The Problem with Paladin

[Brannigan]

Well, Hallowed Ground doesn't fade on moving (that was in the old preview I think) but Chimera's breaths aren't physical so it ends up being not that amazing there anyway. I haven't really had threat problems that I know of as paladin (I think the new flat blade combo bonus contributes a lot) but warrior dishes out equal enmity while doing quadruple gla's damage and having more HP.

Succor is a good spell on paper but while actually tanking you're likely to be topped up by white mages and waste your time/mp casting it. Veil/Cover are similar in that if your party members are doing well they lose a lot of their power. I think Cover's best use is on a Flare-casting black mage in a big AOE pack or something but Collusion does that better. Spirits Within is a really weak weapon skill considering the power of the other job WSes. Disembowel is just alright but adds Paralysis and Dragon Kick, Ring of Talons, Rain of Death, and Steel Cyclone are all awesome... and they're all on shorter recasts than Spirits.
