Well if the devs, or the producer doesnt say anything in the upcoming letter, then we will know they dont listen to their players.

I do think the devs know what's going on, it is just that there way of looking at it, is different from the player base. I think they will make changes to PLD, but not in the way we would like it to-be. I don't think they will rework the PLD like they done the WAR at all.

Left my Paladin to play Warrior and Dark Knight. Class needs a full rework honestly. Not even sure number buffs can save it. Its just boring as tears.

Defending against attacks need to be fun and rewarding (see: World of Warcraft Active Defenses).

Oh you fairweather paladins, you so silly. I will be Paladin forever but I wouldn't mind some updates to things. They did it for war in 2.o when people felt it was lacking.

Many of the people changing are doing so because either 1) they have a raid team and feel that continuing to play Paladin would hold that team back, or 2) want to have a raid team and aren't convinced that a Paladin would be recruited into one. I know I'm at a point where my static is on the cusp of downing A2S, and I actually kind of dread A3S progression. They wouldn't dream of asking me to switch; we've talked about it a bit and the general consensus is that if I enjoy Paladin and feel more comfortable as a Paladin than a Dark Knight then I should stay as a Paladin. One went as far as to say that the feeling was 'all in my head'. It doesn't change the fact that I feel like continuing to play Paladin may be a detriment because the class is somewhat lacking atm. :/

I'm waiting to see if 3.1 brings us any appreciable changes to make the class more comparable to the other two tanks.

Signed and sealed.

I also wrote a topic about it in this forum too and a letter towards SE in-game hopefully they will change the current Meta!!!

[Taiyoji]

Yes please. Most importantly for aggro, TP, and to make it so all tanks can favor fending gears. Thank you!

Tired of WAR having zero downsides while PLD gets the shaft in everything. Name one downside to WAR..........well?.........I'm waiting..........

Warriors are in a very good place, which is what we should be striving for. Good threat generation, good ability to survive, and good AoE.

I don't want the DPS of a Warrior, as I enjoyed the "bunker" mentality of a Paladin, but I also don't want it to be so much of a disparity that I'm dragging my group down in the process.
