Thread: Pld buff or War nerf in 1.22?

Paladin and Warrior should both stay being viable tanking jobs. Warrior defense isn't an issue nor is its crazy amount of hp or amount of sustainable damage. Each class played correctly can maintain hate in either solo or group battles, but each excels in each category. Warrior for groups since it does hold hate better by being able to take only moderate damage regardless of blocking/parry and Paladin for single targets which all of you know or should.

Paladin and Warrior abilities are fine as they are, what needs adjusting is the base groundwork stat wise on Paladin. Paladin should get an innate 15-20% damage reduction like i read in another post I read recently which sure sounds like a lot, but really it isn't. Ifrit for example just because its easy math since Warrior and Paladin take same dmg; If each class were to be hit for 800 dmg, Pld should only take 640 dmg then the additional block damage reduction(if it activates...which doesn't happen very often) As well as a HP pool of roughly 4000. Neither is outrageous by any means. Paladin does not do as much damage as a Warrior in any given situation, although paladin should take less damage and have close to the same amount of HP to make it a more reliable tank for those high level mobs.

I would love to see pld be a better healer to DD to make close range combat a more viable option in more battles.

they must leave the nerf thing on jobs/classes they need to buff classes to balance not make them suck in the next patch...

I agree... this would help

I don't see why Warrior got so many tank abilities when jobs came out. I like being a Warrior to off tank or tank if the Paladin does die. I hate that Paladin pretty much became obsolete in everything.

As a Warrior, I say nerf Warrior and buff up Paladin. Or take away an ability from Warrior and give it to Paladin. I mean Collusion would have been awesome for Paladin but nope, Warrior got it. le sigh

Honestly I see both incoming. WAR needs a nerf, and I say that as someone who often plays on Warrior.
