    Lightbulb New Build -- Favored Soul or Paladin 12-- Fighter/6 Monk/2 ??

    Recently I've been thinking of doing a TWF-Nightmare build, I was thinking of going a class split of 12 Fighter/6 Monk/2 Paladin, but recently I've looked at the Warpriest's Enchantment and i've seen maybe going 12 Fighter/6 Monk/2 Favored Soul would be better.
    Pros for Favored Soul over Paladin
    ------------------------
    1) Divine Might cost only 1 AP and is on the first tier. Also It only doesn't use up turns, it uses SP to cast it.
    2)May sound silly, But Nice SP for Rejuv Cocoon from Epic Twists.
    3) Can also save you a twist b/c you don't need Unlimited LoH from US destiny.
    4) Also the First and Second tier of Warpriest is pretty good ^_^.

    Cons of Favored Soul over Paladin
    --------------------------------
    1) Loses LoH and nice self heal.
    2) You have a BIG loss in saves.
    3) Less Hamp

    Please Post your opinions and name stuff I missed, also name which one would you prefer over another

    With only two pally lvls, LoH is practically useless; and heal amp is T3+ KotC, so you wouldn't get it with only pally 2, either. Also, another drawback is pally Divine Might requires TU, which pallies don't get until lvl 4; so you'd either have to do monk 6 / ftr 10 / pal 4 (which costs you a feat and Power Surge); or Twist in Bane of Undeath (which means no DM until epic lvls & you grind out enough ED lvls to get it).

    So it mostly boils down to Divine Grace: how badly do you need / want the bonus to saves?
