While mounted on your steed, you can make any spell you cast that targets only you also target your steed.

 

I was curious what spells from the Paladin list qualify for this?

 As an Oath of Glory Paladin, being able to caste haste on the steed and yourself at once is crazy fun.  A warhorse that can use its two actions to dash and disengage (assuming your using the controlled mount rules) lets you zip around 210 feet per round while you take three attacks.  And thanks to the disengage, no opportunity attacks on you or the steed.

Will there be an option to add a summoned Paladin mount to your character sheet anytime soon or is it just using the Extras/Familiar option and customizing the notes?

What are the requirements for a creature to be used for Find Steed?

With this spell, is there any reason not to chose the warhorse? It is CR 1/2, while everything else is CR 1/8 or 1/4, and it is the fastest of all of them. The only reason I would see not to (other than character concept/roleplay) is that it might not fit in buildings, while the pony or mastiff can.

The steed summoned with this spell, and Find Greater Steed lasts until killed, or the caster dismisses it. Otherwise, the mount will not be unsummoned. The spell only summons the steed, and isn't needed to maintain the steed's existence, much like a familiar from Find Familiar.

Should be first level

Technically, a large creature can "squeeze" through a medium space, thus a warhorse could go into a building, though it might look funny/not be taken well by the locals.

Your steed serves you as a mount, both in combat and out, and you have an instinctive bond with it that allows you to fight as a seamless unit. While mounted on your steed, you can make any spell you cast that targets only you also target your steed.

The wording is unclear here, but is a spell cast under this clause affecting both paladin and mount simultaneously, or does the description imply that a paladin can target either themselves OR the mount for each cast?

 It means any spell your Paladin casts that would usually only affect yourself can also affect the Steed if you so choose, BUT only as long as you are mounted on the Steed at the time of casting

- If you cast Shield of Faith on yourself while riding your Steed, both yourself and the Steed get the +2 AC

- If you cast SoF on yourself before mounting up, the Steed is not Shielded

- If you cast Bless and choose yourself as one of the recipients, the Steed would not be Blessed because the spell does not target only you

Purely as a house rule, we also interpreted this to mean activated spell-like effects, such as Lay On Hands and Channel Divinity. Passive effects such as Divine Health do not transfer, but Auras remain unaffected as the Steed is automatically inside the bubble if you are riding it

my paladin is level 3 yet this spell didn't seem to come up as an option. is there a reason for this?

 Yep, Paladins don't get 2nd Level spells until Level 5

It's a second level spell, which paladins don't get until 5th level

A decent 2nd level spell.

But by 5th level 19 hp is gone almost in 1 hit.

Not worth the second level spell slot unless you have means of keeping it alive reliably. 

Can I summon an Elephant with Find Steed or do I need Find Greater Steed to do so?

My paladin recently got a +2 lance so...

Question: It says that the range is 30 ft., and the steed appears "in an unoccupied space within range."

Can that "space" be 30 ft straight up in the air?

On a totally unrelated note:

How much damage would a warhorse falling from 30 feet up do if it landed on an enemy?

Yes, any space is fine. It would say "any point on the ground within range" otherwise.

Even a bulky creature like a warhorse isn't solid like a boulder, and its weight is distributed roughly evenly across each leg. I'd give it and the target the usual 3d10 bludgeoning damage, with the caveat that a horse falling from that distance is going to probably break a leg as well.

Last point though, this spell has a 10-minute cast time, so it's not combat-effective. If you've restrained somebody for long enough to drop a steed on their head, you probably should've just used a Smite instead of invoking Rube Goldberg.

 Why do paladins get 2nd level spell slots until level 5 that's so sad

Because they're half casters

I wasn't actually looking for an answer, I already know why it is, I'm just pointing out that it's very sad because you can't use this until level 5

Would Spirit Guardians being cast on my character, like a 9th level Oath of the Crown Paladin work on the Steed? So if I dismount, would it still retain its own spirits until the spell ends? The target is self for the spell, but it has a range of 15ft.
