No problem BigAl. I'm not suggesting that you switch your character. Paladins kick arse in the game. You might want to try an Inquisitor (awesome dispel effects...twice the level) or an Undead Hunter (+3 to hit/damage to undead, immune to hold and level drain).

I would suggest going through your first game as a fighter type..ranger, paladin, fighter...Take the different kinds of NPC's that you can and exploit their different skills. Once you get a feel for what kind of character you want to play then start kicking some major arse. The only reason I say to start with a fighter type is so you don't have to worry (so much) about what to do. Hack and slash until you figure out the spells, inate abilities, etc.

I started playing the game with rangers. (Archer...best ranger kit ever...awesome ranged killing machine) I used my first couple of games figuring out what the different classes could do. Once you find what you like, run with it. There are no bad choices...just those not taken.
