On a related note, I have a THF paladin I'm getting ready to ITR; is there a 15/5 split that is better than pure Paladin?
Other than 15 pally/5 ranger for DoD? (which looks really good on paper, but I haven't actually tried.)
No.
But 15 pally/ 5 whatever is still stronger than most other melee builds. If you're more looking to try something different/interesting there are several ways you could go.
5 monk if you're willing to be centered. (gets bonus feats, evasion, meditation of war, violence begets violence from Shintao)
5 cleric/fvs if you're willing to go warforged (gets buff spells, wrathful weapons, ameliorating strike, divine vessel from Warpriest)
5 wizard (buff spells, gets 2 bonus feats, perma tenser's, spellsword, shield & mage armor SLAs, eldritch strike cleave from EK) (sorc could do the same, but no feats or 3rd level spell)
4 rogue (gets evasion, 6d6 sneak attack dice, venomed blades, damage boost, +3 seeker, and up to 20% doublestrike with killer from assassin)
5 arti (gets??? buff spells, feat and a ranged option I guess. Maybe the glancing blows enhancement in BE will apply to THF even though it says hand and a half.)
