Raid Paladins...Born followers.

[lik]

I have seen alot of the same raiding Paladins in the top raid guilds. You all have been following Guardians around for 3-4 years and are still not the MT? I have seen raid guards in your guilds quit the game and you happily continue to be followers of a new guard.  If you guys dont have what it takes to be main tanks plz play another class. IMO, the soe team looks at who and what class is playing the "MT" roll and that class gets all the Tank abilities. "guard mythical" "paladin mythical" . The Guard mythical is a weapon ever plate fighter in the game wishes they had. Wardens think the paladin mythical would be nice so they could solo more.

<p>at first this post really made me angry.  I considered many nasty things to reply with here.  but after a long cooldown and a breif review of the topics you have created, i see that you are merely posting here to complain and stir up trouble.  from your previous posts i can see that you are the guy who yells fire in the movie theater and watches the ensuing chaos. </p><p> fact is that despite the superior tanking abilities of the gaurdians, Pallies have carved themselves a niche in the top tier raid guilds.  there is no doubt that many of us are not particularly happy with our epics, some of our aa's seem pointless.  itemization has left hybids behind.  but don't denegrate the efforts of many dedicated players who rise above these challenges and shine in spite of them.</p><p> if you are that upset with the game please do everyone a favor and REALLY quit.  this time for good.</p><p>here are some examples of your malcontent.</p><p><a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=417602" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...topic_id=417602</a></p><p><span style="color: #006600;">Almost 1,000 more lvl 80 Guardians than lvl 80 Berzerkers World Wide. I thought the class with fewer numbers got "love". The soe team refuses to let any other plate tank take hold of the raid MT roll. Quite honestly,  IMO that will be the down fall of the Plate tanks in this game. Once a Guard gets his 2nd piece of class gear from VP. That will make them the best off tanks also IMO. 60 seconds off of reinforcement. That a joke?   Hit a Guard with jesters cap and adds will never get by him. Any adds that do get by, he can just plant them...errr that makes me mad. Best MT in game- best OT in game, From the raid parses i have seen lately. They are the best dps plate tank now also.  What "variety" way to go. All the other plate tanks are so happy for the Guards. </span></p><p><span style="color: #006600;"><a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?start=0&topic_id=351610�" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...351610�</a></span></p><span style="color: #006600;"><p>Really?

I would have to assume you have been replaced by a Paladin in some way shape or form.  If not you are a troll and I call for your immediate ban, unless the mods are playing AOC.

Good lords...if being a Paladin is such a hardship and causes so much anguish for you...<b><i>reroll.</i></b>

A thread such as this really is not constructive and just serves to stir up the community (as displayed here).  Thread closed.As for the people choosing to namecall and fling insults of your own, tsk, tsk.  I understand it can be tempting sometimes, but there is a "Report this post to a moderator" that only one person from the community appears to have used in this case (and otherwise did not participate in the thread).
