"Base/Simple" stigma of Paladin and how we must deal with it/prepare for the future.

Monk's DK + Divine Veil > Delirium in terms of mitigating the raid damage of Cascade

You can get Reprisal up for nearly every Cascade as well (at least as many as you could divine veil, in my experience), and that doesn't require an outside class. I wouldn't say that DRK's raid utility is particularly strong, though.

Paladin, however, at least seems to be designed to be viewed as having this awesome utility, but it doesn't. Paladin does have a lot of utility abilities, but they're all kinda weak. The reasons why they're weak can basically be broken down into: cooldown too long, too niche, general unwieldiness, or some combination of the above. The worst thing about Divine Veil, though, is that they made this exact same mistake when they first released the ability in 1.x. The cooldown's way too long for the effect you get.
