Once velious comes out they become very much a needed class; they tank pretty much any fearing dragon due to fearless and they get brells a much needed raid buff.

At the moment though they leave much to be desired

Hybrids in general become more useful in Velious. Bard is the only good one in Kunark just because of resists. SKs can be okay. Min-maxers will make your life hard here.

So should I even bother to stick with Pal or SK? just wondering cuss I'd rather not deal with eliteist bullcrap, I got enough of that when I was raiding hardcore on live.

If you're worried about mix maxxers then no it probably wouldn't be worth gonig SK.

otherwise go Sk and have a blast!

play what you want to play! a huge benefit of knights is that the gear is really cheap. at high levels nobody really cares what type of tank they can scrounge up as long as you can take some hits =)

most people who play melees just want to press auto-attack and wait for that AOE mez and CH to come in. if you want to do a bit more than that play a knight. if you're fine without having any magical powers whatsoever (and really expensive gear on a gear-dependent class) roll a war.

on p99 very few people have nice, useful, and intelligent things to say, so if you roll a warrior, monk, or rogue without gear you're gonna get griefed. if you roll a knight you're gonna get griefed because you "should have" rolled an ogre warrior with x gear y gear and z gear, which would need to be funded by h.g. pennypacker. its a catch-22 really!

updating thread, so far ive went through to 11 on this paladin. Feels like what gear i could gather doesnt matter much in lower levels until ovious plate items/ better spells etc?
Not to mention plat seems hard to come by for some reason, anything i could farm or look out for?

I would try to camp the sisters in Lfay that drop the bronze weapons for plat. You can kill them till 18 then move to unrest to maximize you potential. Once you hit 20-22 you can start soloing there. There is easy to get loot all over unrest so you shouldn't have many plat issues. If you need anything shoot me a message. Always willing to help a fellow pally.

EZ to solo pally to 40ish in unrest. Pally is a fun class. Only play classes you like. You have to RP a little bit to enjoy it, minmaxnot so fun.

Pally easiest tank to level solo by far, in my opinion the lack of needing a group makes up for the exp penalty you have over a warrior.

Fun class too I think it's worth the trouble.
