@@noubodisperrfct5513 levels 1-3/5 should just be the prologue to the main campaign. I like starting at 1 because it gives me and my group some time to get a feel for our characters and the world that we’re in. As a Paladin, I like to work with my DM to give some set up to why my Paladin takes a specific oath, like as a Vengeance Paladin coming back to the still warm bodies of a childhood friend or family member and swearing in the dirt and mud that you dedicate yourself to bringing their murderers to justice, etc.
@@Nickelback8469 Yeah that is what Dms are intended to do. Unfortunately for myself and many others my old Dm uses it to get rid of characters they don't like and test out peoples builds.... Or lack there of... Safe to say no one played a wizard with them.
My first paladin was a sentient Cake, and my current paladin is an Aetherborn. The first one yelled at people to eat him, the other one basically eats people.
Yeah I had to carry the party through a lot of sessions when our barbarian was gone omg I basically only healed myself and had to be the one melee character
For anyone reading- while the paladin is often the one with the party's braincell/self control, my paladin is the embodiment of the 'I have very few braincells but make up for it with many heartcells' meme. Ironic, as her goddess is Athena. It's a family thing. (She will, however, pick up other party members to remove them from uncomfortable situations)
My favorite dnd memory is when my bard and our paladin teamed up. The paladin had a super magic sword which combined with smite did about 40 damage per round. My bard then just hid behind him, curing all wounds and providing inspiration, and when the dragon took flight, my bard dimension doored us both onto it's back to continue the system. It was supposed to be a near TPK for our six member party, but the two of us took it down all by ourselves
One of my favorite characters I've ever played was a paladin who was basically your average dragonborn damage sponge, except I played her as a soccer mom, and all the party members were basically her children. She died when she found out that asking to speak to the manager of a blood cult worshiping an illithid is NOT a great plan. Rest in Peace, Karen Karington
Lawful neutral alignment is best. Cold, efficient brutality in the name of upholding the law. My first character was a construct, a lawful neutral Paladin/Artificer armed with a flail and kite shield, and essentially was a fantasy Robocop.
I had a Paladin in a pathfinder game that first session the npcs told everyone who didn’t follow their religion to convert or they would throw them in a bonfire, she just walked right into the fire then started hurling insults and burning logs at them thanks to fire resistance. I really loved that character.
Unless you're Oath of Vengeance. Then, the barbarian and the rogue are your besties and all you need to do is point them in the right direction and watch the blood of the wicked flow
I mean I was playing an oath breaker and just stood there as cultist stole the souls of several defenseless children he could of done something but he didn’t
Playing with a paladin, we were saving towns from giants First session after our paladin died... We may have... burnt an entire town to the ground because we got robbed at the inn..
The lvl 1 Paladin probably: “Yeah yeah laugh it up chuckle fucks you just wait till we start going up lvls I bet you’ll want me around when my very presence is giving you all +3 to every save, or when I can pop a boss like a balloon. Oh what’s that your hurt or have a condition that my lay on hands can fix, sorry all I’m good for is tanking.” * proceeds to smite the evil thing into oblivion. *
My Paladin literally took the butt of his heavy crossbow and knocked a guy unconscious from behind. To be fair, we were infiltrating the building to find stole sacred remains (CoS)
@@MWH12085Well, it was you helping the guard to sleep or letting the barbarian or rogue to kill the guard. Poor guard might have a family for all we know.
Anyone notice the paladin has a magic sword? It disappears at times hiding itself into the background. Watch the sword when he says "your inclined to be the goody two shoes saint"
When I played dnd rise of tiamat, I was a oath of the ancients paladin and my party respects me on the first session. A bug bear or a hobgoblin nearly killed our ranger and I was in a Bush waiting for a opportunity to attack got a nat 20 to hit the hob and delt 32 points of damage. Basically the dm said that when my warhammer collided with the hob's mid section it sent a shock wave through the hobgoblin basically liquified his internal organs and leaving him on 1 hp left. The whole party was only level 1.😅
My DM and I work shopped a paladin who's oath was to a devil and his oath was so powerful when they died he resurrected into a revenant and now they're an undead Devil loving tank just eviscerating enemies with necrotic damage
One of my players had 1 level of cleric, and then went paladin after that... except for 3 levels of celestial warlock late-game (carrying around a saint's reliquary). Cantrips for ranged battle, a divine domain, can't lose her weapon, gets a few spell slots back every short rest... yeah she was friggin O.P. as... uh, _heck._ (whew, narrowly dodged a smiting there 😅)
Oh geez, the barbarian and wizard in my party are so bloodthirsty, and me (paladin) and the Druid normally go after their turns so we basically clean up after them until they piss off a new population.
I'm the paladin in our group with no other healers or tanks. I'm also the babysitter because THEY ARE ALWAYS GETTING INTO GODDAMN TROUBLE IF I LOOK AWAY FOR ONE SECOND. Fun and hilarious lol
Do people actually play paladins this way? Surely for every lawful good white Knight paladin there's two dozen sabaton blasting conquest paladins, seven weed smoking ancients paladins and fifty Edge mc cool vengeance pallys.
As a rogue who fell a Hydra from more than 800 feet away with a critical longbow, I can safely say that I enjoy having a paladin as a friend and an ally
Fun thing: for our campaign I play as a half foot teifling. Our barbarian and everyone else in the party, aside from the dm, won’t let me fight god For some background behind it: We’re all level 6 and tend to have a ton of fun messing around, even if our dm likes to through emotional rollercoasters at us. For our last one we were all saying how we are gods and I’m over here, a chaotic 9 year old child, saying “We can Fight God.” I get a bunch of no’s before being backed up cause, technically, God’s used to fight each other all the time. It was interesting to hear-
I am convinced that the only reason why paladins are moral babysitters is because evil LITERALLY smells more fowel than a baked cooked skunk and they just want the suffering to stop
I like the idea of paladin being lawful good, because when I play my chaotic good paladin DMS be like "you cant do that you have to be lawful" and me being "yes and technically no you see my deity is chaotic and is good so my character is just following his deities footsteps." Dm 😥😥 but the.. its says in da rules
I play my paladin slightly different. Playing in a pirate themed campaign, think of my character as Elizabeth swan from pirates of the Caribbean. Starts from royalty and is lawful good, slowly turning to chaotic good. Currently I just want to rid the seas of evil pirates and sea creatures. I probably have way more blood lust than our barbarian does. I definitely hit harder and more often then she does.
Through an "unholy" combination of cloak, ring, and blessing of protection and my +3 shield my AL character has 27 AC but I am so weak in the damage department the only thing I can do is tank. not like I get a chance to have my turn before everyone is dead anyway.
Me: chaotic good Tiefling paladin rogue who heals everyone, has a wife, eats quesadillas, has a robot hand, and kills everything Our party of 4 was called the FDA (five dumb a*ses I doubt we had a collective intellince score over 50)

