One of the most unique classes is the World of Warcraft Palidin as it combines physical strength with magic creating a very powerful force. The Paladin is the most popular class as it is considered the holy warrior that is highly capable at melee fighting, healing, spell-casting, tanking, as well as taking hits for other players. It is recommended to play the Palidin at least once. One Paladin a group is usually needed for a successful endgame.
Getting Started
Choosing the race for your character is important. Although Elves and humans are popular choices, your options are pretty open as the paladin is a hybrid class. Starting with a race you are most comfortable with is a good idea.
Excelling as a Paladin is quite easy if you’ve mastered both weaponry and healing. If you are unsure of which profession you would want to try, and which style or warfare would best suit you, this would be the perfect class for you. Trying both ranged and warfare can help you decide which exactly is best for you.
You will want to manage your mana properly as Paldins rely greatly on this. As you cast a spell or emerge from a battle, your mana diminishes, resulting in a loss of health points. Thus, you must take care not to lose too much of it, since it does take a while to replenish it if it drops too low.
The Paladin’s Tools
This class has some distinctive tools that can be added to your usual armor and weapons. These tools are beneficial to the whole group. The following explains each tool according to their use:
Auras – This can protect the group within a 30 yard radius. It is very effective especially when used during the conducting of a raid. Having multiple Paladins in a group using auras is the best way to use this tool as it can be very powerful. Otherwise, you can only use one per time.
Seals – This is a special kind of spell used by the Paladins for regeneration or in order to increase one’s skills during a battle. Like auras, you can only use it one at a time. However, proper management of this spell can come in very handy. This may also be used against enemies as it would have the opposite effect of what it does for you, on the enemy. Example, if it brings you health, it may deplete the health of your enemy.
Blessings – It is a very powerful tool of the Paladins. This can be used by a Paladin to bestow certain gifts on themselves or even to a group. It can also provide extra strength, health, and skills for some cases, and can last up to about 15 minutes more or less.
