The added ribbon of not feeling your age, or being vulnerable to magical aging is nice flavor added on. Elder Champion 5 — An excellent capstone ability worth the action cost.

Excellent to pair with Ensnaring Strike, the disadvantage on the saving throw can be easily converted into advantage on your attacks, and additional damage. Vengeance If vengeance stories motivate you, the idea of chasing down the monsters who wronged the innocent stirs your righteous heart then this is the subclass for you. The mechanics support an aggressive playstyle with access to teleportation spells which give you the capability to pursue or your quarry or form a tactical retreat when necessary. Abjure Enemy [CD] 2 — Frightened with a speed of zero is a very nice debuff, and the increased potency against fiends and undead makes this a more effective feature even for lower Charisma Paladins.

Though, the effect disappearing when the creature takes damage completely undermines all of those benefits, especially when it took your entire action to set up. This can still be helpful but is not a go-to use of your Channel Divinity by any means. Vow of Enmity [CD] 5 — A fantastic buff against bosses and other meaty single targets. Not only can this help land more smites, but can also aid if you went the route of using Great Weapon Master.

Relentless Avenger 2 — A feature that can be useful for chasing down your quarry, but an enemy running away from you whilst provoking an opportunity attack is a bit too niche of a trigger. Soul of Vengeance 4 — A significant improvement to your Vow of Enmity that will increase your damage output drastically, remember the reaction attack will have advantage. Avenging Angel 3 — This is okay overall, the mobility of having a 60ft fly speed is a significant increase to the Paladin, and the fear aura has potential. Crown Driven by their ideals of civilization, Crown Paladins are guided by the law, their loyalty to whichever form of civilization they have chosen, such as a nation or sovereign, and the belief of being responsible for your actions.

Their mechanics are that of a tank Paladin, gaining access to spells and features to protect others or make themselves the center of hostile attention instead. This subclass is often forgotten about, as it was published in the SCAG but not later republished like other subclasses from the same book. Champion Challenge [CD] 5 — A great tanking ability and one of the few abilities in the game that forces enemies to pay attention to you, rather than the squishy spellcasters 35 feet behind you. Turn the Tide [CD] 3 — This ability has a lot of potential and is potentially a lot of hit points.

The stand-out spell here is Spirit Guardians, which would synergize well with Champion Challenge, this is the only Paladin to gain access to this great spell. I would have preferred to see a little more healing on the list, this is the perfect Paladin for Healing Word. Divine Allegiance 2 — If you build your Paladin with soaking up large amounts of damage in mind, this can be very useful to keep your party members alive. However, the inability to reduce the damage, and the 5ft limit of the feature means you would likely be better off using the Interception style for the most part.

Unyielding Spirit 2 — Advantage against paralysis and being stunned is nice, but very niche to be the only feature at this late a level. The advantage on Wisdom saving throws is also a large defensive boost at this level, where Wisdom saves are pretty common and the effects of failing them particularly unpleasant. The stand-out here is that this ability lasts for an entire hour, rather than the much shorter duration of other Oath capstones, allowing you to fit potentially several encounters into a single use. Conquest A very different take on the Paladin archetype, being devoted to crushing all who stand before you and amassing personal power, the mechanics and spells are based around inducing and extorting fear in your enemies.

Between the focus on causing the frightened condition and their aura, Conquest Paladins have a reputation of being great battlefield control Paladins. Conquering Presence [CD] 5 — A great debuff with no chance of friendly fire and no risk of removing the effect by damaging the creatures affected. Guided Strike [CD] 3 — Being able to make a big miss a hit is very nice, however, a single hit on a class with Extra Attack is a very expensive use of your Channel Divinity. Nice to have in your back pocket to pull off a smite when you need to, but it makes far more sense on the War Cleric, which makes fewer attacks and gets more uses of their CD.

Oath Spells 5 — The overall theme of the list is very appropriate for the subclass, with a useful selection. Aura of Conquest 5 — This aura ties to your CD and spell options, giving the subclass a very cohesive feel, the effect of the aura itself is also very powerful. Being able to lock down a frightened creature, and automatically doing damage to them, is a quick path to victory. This feature benefits from gaining as many ways to impose the frightened condition as possible and having a higher save DC against that condition.

Scornful Rebuke 5 — Automatic damage, of a good type, whenever someone hits you? What pushes this ability into a 5 is this working at range and both with weapons and spells. Redemption A more social and reactive Paladin, the Oath of Redemption focuses on avoiding conflict or mitigating its consequences. This is executed through spells like Sleep , Calm Emotions, and Hypnotic Pattern, as well as Persuasion buffing, and punitive options for Channel Divinity.

This subclass makes a strong candidate for the Charisma-focused, support Paladin playstyle. Emissary of Peace [CD] 4 — A social ability is nice to see on a martial, a duration of 10 minutes makes it useful for entire social encounters. To get the most out of this ability you really need proficiency in Persuasion and a decent Cha modifier. Rebuke the Violent [CD] 5 — As enemy damage increases, this option will naturally scale in usefulness.

Oath Spells 3 — Whilst the spells are very appropriate for the subclass, they run into problems of usefulness and scaling. That said having these spells as options is nice, and Hypnotic Pattern and Wall of Force are very useful control spells. Aura of the Guardian 2 — A slightly better version of the 7th level Oath of the Crown feature. Protective Spirit 4 — This is a very healthy amount of hp regeneration with some minor scaling built-in for the remaining levels.

