Just for fun was looking to build a fun ghost rider build. Standard Point buy, AL legal stuff only.
Classes: Warlock (Fiend)/Paladin (Vengeance) This is pretty much all the fluff of the character right there. It fits too well.
Stats: 15, 10, 14, 8, 8, 15.
Race: V Human to bump str and cha. Mounted Combatant as feat.
Have to go str build here since he is super strong. Instead of bothering with a whip or flail, just refluff the lance since it actually mechanically makes a lot of sense as a chain (disadvantage if they are close). It's a str build so wear heaving armor, but be sure to cover it spiked black leather.
Start paladin to 5 to pick up Find Steed. Summon Yourself a Fiendish Mount.
Go into warlock and get some required spells such as: Spider Climb (share it with your mount to ride up buildings and what not), Hellish Rebuke, and really anything that can emulate penitent stare. Although pact of the chain sounds like its you, its blade pact for sure. Make sure to pick up Mask of Many Faces to disguise self and cast it on you, sharing it with your mount for that flaming skeletal look on you both.
From there you can either go up in warlock to 14 and pick up hurl through hell, a great penitent gaze for sure, and lifedrinker. Or you can continue in paladin to level 11 or so for Improved Divine Smite. Bonus points if you can convince your DM to let your smites all do fire instead of radiant damage, which is actually a big debuff.
Use ASIs on Str then cha if you are going for lifedrinker. Could consider Elemental Adept Fire if going heavy warlock build.
With the paladin 6/warlock 14 you can ride around whipping people with your chain (lance mechanically) dealing 1d12+12 plus smites twice a round, plus whatever concentration spell you desire, Investiture of Flame for cool points.
With Paladin 11/warlock 9 you can deal 1d12+1d8+7 + smites twice a round, maybe 3 times with haste. Alternatively cast elemental weapon as a 5th spell and deal 1d12+1d8+2d4(fire)+7.
Ride around like crazy, chaining, and burning people. Make sure at some point to cast wall of fire in an area you ride past.:smallcool:
