When did paladins get XP Rez?

[jwargod]

As the title says, although I first started playing in Luclin, I was never heavily into EQ and aware of its mechanics till PoP. I tried searching for a bit but mostly just get irrelevant articles on paladins getting more then 90% rez, EQ2 news, and Sk Vs Paladin comparions

Any idea when Paladins received XP rezzes?

And on another note, someone got a Tier list for Race combinations for paladins? Or is it Dwarves by far on top?

L59 paladins get the 90%exp rez. I don't remember when they backfilled the paladin spellbook and gave them the 50/75 (was there a 75?) that clerics got between revive and the 90, but it should be post-Velious (AKA you'll only ever see 90% from L59 paladins on P99).

Just FYI, it's a long road to being rez-capable as a Paladin. Very few Paladins ever reach the high level requires for an actual XP rez.

As far as base racial stats, Dwarves blow everyone else out of the water in melee stats and have +magic resistance.

Thanks all for the info!

Wonder how many dwarf paladin twinks have been abandoned on this server.

Base attributes don't really matter much in EQ, even less for the tank classes than the others. Minmaxers spend so much time picking flyshit out of pepper when all that really matters is do you know how to play the character well, do you know how to gear the character appropriately, and most important of all do you have fun playing the character..

Amen

With that in mind, are Those Erudite-only shields pretty common/cheap? Wouldn't mind trying out again if they're reasonably accessible.

The shield is great, but keep in mind your epic becomes vastly less appealing (comparatively to its value for other races) when you consider you have I give that thing up ^^ It is a decent bump in dps (87.5 dmg/dly ratio plus proc vs. .75 w/ no proc for best 1h), but a big hit in stats.

Even if you added just the shield to a naked erudite their stats dont compare to a naked dwarfs.

There's nothing you can add to a dwarf toon to make it look even 1/10th as good as a half-elf or erudite, and base attributes just aren't important in EQ. A guise of the deceiver would help, of course, but they don't drop anymore.

This is true and makes the other gearing issues and epic dilemma all the more poopy. That aside though Erudite Pallies can follow the one true god, The Ocean Lord, Prexus, Beater of Ass.

And we beat ass just as well in his likeness.

Incorrect. A Dwarf can barrel roll. While rolling, they are the coolest looking of all classes. (I was torn in making my pally, until https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFXUYl2ljqI)
