I partied with a shadowknight yesterday down in guk, because of their ability to drain compared to heal, they could keep up the action without tiring the cleric out.(I was not the cleric in this party). A paladin in the same situation would lose time healing, and as such, would make the party clunkier. You could argue ghoulbane or some other shenanigans but there's a clear difference between SK and Pal.

SKs have a slight edge over Pallys but this is definitely not why. And you are clearly making this story up because an SK relying on consistently lifetapping to avoid killing the Cleric's mana will kill it's own mana kind of quickly and then have to med up. It's also not a viable strategy as you level up for the pure reason that the SK lifetaps aren't level equivalent for the content they are doing and therefore will be insufficient later on.
