Ya know, I think this is kinda funny. I hear so much from so many people how paladins suck...... we dont lol. I think our class is fine, sure our dps maybe subpar but who really cares? Think most of you need to learn how to play and you may learn that our class is good instead of praying that the devs will make you look that much better by boosting the class to make it easier.

Personally I can play the class (I think my guildmates would say pretty [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] good too), and I am satisfied with what we can do....but the majority of arguments stem from people comparing us to Warriors. Taking out the Warrior comparison and our class is fine. We can tank, we can heal, we can assist...we have our place with no issues.Adding in a comparison to Warriors and the status quo changes.....now there are two ways to look at this. 1) We can be happy with how we are, and not compare ourselves to Warriors2) We can realize the differences between us and Warriors, and take that stance.I am fine with #1 currently because I know my role, and what I excel at. A good player in a subpar class is head and shoulders above a bad player in a good class...others tend to take the stance of #2, because of words that were spoken way back when by MG (that all tanks will be able to do the same equally)..Everyone is entitled to there opinions, some might not be as well informed as others....but some are.

First off we arent warriors. With that being said im not understanding why people compare us to warriors? We are paladins incase some of you have forgotten. You dont need to get all butt hurt just cause we arent warriors. Its ok, really it is.

As far as doing everything equally, that would be terrible if we could, that would just be crap. I like where we are TBH. And noone has seen our Pally AAs in EoF. We may get more offensive but i dont think we should be able to do much more dmg then we already do. WE ARE FINE! Remember one thing we are not warriors. SO who cares if they do something better then we can do. Last time I checked they cant heal, ward, or rez and you dont hear them screaming for pally utility do you?

Hence why I said, take out the Warrior comparison and we are fine......but people are going to compare us to Warriors for the simple fact that we are both plate wearers, and both fighters. Due to having the fighter designation we are considered tanks, cause that is what fighters do.