There's nothing morally upright about an Oath of Conquest Paladin. There's me, and everyone else beneath my boot.
Renegade Shepard? "You either get in line, or you become one of the many that are crushed beneath my boot."
I mean, you could argue batman is at least partially a conquest paladin. Make the bad guys afraid of me etc.
Edit: words
Depends where the conquest paladin is trying to conquer. A conquest paladin on a quest to conquer the underdark and bring it into the light. Woukd very much need that mindset to survive.
Same me and my conquest werewolf high elf and his two bags of tricks will rule the world
I was gonna ask if you could have a chaotic (maybe evil) Paladin. But this sums it up well.
This is why our DM started us at level 3 this campaign. Now our Conquest Paladin can actually enjoy himself.
If you don't start at lvl 3 its a survival horror till you reach that point lol
Wouldn't that technically be level 1 then.
@@SpecterNeverSpectator it really should be. I have no Idea why they put the subtypes mainly at level 3....

Same, Warlock Simic with about 55 hp at level 6. Also tank with 19AC cause fuck your attacks enemy.

One of my groups once had a paladin who's hair had its own charisma check.
the sword is so shiny it reflects the green screen just enough to look like it phases out of existence for a bit

What was your paladin?
She was an Aasimar with fire resistance 5 in place of the spell-like ability
My paladin was an idiot and used thundering smite in a pyramid waking up a horde of mummies and almost got us all killed.
My ancient oath paladin lying about everything as he goes along with his group
This armor looks so good on you!
Unless you're Oath of Vengeance. Then, the barbarian and the rogue are your besties and all you need to do is point them in the right direction and watch the blood of the wicked flow
Great video! Just sent it to the Paladin in the party.
Yesssssss, may everyone be roasted equally!

Can I just say btw that outfit looks cool on you
Indeed. Where did it come from I wonder?
"due to the Barbarian you have your work cut out for you"

Playing with a paladin, we were saving towns from giants
First session after our paladin died...
We may have... burnt an entire town to the ground because we got robbed at the inn..
Bruh my paladin scream BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD to heal him self
Everyone who uses paladins be like: so anyway I started spreading the word of god
Rouge: you’re covered in blood
Paladin: that’s what I said
Who needs healing when the most common types of damages are halved?
I don't know about Paladins man but I do know that this armor looks really sick!
This gives me Wizards101 class selection vibes
Oath of Vengeance and Conquest just chained in a corner to prevent their "justice"

The Oath of Throwing it Back Paladin is too much for this world
My oath of vengeance paladin: morally good, and upstanding citizens? HA!

I just like how the sword sometimes turns to grass
I was a Redemption Paladin my last game. My rolls and AC drove my DM crazy.
I played my first paladin today and immediately was put in the baby sitting roll lol
Playing oath of vengeance gives you so much freedom even as lawful good
Love these little videos, equally love the legendary Grass Sword~

The "lay on hands" joke was beautifully written.
I have played games where the bard has more blood lust than the Demons we were slaying
Pretty accurate for a Devotion paladin at 1st level. Of couse once you do get smite your killcount goes through the roof.

As a rogue who fell a Hydra from more than 800 feet away with a critical longbow, I can safely say that I enjoy having a paladin as a friend and an ally
As paladin being on my favorite classes in anything I feel this down to every last word
Idea, evil paladin who uses the sense evil thing to sense out other evil people and plot with them
At level there I became the hero of the party. With my great sword and 2 active smites

I played a very evil paladin who craved for blood lust and one shot strahd. I named her Luna light

imma lazy bag of chips so i really like being a tank
Bro whered you get the plate to go over the gambeson
Paladin has to be a good guy, meanvile oath of conquest and vengence: scul we tell him?
Oath of the Ancients is my favorite oath because it lets you play as a character with more personality than a single trait.
Why is nobody talking about the armour
Healing Tank is best Tank even if its creepy and believe me it can get really creepy
Before level 3 there’s nothing stopping a paladin from being a murder hobo.
Where do i get that sword i want one
I feel every part of this so hard. My only job is to treat my hp like a yoyo so the magus can look good.
Now we need a level 5 or seven
Me: chaotic good Tiefling paladin rogue who heals everyone, has a wife, eats quesadillas, has a robot hand, and kills everything

Oath of nurgle paladin go hard
And then there Michael Bryant from the prince division.
I fucking love being the tank though
