I think Dwarf is fine. I’d wager high elf is best with top tier gear, if you don’t cap stats with BIS gear (which you will never get) then you will cap it with a primal aside from wis and cha which High Elf has the most of. Iirc dwarves do get 5MR though and they’ll have more dex meaning that (unless u cap with BIS gear which I think you don’t or you are dex buffed or unless you invest in beads to proc primal before a fight) dwarves proc primal a bit faster.
For the vast majority of players however a Dwarf has MUCH better melee stats at the cost of charisma. Dump all points into charisma and compensate with a Kobold Jester’s Crown + Glamour sword buff for pulls and you will be able to reach good cha with good velious gear. Pre-velious however I’d say you’d have a hard time getting good use out of lulling and I honestly don’t know why you’d play a paladin without lulls.
I guess Erudite can be a contender too, atrocious melee stats like High Elves but you get the MR bonus and your wisdom is decent and your charisma is not Dwarf levels of garbage.
