If they switched the levels of Flash and Circle of Scorn Paladin would be an aggro queen, and feel amazing while leveling.

Flash has always felt like a gimmick because it doesn't do damage and is barely visible. It just feels weird using, even though you can almost spam it. I know it applies blind, but it FEELS like it is just 'yelling a yo momma joke' at them...

It took me a LONG time to commit to leveling paladin because the low level play of the job is horrible compared to the other tanks... but once I broke past 40, and then especially 50 - I find it a lot funner than the other choices. But they really need to smooth out the leveling experience of the class.

At 50+, I find the 'rotation' very smooth and I seem to never not have some form of mitigation, threat gain, or DPS gain ready to go on my action bar. I feel like I chain pull more easily than on the other classes (on warrior I have to manage my TP often, and on DRK I have yet to master managing my MP and end up having problems with snap aggro when somebody runs ahead to grab adds...).

But Paladin... I can just control the map at will, on demand, with no limits.

I don't like Shield Bash - it seems to never be 'ready' when I see a cast I want to interrupt going off. I don't have the same issue with Brutal Swing and Low Blow. I'm not sure why. It is probably in my head... but it always 'feels' like it is not available... That is my only complaint about the class that stays after level 40...
