The Problem(s) with Paladin

[Vaer]

question is: what do ppl really want pld to be?

A job that isn't shunned and can be taken seriously.

Great summary. +1

Their response: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A passive last stand sort of mechanic that protects from one shots would make up for the lower amount of HP. Something that brings your HP to 1 if something would otherwise kill you. Would have to be on a long cooldown of course.

Or a reverse Vengeance sort of mechanic that applies a stacking buff every time you block that mitigates all incoming damage including magic by 1% stacking up to 10 times maybe.

Don't know. Reading tons of these PLD threads is kind of depressing.
