I think a lot of this hate towards the Paladin on this server stems from a lack of experience with grouping with them since there's truly so few actively tanking high level groups.
Epic proc (155dmg dd & stun), secondary weapon proc Divine Might (65dmg dd), and 120+ dex lays down some very fine dps and aggro. Yaulp caps STR at 255 easily allowing for 192+ dmg swings. 41% sky belt + ench haste? Now you're really spitting out "leet" paladin DPS. In low 50s dwarf paladin can break 4k hp 1k ac (buffed) thanks to such great itemization. Stat wise the Paladin can get pretty damn solid.
Cycle the 90dmg & 60dmg stuns along with bash (can bash with FE & FD) & epic proc stun (very short stun but epic procs A LOT) you can keep mobs on spell lock down easily. Not to mention a slowed mob will hardly ever hit you...
583 hp heal... 800HP in self buffs... 58ac in self buffs... DA... 90% rez... loh... cancel magic... resist magic... 260+ undead nuke... pacify pulls... root CC... instant snap aggro... zomg paladin
