At least, assuming an even redistribution of classes in the "delete X class from the game" idea.

Paladin is worse at soloing than Mage, worse at duoing, worse for full groups the majority of the time, and generally less impactful for raids. They have a huge EXP penalty the first 22 months of the game. They do not have any unique ability that's especially impactful to the landscape of the game. By every metric they are the weaker class.

And seriously, you need to stop with these dumb "a lot of people don't play that way" arguments. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THEY DON'T. THEY ARE PLAYING AT A LOWER POWER LEVEL. WHAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND.
I do understand. You are skewing the data by injecting your personal preference of how you play, rather than how the average player plays. When thinking about "most underpowered class", you have to use the averages, not your preferred data set. On P99 people generally play the game correctly. It isn't like we are dealing with a server where everybody is playing solo Warriors lol.

Again, this is why the conversation isn't going anywhere. You are off topic. Your topic is "most underpowered class assuming you are attempting to play at Zuranthium's definition of efficiency".
