Savage Alexander and the Paladin Exodus

[Sapphic]

Paladin is in the same situation for Alex savage as Dragoons where with Final coil.

SE didn't expect or plan for us to be clearing a4s anywhere close to when it was. They expected it to take several more cycles of esoterics caps before we were capable. The only reason it was accomplished was because everyone in the clearing parties pushed massive dps. Pld is capable of clearing a4s at the ilevels the fight was tuned for, but to say that a class is worthless because it can't go above and beyond what the developers thought possible is silly.

All pld needs to shine again is for the game to start adding fights that require tanks to take harder hits instead of push dps to reach absurd checks. This can be done without massive buffs or nerfs to any class

No, it just highlights the discrepencies between the 3 tanks.

By thinking as you are Warrior never would've had buffs in 2.0 as WARs could clear First coil after gearing up much more than PLDs where clearing it.

PLD are highlighted as being lower in DPS than DRK and WAR because of the additional mitigation with the shield. The shield does nothing against Magic damage. So even if full geared 210 they will be less effective where the damage is solely Magical in comparison to WAR and DRK.

AKA, in Savage PLD has the lowest DPS AND the worst mitigation.

BTW what turn in Alex savage are you upto? Just wondering.
