The Problem(s) with Paladin

[Fiosha_Maureiba]

I think I like the idea of an AoE damage mitigation aura that lets melee party members enjoy the fray more.

I think an Obsess-like ability for all damage could be nice. Paladin places "Obsess" on one enemy, with a sustained damage reduction of all types from that target. Drawbacks may include reduced block rate against all other targets, reduced enmity against other targets, gradual TP consumption to maintain, or the old penalty of taking more damage from all other targets.
