So, if these are to be believed, Paladin looks as though it as getting as I expected all along: Magic based AoE, shield gap closer, and more utilities.

I really do hope these are true. the DRK ones look interesting, but no dark arts, which is what people were complaining about (Honestly, I didn't mind it at all, gave you control over what your damage enhancements were going to be).

Wonder if Syphon Strike survived the great skill purge of 5.0.
