The Definitive State of Paladins Thread

[7hurricane]

A4S isn't the only fight in the game where PLD is suboptimal, I think you'd be more correct to say that A2S is the only current raid fight where PLD is even viable.

My static runs A1S to A3S with PLD and WAR and clears are not an issue. In fact, before I had a static, I never saw DRK in savage at all. This is, of course, only my opinion, but PLD perform just hunky dory, and our PLD has never expressed concerns about his ability to do the content.

That said, you may be right about PLD being sub-optimal, but it is definitely more than capable for the first three turns of savage. In all the PLD threads I've read, very few people seem to be complaining about anything but A4S. Many guides and videos also show PLD performing the first three turns just fine as well. Hence why A4S is the only content (current or historic) in the game where PLD is considered by the majority of the community to be not optimal.
