Gravitian the Defender, 3rd pass
Build 1 was a strict martial tank aiming for damage resistance, AC via Barbarian Unarmored Defense, and Cavalier Fighter battlefield control. Build 2 dumped all battlefield control options in favor of lots of Divine Smite slots - but without much regard for maximizing slot levels or Warlock invocations.

But the real aim of the Smiter design is to exploit critical hits. 1 Hexblade's Curse per short rest, 1 Faerie fire per long rest, and 13 Str for Shove doesn't make much of a crit fisher. So I think a Build 3 is in order.
