Paladin stats & race

[Jimjam]

I think the difference in our positions probably comes down in a difference in perspective on what a wis build paladin would be and what an AC/hp orientated paladin would be.

I interpret a wis build as sacrificing large amounts of defence for wisdom (as per the profile you liked with the jewelled mask instead of a targishin mask for similar money / trivial camp). Likewise when I say hp/AC orientated builds I mean one that takes defence and ignores other stats. I'm not really talking about 1400 AC builds, that is way beyond the point of diminished returns for most content, I agree.

But in like for like gear comparisons most of the way up, I don't think so.
