Because PLD in Sword Oath is pretty even in DPS when compared to a DRK while taking noticeably less physical damage. They were mostly limited before due to lack of hate forcing them to use Rage of Halone, now they have increased hate & DPS through Shield Swipe moving to oGCD. The reason for not shoving a WAR into the MT slot is obviously that DRK/PLD see a damage bonus where WAR does not. LB building will become more of an issue in future raids where they intend to reduce the success of parties who stack jobs.

That's some high-level over-dramatization. Paladins are below the other tanks, Paladins have a lot of issues, but Paladins are still able to clear the content. This thing sounds like the job is completely unplayable, useless and unable to do anything at the point where the character is suiciding. That's some emo disney princess shit.

You guys might be over-reacting to the Voice Acting.

That's all it is, voice acting and venting his frustrations. Don't take it so seriously, the guy isn't gonna kill himself over this. Honestly I think someone talked to him and he's happy as ever with PLD, hyped even.

Still playing paladin through all of this. Has it's issues, but still able to clear everything in game. Put as much effort in to winning as you do in to crying and you may get better results.

The whole thing is very clearly roleplaying for the immersion.....it amazes me that people are shitting on the guy, meanwhile they themselves are smothered in power fantasies and their suspension of disbelief is so strong that they ACTUALLY believe that in the real world a huge axe or tower sword would be somehow effective in combat.

The heaviest a weapon like an axe or sword EVER weighed was around 8 pounds (greatsword or not.) It's also hilarious that people consider an ancient smooth bore rifle projectile design to be even remotely close to piercing like its modern day Boat Tail Tungsten Tip equivalent. Ball rounds, like those found in muskets (smooth bore,) relied on sheer velocity to tear through an object.and left cavities the size of the round. They were in no way an efficient means of ending someone's life quickly. Coincidentally ball rounds also weren't (and still aren't) at all great for anything over light armor penetration (an example of light armor would be SAPI Plates that the various armed forces use for their infantry personnel.) Heavy armor in today's world that's equivalent to plated mail of medieval times would be something like AR500 steel. You can shoot hundreds, maybe even thousands of "small arms" rounds into this heavy armor and it won't show any signs of failure to protect. If you're wondering, small arms is a term used for what today's infantry units posses on their body (M4, M16, M200, M40, M249 SAW, etc.) The pistols MCH use are appropriately considered to be small arms.

Again, guys, it's just roleplaying. Fantasy for fun. It's not fun to shit on people for having fun and developing character depth, backstory, immersive plot relevance for speeches, etc.

EDIT: Fucking literally has #Storytelling, #Voice Acting, #Narrative as descriptive contextual clues to his content.

EDITII: An M200 weapons system is most certainly not small arms. It's an anti-material rifle that fires .408 Cheyenne cartridges. My apologies for the mistake. I meant to say M40 since it's a .308/7.62 cartridge. Nomenclature is hard lol.

LMAO. I lost it at "Don't worry, your Galvanize is more than enough."

Hitler bought every Paladin Eso piece (which means he probably hasn't even passed A1S) and is complaining about being a detriment to Savage parties in 3.1.

Remember kids, Hitler was a bad guy.
