Ideas For a Paladin Rework

[Rithy255]

Alright look, I think both of us are not talking on the same page here, even though we are talking about the same mitigation, I don't think we have the same content in mind. My previous comment is written with my previous experience in savage and ultimate content, where both tanks are going to take 250.000 damage in a single hit ( DSR ) or a 110.000 Tankbuster Damage followed by 33.000 x 5 DoT damage that totals to 275.000 Damage (P7S). If we are talking about that level of content, then PLD quite surprisingly have better mitigation tools compared to WAR/DRK/GNB in a single large hit tankbuster, and for DoT based tankbuster PLD is still beating DRK/GNB with WAR only be able to beat PLD if Thrill of Battle is off cooldown.

I also have the numbers to back up my statement that Intervention isn't just a Holy Shelltron for a friend. If you are willing to discuss it further then I would be happy to crunch the numbers for you

I don't think You can view Intervention as a extra because it's so heavily tied to Holy Shelltron, If you split HOC or TBN one that has a similar effect, both share the same Cooldown on a ally, while on paper it would be a extra CD, it's really not, if you made Holy shelltron targetable and removed intervention they would bassically serve the same purpose as it currently does (maybe reduce the recast to be 2 seconds).

Storing Oath at 100, is generally like having 2 stacks of your Gauge spenders, you can spread out its uses to both tanks but it will also take longer to get both back, of course it's a massive benefit and I won't try to underplay it, I wouldn't know the exact numbers but people generally say PLD takes the most general damage out of all the tanks.

Would be nice to know the exact numbers, To be fair I haven't played ultimate content PLD's mitigations are pretty different that it might work out better in some sorts of content, But generally what I've heard is that PLD's the weakest tank and it does generally seem to show, It's undeniable that some of its "advantages" are very situational and clunky, abilites such as cover exist, DV while strong doesn't need to be clunky, passage doesn't need to be either, even if it's "acceptable in x content"
