Holy Rollers

I was thinking of a "holy" party, Clerics , Cleric/Thief, Druid, Paladin Monk etc.

How many Paladin's or would one suffice as Clerics can tank somewhat?

Which type of Paladin and Monk would be best?

Thanks for any help :)

    Undead Hunters are very powerful, due to the plethora of Undead baddies. Hypothetically, Sun Soul monks seem a good choice due to their access to fire-based buffs, but I'm sure someone with more experience can elaborate on that.

    Thanks Craymond, I was leaning in that direction myself too :)

    the first thing I thought when I saw this discussion in the forums was Dio's "holy diver" song and when I saw the caption of "holy rollers" I did it in Dio's voice :)

    I started writing something up and ended up making a new party...

    Undead hunter (all the undead to fight)
    Cavalier (bonuses against all bosses)
    Sun Soul Monk (for flavor)
    Berserker-Cleric (how a priestess of Tempus should be)
    Swashbuckler-fighter (for throwing axes. The only way to deal with traps and stay honorable)
    Skald ( a monk recording the heroics, which inspires everyone. As everyone fights, this maximizes skald song effects. Could be replaced with a sorcerer)

    that is some huge text, I always put mine on minimum text size, it seems so out of place when it is so big

    Thanks for taking the time to post those pictures Grum.

    I never knew you could detonate traps with throwing axes, so thanks also for that! (Guessing this is a joke) :)

    If there was a class that could actually do that it would be in every party of mine!
