As a long time Paladin, I had always hopeed SE would add the following improvements to Paladin:

1.) Paladin needs Reprisal to have the same Recast as Foil.
2.) Rampart needs to be as good as Valiance/One for All, or provide a significant buff to the rest of the party.
3.) Paladin needs improved Damage capablities (Without WSD+10% armor, this is going to be a challenge, so I recommend improving atonement CONSIDERABLY).
4.) Invincible, should really make you invincible. Period.
5.) The Cover ability used to be a very important play-style in level 75-era, but these days, you cannot convince any DD player to patiently position themselves behind a Paladin.
6.) Yes, Shields do need a significant upgrade. Instead of augments to shields, which have been done to REMA weapons, I would like to see ilvl Aegis and Ochain shields with a unique USABLE effect. Using an ochain on oneself, could bestow Paladin with the a new "Reflect" spell. This Reflect effect could be more potent if a PLD has a certain amount of Magic Evasion, when used, for example.

Come on SE, help Paladins be great again!
