'''8 Paladin + 4 Sorcerer / 6 Paladin + 6 Sorceror / 5 Paladin + 4 Sorceror + 3 Fighter:''' An evolution of the Divine Smite build listed above, the inclusion of Sorceror levels instead of Warlock levels reduces the number of attacks we can make in a single turn, but allows us to cast spells as a bonus action using '''Quicken Magic.''' 5 levels of Paladin give us two attacks per action, while 3 levels of Sorceror is mandatory for a single use of '''Quicken Magic''' per Long Rest. Alternatively, 8 levels of Paladin give us another feat, as well as Auras depending on your Oath. At level 6 Sorceror, we can use '''Quicken Magic''' twice per Long Rest; I would not recommend going past 6 levels of Sorceror, unless you ''really'' want a cast of '''Twinned Spell''' or something. 2 levels of Fighter give '''Action Surge,''' while 3 levels of Fighter allow us to take '''Battlemaster''' or '''Champion''' for better Striking. | ||
*This build is very linear, but allows for enough spell slots to have meaningful choices in how we approach combat scenarios.
