I'll drop some parses here next time I'm allowed to raid on my Paladin. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Well, yeah, a pally with 41% haste and the epic is good. Any class is good with gear. However, if it's your first character on this server, would you seriously recommend someone to roll paladin?

Raid tanking is pretty much going to be left to the warriors. However there are benefits to being a paladin:

1. A character decked out in plate with a fiery sword looks awesome.
2. For most of your lower leveling career you will hold agro better than warriors over those twinks.
3. You are a tank, there have been plenty of times when this server has had a shortage.
4. If you ever make it that far you can rez 90%, which is pretty good.
5. Not much gear competition on class items, this includes even epic mobs.
6. LoH is awesome and will save you and might prevent a group/raid wipe.
7. You can heal others, not amazingly, but you can do it.
8. You are much less dps than a monk but you are less of an xp hole than an in iksar monk and can snap agro better.
9. Some decent clickable healing from helm and BP.


You really should play what you enjoy. There are some pros and negatives to every class and you might have some pros that other classes have but not all have.

Paladins are an amazing grouping class. Sorry if you don't think so.

Their gear is also rock bottom price on this server.

In Velious they are just straight sick when geared out.

That is all/all.

clearly not a dps class... but some paladins suck more than others I guess? ^^ /shrug

[Tecmos Deception]

Paladins have been able to complete their epic without being in TMO or having to shell out big plat for MQs. That's pretty cool. There's also something (and a positive something, imo) to be said for being the rarest class in the game.

There is an inordinate amount of hate for the paladins going on here. Next time guild raids (prolly tonight) I'll post the parse results (or the part paladins are there for) of paladins present, myself, and the highest melee dps present to get an idea. I'll also ask about the paladin(s) haste items and post weapons. So far I've been least impressed with Shadowknight dps.
