PLD skills?

[Silver_Kupoo]

When aee paladins going to get an aoe attack similar to glory slash?

[Rhaja]

Honestly... they probably won't. Circle of Scorn is an awesome AOE, it's just a shame it takes till level 50 to get it. I'm hoping they'll get more party cover abilities, like a group version of vengeance. At that point I'd almost want my party to pull hate just to get that extra bit of damage going.

But if they did I certainly wouldn't be against it.

To be honest, we don't Need one.
Warrior and Paladin do not Need (and should not) to be the same in everything and right now the only class better then Paladin when it Comes to generating hate on multiple Targets is Warrior (and thats ok).
Flash an CoS is enough for us we can easily hold aggro for groups.

I would rather have a finishing skill for riot blade as well as some defensif buffs for the whole Party similiar to cover. And if I understand the Benchmark Video that is what we get (at least I hope so).

I wouldn't be against it to give PLDs a damage reflect on block passive.

With a PLD tanking, you don't have as much aoe damage as WAR, which is fine, but if PLDs would reflect like 50 potency per block, it could make up some of the difference without taking away the WAR's advantage in aoe dps.
It would also give some use for high block rate(small) shields, a PLD could whip out a small shield for packs of mobs to rack up reflect damage, and then switch to a heavy shield for bosses. As right now, small shields are objectively worse.

Can tie it to Bulwark and that's all you really need tbh.

Divine Veil, Holy Succor and Goring Blade would be pretty sweet to have.

I want those abilities so bad right now ;___;

I wonder how they plan on making these jobs more playable with a game pad. It's already a challenge to play a tank class with a game pad. Adding more abilities will make it even worse. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of new stuff. I just dread trying to manage it all.

I heard mention that the new skills won't fit on our hotbars and they are thinking of a plan.
