Paladins are hindered by race choices compared to other tank classes. Paladins can be Dwarf, Erudite, Human, Half-elf, and High Elf. Tunare Paladins are scumbags. Shadowknights have Ogre/Troll/Iksar to consider from a min-max perspective, and Troll/Ogre starting stats crush Paladin race choices. We got hosed on racial choices compared to other tanks.
Basically Dwarf is the best because of their starting stats, barrel roll, being small, and being elite. Erudite is semi-cool because Prexus is a pretty cool god and they are rare. Humans have amazing staches.
The Tunare sword is cool looking and all, but the epic is better and not too hard to obtain. There are a lot of ToV knight weapons and the Darkmetal Falchion from hate is pretty legit and easy to loot. Even the Tunare Paladins admit they only use their dumb 2her to look cool. But being an elf is already a net negative on looking cool despite wielding a baller sword.
