I have been thinking about making this character but my brother says it is broken.
Race: human

feats:
1st: power attack
1h: mounted combat
1tacticain: lookout
3rd: ride by attack
4thteamwork: change to outflank at 5th level.
5th: spirited charge
7th: boon companion more levels for mount.
1st level take cavalier
for +1 bab power attack lance proficiency can wear mithral full plate later tacticain teamwork feat and
inquistor for initiative skills and spells

20 point buy +2 to strength
str: 18
dex: 12
con:14
Int: 10
Wis: 15
cha: 7
4th level improvement going into wisdom.

traits:
reactionary +2 init
focused mind +2 concentration.
I know I cannot use my judgement in the same round I charge though but I end up with spells and a full mount advancment at higher levels.
In suprise rounds with solo tactics I get to act if anyone else can act. Oh and at 5 level I can change my teamwork feat to outflank to help someone else get sneak attack and get a +4 bonus to hit when flanking. I also get a bonus of judgement and some buff spells as well.
Is this a one trick pony still? like some people think uber chargers are?

Heh, if your brother thinks that is broken, he really needs to read some more online builds. What is even good about it? The fact that you do x3 damage on a charge? That can be accomplished by 1 level in fighter.

I get X3 damage on the charge, 6 levels of spells, 7 skill points per inquistor level
, judgement ability, bane later on if I do not have room to charge. Also my mount gets light armor proficiency for free.

I was using the lance two handed on the charge power attacking. for truly massive damages like 2d8+18 at first level.

The Inquisitor is basically a nerfed Cleric, especially how you use it. I see no reason for the level of Cavalier either, as your mount will be about as good as one you buy, and it's other features are level dependent. Like I said before, Spirited charge + Lance can be done by anyone with 3 feats, your build is nothing special.
