Need help Fighter1/paladin4/cleric15

[holloweater]

So I'll post details below on the build but basically the dilemma is I'm not sure if I should take 5 paladin for the tier 5 enchantments in sacred defender with 14 cleric so I can get final domain feat or take 15 cleric 4 Pali which gives me access to lvl 8 cleric spells
Overall the goal of the build is a tank that can heal the party and do decent damage

Also torn between domain of strength which boost strength and uses strength as the mod for reflex saves also gives immunity to trip and stun OR take domain of the protector for perma shield, radiant forcefield spell, and AC PRR MRR boost equal to cleric level (14,15)

So here's the thing: you've basically set three goals for yourself - healer, tank, DPS - which are at cross purposes with each other. Even just sticking to the cleric / paladin split:

Healer: tier-5 Radiant Servant, full metamagics to boost radiant bursts, with party-friendly domain like, well, Healing
DPS: tier-5 Knight of the Chalice, Silvanus + War domain for Holy Sword (mauls), full THF chain
Tank: tier-5 Sacred Defender, S&B, focused on high AC/PRR/MRR/threat bonuses, with a defensive domain like Protection


I suggest you study Axel's Silvanus build (https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/454776-Axel-s-THF-Melee-Cleric-Build) and ask yourself what you want to do different / better than his build does - and just as importantly, what you're willing to give up. E.g., want better melee DPS at the expense of party healing and higher spells? Paladin 5 / cleric 15 using tier-5 KotC.
