..Is this really how Paladins feel? I was a PLD main going into 3.0 but am currently maining DRK. This makes me glad I changed even before Savage haha this is so heart wrenching </3

Not surprised that a person maining PLD would make something like this.

Take that for what you will.

I wouldn't necessary say PLD is dead, but it has its issues. Unfortunately, the current theme of top endgame is strict dps checks and that's PLD's weakness so people will obviously bring a DRK/WAR over it.
Also the tp bleed is too insane on PLD

Nah. That's just for the vocal minority who think absolute performance is more important than being your role.

I am not a Warrior. I am not a Dark Knight. I am a Paladin, the Rock upon which Darkness breaks...

IMO everyone just stop playing this job if it is broken. SE will fix it ONLY if ppl not playing it. ^^;
When this job is fixed, everyone will play this job again and you have missed the chance to enjoy the overpower of other jobs.

I'll take it a step further and point out how really selfish this sounds when listened to in a certain context. He wants to be the star of the show and envies other people their loot. Dat awkward subtext.

Plds have cleared A4s at this point. If you couldn't convince anyone to even bring you into A1s, either they're dingbats, in which case you're fine without them, or the problem lies with you as a player.

My healer when we first started A1s actually pushed for me to drop war for pld, because "wars are harder to heal".

I like it!

To each his own, I still enjoy my main job as Paladin. That's all that really matters to me.

That's some guy who quit because he couldn't cut it end game, has nothing to do with PLD. This new patch is looking pretty good for PLD. Shield Swipe changes will make up for their lack of enmity in Sword oath while increasing overall MT DPS, and the TP reduction on Goring will help extend their TP in all situations.

I still enjoy pld as a subjob. People in df get so confused when I try to say I would rather OT because pld OT with war/drk MT is more raid damage. XD It's the state of the class atm. It isn't good or alright, but it is what it is. The class can still perform at cutting edge levels when working as a part of a whole with a ninja and drk MT, and its defensive cd's can let a smart party cheese mechanics they can't with another comp.

Even without full team cooperation, if you just try it's easy to outdps a lot of df tanks. Most people would rather just hang it up and pout than try to excel, though.

Sword oath in MT DPS... in this case why not going as a WAR/DRK..
unless someone only has PLD lvl and think it is enough as a tank ^^;
