You really shouldn't encourage me. I'm just chock full of stupid ideas.

For example: For paladins I would suggest playing up the self-sacrificing angle. It really fits with the psychology of people who want to play paladin from a Role Play perspective.

So maybe some ability with a long cool down that could be used when a group wipe looks likely. It would condem the paladin to certain death but give the others a chance to escape. Like a mega taunt that draws all agro to the paly and gives him major damage mitigation for a brief time but also roots him in place. Simultaneously it gives the other group members a brief invulnerability so they can try to run but also prevents them from attacking or casting spells.

Or...on a less dramatic note, give paladins a new type of buff which can be cast only on one other group member. It would redirect some percentage of incoming damage from that player to the paladin. It wouldn't compete with the buffs other classes have because it's not a hitpoint buff or a AC buff or a damage mitigator or absorber it is a damage redirecter.

Geez, see what you made me do. Ok I'll shut up now.
