yes its the best i have to say about mine.....he carries stuff well.
Other main use is in this thread:
http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/37356/guard#latest
I use him to block off mobs, from the caster classes. Which requires an ac of -8 or lower.
I did have his ac down to -11 at one point but i shuffled stuffs some about. I had my pally as main tank in the undead isle, but since then he got relegated to a support role. I dont think any of the bullets are as good.
He just doesnt shine, at much to be a lead char in the party.
I did find one thing he did well.....was throw darts of stunning. He was CC for a while. Cant recall where i got those from, and didnt have many. SO this was brief phase of utility!
SO the poor old chap is back to being a donkey.
There is a good halberd in IWd, no idea where its from. Might be something to play with. Overall though there is no stand out pally weapon i can see......I gave 3 white doves to the ranger/cleric......wpu;d be one option though i guess.
Underwhelming choice of 2handers so far, did i miss an ubber one?

Which proficienes?
What weapon style?
Dual wielding axe mainhand and bastard sword of action offhand is a great way to shine as a paladin without using weapons coveted by other classes.
Turn Undead is extremely useful.
An Undead Slayer with a longbow decimates most IWD enemies.
Tongue of the Gloomfrost is a reasonable halbard, you can find Kresslick's sword early, and it isn't randomised, but I don't think there are any awesome 2 handers.
A lot depends on what else you have in your party though. I wouldn't include a paladin AND a fighter/cleric for example.
great halberd and doom halberd look to be best imo. am guessing they both in how ?
best i got so far was halberd +1, which i didnt keep.
