? I must have been dreaming then when I completed SoA-ToB with a solo Cavalier. They can Turn Undead, it is less effective than a Cleric's but trust me, they can still kill Liches later on. They are not Clerics, but they can cast up till level 4 Priest Spells, if they were allowed to cast any higher, they would be too godly already. If Paladins were allowed to grandmaster in their weapons, trust me, nobody will want to play a Fighter anymore. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

They do not get the worst from both worlds, they get good stuff from both worlds and are for the better for it.

Oh, and did I mention the bonus of being able to use Carsomyr?

Fighter->Clerics cannot Whirlwind later on, Paladins can. F/C cannot have Hardiness, Paladins can. Paladins can gate in Devas as well.

So do not say that Paladins are weak, because they are far from weak; and just for the record, my favourite Paladin kit is the Cavalier.

Mitro has more or less covered the dualclassing part already.
