It's because they are referencing KC lcy/velks ent groups where mobs are all over the place. So yea, some extra roots/heals can be helpful. But in reality I think it's just enabling the support classes to slack off more, so that necro can /pet attack and cast splurt on mobs dieing in < 30 seconds and the cleric can watch netflix and toss a cheal every once in awhile.

Sk will bring more dps to the table, unlock more group content with FD, and can rip aggro on incoming mobs safer/faster with DC than blind/stun. I have a pally, but I'd rather play my SK in 95% of situations. They are a better overall class, and there's a reason you have 4-5 times more sks on at a time than pallies. Pallies biggest edge is collecting soulfire dkp in the raid scene.

Imagine referencing slacking off in a video game as a negative thing , hope that helps.

Imagine thinking what you did in the raid scene meant anything, hope that helps!

It's crazy how different some opinions can be because I have both a paladin and SK and would take my pally in 95% of the situations, the 5% being the rare time where my group is guaranteed wiping and that FD would come in handy, lol.

I think the problem is people just get defensive about the characters they like. Paladins and Shadowknights are pretty close in terms of what they bring to the table in a group. So honestly you could go either way if you have both and have a great time in most cases.

The question is not "which one is miles ahead better"? The question is which one has an edge. The answer is Shadowknight simply because they have a more specialized toolkit that is harder to come by, and quite useful.

That doesn't mean Paladins are bad, or groups are dropping Paladins for SK's at an alarming rate. It just means realistically speaking Paladins have a less unique toolkit, and therefore bring a bit less to the table. Now of course you could have a group where you have a lower tier healer, such as a Druid, so Paladin backup heals would be more necessary. But at that point you can't really argue about efficiency, as that group already has inefficient healing.

It's a bad thing when Mr. Entitlement wants to sit around doing nothing being carried while someone else does all the work. It's a multiplayer game, and your groupmates are people, not AI bots, so you owe it to your teammates to put forth fair effort or else you should stay home.

I like 'em both. Paladin's my historic character from the original game and my first character I made on P99 years ago. Shadowknight has become my main character on P99 since about 2012 or so. Still the only two classes in this game I truly like.

Paladin is a bad warrior + a couple niche roles of its own

Sk is a bad warrior with fd and a pet for trainouts

The real end game is fashion quest, pick whichever one you think looks cooler

The paladin epic is easier to complete.
