I recommend buying WF, would make this build 10x better.
I'm unsure if you're only going paladin for the saves, or if you actually want to melee. If you did: drop DEX, and INT down to 8, and put them into STR.

[cyadra]

Tukow has a good build for this. I played one up to level 12 or so and shelved him for a different build. Anyway:

You MUST go WF for the heals. Especially if your new and you can pay for it, you don't have the coin to spend on healing pots/wands/etc. If you can't get a WF I wouldn't even play this build as a new player. You don't need any INT at all, drop it to 8. Pump the STR to 16 and rest in Dex. You can even drop the CON to 12 since you will self heal and those extra 2 points aren't needed. I would raise Wis to 10 since you will be failing will saves.

You don't need any swim, or intimidate (you aren't a front line combatant),you need some balance, don't know why you need haggle, I always like to dump a couple of points into repair (ya I know people hate that and heal) you should max out your UMD. If you aren't going to max out UMD every level, you shouldn't even bother.

Feats: Extend spell not needed at 1st level. Stick with toughness for first level. I assume your going 2HF you might want to take that feat as well. Your spell feats you don't need at low levels since you will melee more at the lower levels.

[Crow_Lacroix]

at INT 8, i will not have enough points to put in UMD, concentration, jump 10 and balance 4. DEX at 10 because i'll have displacement and stoneskin.

i figured i can only melee at lower levels and start focusing on nuking at mid-higher levels. paladin 2 is for Divine Grace saves. i also figured i will not be soloing much at higher levels as my melee will simply be too low, but at least when i'm out of SP i will not be totally useless.

do i make sense?

[cyadra]

A 10 INT is ok, you dont need much of jump since it comes from a spell. concentration isn't that huge. Balance may hurt you.

I would still throw in a 2HF feat, and the swap it out at level 6 for a different feat if you want. its a good build IF you play a WF, if not...its going to be really tough.

Really tough.
