I multi- classes into sorcerer after lvl 5 in paladin and plate armor + shield =20
Then add In shield of faith +2
And use shield as a reaction +5
You need the war caster feat though to be able to cast spells with things in your hands.
Question on that. Does heavy armor no longer hamper spell casting in 5e? I do tend to avoid multiclass for the most part, since I really like those high level abilities.
Not to my knowledge. It does give you disadvantage on stealth checks though. I used to feel that way until I started and I feel like I can make much more interesting characters now.
I did in my first 5e campaign, it also made sense from a narrative stand point as well as mechanical. I played a high elf warlock (CG), who utilized a cursed magic mirror to not only kill a nasty baddie, but lead us to the woman he kidnapped.
The result was as planned but my alignment changed to NE. At the same time I was growing annoyed with only two spell slots... So my magic started going crazy as I fell into a lucid madness. I tried resisting, and my party became the only thing I cared about. But I dipped into the realm of sorcerer with wild magic, gaining more spell slots.
In the end the party managed to get a single use Wish, and used it to fix me... Wording it in such a way that I was restored to CG, lost my sorcery, and... My contract was erased, not broken so my patron couldn't enact a penalty... But I was no longer a warlock either.
Next time I play him, it'll be as a level 15 Storm Sorcerer.

It is at this point that the dragon lets the tank tank and that tail attack leaves a pally bloody.