Note: As it is not stated, when you halve your Paladin level for this feature, you should round down. Emissary of Redemption 3 — Unfortunately, this is a mixed bag, whilst it fulfills the goal of the subclass and provides great benefits, using a lot of your core class features would negate this benefit entirely. This is best for support Paladins who focus on buffs and healing, or who are content with dealing with minions whilst other party members deal with the heavy-hitting enemies. Glory You thought Conquest was a different spin for a Paladin?

Glory focuses on propelling you and your companions to legendary status by focusing on honing their body and skill and putting them to use through acts of courage. Inspiring Smite [CD] 2 — Whilst you can in theory apply these temporary hit points to as many creatures as you have temp hp, realistically for this ability to be worth anything you need to keep the number of creatures to one or two. The use of your bonus action feels a little clunky and makes the activation of this ability dependent on not only multiple factors, but spending an entirely separate resource.

This build focuses on putting out the highest amount of damage possible with less regard for the well being of yourself or your party. Damage dealers in popular media would be Thor, Rambo, and the Doomslayer. This will increase your attack and damage modifiers. This comes with a slew of useful damage dealing abilities, the most useful being the Channel Divinity option Vow of Enmity and the feature Relentless Avenger. As far as weapons and armor go, you have some options.

D&D 5th Edition

Cleansing Touch Beginning at 14th level, you can use your action to end one spell on yourself or on one willing creature that you touch. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier a minimum of once. You regain expended uses when you finish a long rest. Sacred Oaths Becoming a paladin involves taking vows that commit the paladin to the cause of righteousness, an active path of fighting wickedness. Oath of Devotion The Oath of Devotion binds a paladin to the loftiest ideals of justice, virtue, and order. Sometimes called cavaliers, white knights, or holy warriors, these paladins meet the ideal of the knight in shining armor, acting with honor in pursuit of justice and the greater good.

They hold themselves to the highest standards of conduct, and some, for better or worse, hold the rest of the world to the same standards. They hold angels—the perfect servants of good—as their ideals, and incorporate images of angelic wings into their helmets or coats of arms. Tenets of Devotion Though the exact words and strictures of the Oath of Devotion vary, paladins of this oath share these tenets. Let your word be your promise. Courage: Never fear to act, though caution is wise.

Compassion: Aid others, protect the weak, and punish those who threaten them. Show mercy to your foes, but temper it with wisdom. Honor: Treat others with fairness, and let your honorable deeds be an example to them. Do as much good as possible while causing the least amount of harm. Duty: Be responsible for your actions and their consequences, protect those entrusted to your care, and obey those who have just authority over you.

Oath Spells You gain oath spells at the paladin levels listed. Table: Oath of Devotion Spells Level.

Fighting Style At 2nd level, you adopt a style of fighting as your specialty. Choose one of the following options. Great Weapon Fighting When you roll a 1 or 2 on a damage die for an attack you make with a melee weapon that you are wielding with two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new roll. The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit.

Protection When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll. You must be wielding a shield. The extra damage is 2d8 for a 1st-level spell slot, plus 1d8 for each spell level higher than 1st, to a maximum of 5d8. The damage increases by 1d8 if the target is an undead or a fiend. Spellcasting By 2nd level, you have learned to draw on divine magic through meditation and prayer to cast spells as a cleric does. Preparing and Casting Spells The Paladin table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

You prepare the list of paladin spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the paladin spell list. The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you are a 5th-level paladin, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Charisma of 14, your list of prepared spells can include four spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell Cure Wounds , you can cast it using a 1st-level or a 2nd-level slot. You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of paladin spells requires time spent in prayer and meditation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.

Spellcasting Ability Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your paladin spells, since their power derives from the strength of your convictions.

For example, a fire wolf might shoot flames out of its mouth. Circle of the Moon Druids will also now be able to wildshape as a bonus action, and while in their wildshape form can now cast Adjuration spells or burn a spell slot to heal themselves.

Additionally, Paladins will not have access to two Channel Divinity uses per day, with this number increasing as the character levels up. The ability, however, can now only be used once per turn and only if the Paladin has not already cast a spell. While these spells previous required concentration to cast, with the effects only taking place after the spell had been cast, in the new rules rules the impact of Smite Spells will now take place immediately.

In other words, you can now do a melee attack and then instantly use a smite spell as a bonus action to augment the attack.

It will scale well as we level up, adding an additional 5 HP to our pool, granting us a decent store of health to use. Constitution is an important stat for any character, doubly so for those looking to utilize concentration, and the best we can afford is a 14. This guide treats Paladin as a Charisma primary class rather than Strength for the purpose of enhancing the strong points of Paladin, an approach encouraged for all Paladins. Background Sailor Skills — Intimidation, Perception. Perception is the most used skill in the game and important to every character. Athletics from Sailor we already have, and can thus replace with any other skill. This is situational, but being able to secure free passage on a ship can be a boon in some campaigns. A magic weapon.

This is likely out of your control, but for this build, a magic spear or quarterstaff would be ideal. If you find a magic halberd or glaive, you can work with those too. Some monsters have resistance or immunity to non-magical weapon attacks, and being able to bypass that resistance with your attacks is important. Level 1 Strategy In combat, we want to be attacking twice with our glaive while wearing our chain mail. Whenever an enemy enters our reach which will be 10 feet at this point , take the free opportunity attack. Save Lay on Hands for between combat healing unless an ally has gone down, in which case you should give them one point of healing. Level 2 Paladin Fighting Style — Dueling.
