Accidently making Paladins fun to play

[Azurro]

<p>Live update 48 "fixed" an issue that Sony apparently had with people having more then one AA mirror in their houses so that they can only have one profile loaded.  While most classes probably won't even notice this change Paladins are one of the few classes that I found the ability to have 3-4 profiles that I could switch between depending on the situation useful.  As a hybrid class having more then two profiles was nice because it let me pick and choice builds based on the content and group makeup I was going to tackle.  Novel concept of actually making someone think and plan out a build for a specific need instead of being forced to play a cookie cutter generic build.</p><p>This isn't the end of the world or anything for Paladins but I feel it is going to hurt our class more then most and does amount to a nerf for Crusaders and all hybrid classes for that matter.  I would highly doubt if most warriors will even notice the change.</p>

eh, I won't even notice it.  I use the same set up for solo, group and raid situations.  More trouble than it is worth, IMO to worry about switching it.

I agree that there are a ton of potential AA set up's for Paladin's, I always wanted the ability to have more then one mirror. When I heard you could, seemed it was a bug so I didn't even try and waited for the fix that was bound to happen.Not so bad though, have 2 AA set up's,  Group PvP/Raiding and Solo PvP. Played around with the ability's enough that I only really need 2 I suppose.

<p>I don't believe that.  SOE deliberately made the mirrors No trade so they had to be commission crafted but left the Lore tag off.  It is obvious that day 1 they intended people to be able to have more then one in their homes even if they didn't advertise the fact.  It was only afterward when the usefulness to a small number of classes like Paladins and what was probably a mistaken increase in drop rate of the raw that they started to talk about this being unintended.  The only unintended thing about this was making something that benefited Paladins more then their beloved Warrior class.  I have been playing this game from day 1 and I have been forced to the conclusion that Sony has no intension of letting the Paladin get on equal ground as a tank compared to Guardians.  There have been tons of good feedback as to ways they could improve the class without making us overpowered but what has come out of it?</p>

<p>actually, I do believe it was stated that you were only supposed to be able to switch between 2 different AA setups back when it was released, so yes, it WAS a bug.</p><p>As for the comment, if you can't tank, that is your problem, not the classes, I tank just fine thank you.</p>
