Build me a Hospitaler

[Slice]

Off tank or reach. I need charisma and strength, anything else? Prefer not to take the obligatory monk dip, but will if it's that important. Rather go single class.

Thanks,

Builds itself. Good class for first playthrough. Only Monk splash would be lvl 18 or above to shore up touch AC (very late), before that every Hospitaler level makes every other Hospitaler level better.

That's a build I used in the rogue like dungeon. Had amazing saves, and did decent damage.

Is it the Acute or Obtuse variant?

Make sure melee fighters all have outflank. Make sure eveyone also has shake it off.

If you want your paladin to tank or off tank, then his advice applies too:

I'd pick up as many Cleave feats as you can instead of Iron Will and the like since you have great saves anyway. They end up being very good with reach (make sure to fight Enlarged/Legendary. Since you're so feat starved I'd just use best available two-handed weapon (there are a lot of them) instead of burning a feat on Exotic.

That's an excellent point Dwarner. I like using Fauchard because of the high crit, makes it very easy to trigger Outflank and AoOs.

You’re better off letting a weaker fighter use a Fauchard to trigger AoOs for you, especially when you’re Smiting, which you will be on most of the hardest fights.
