It has come to my attention that paladin are quite underpowered... for a few reasons.
First of all there is no new weapons you can get for them. I've been using the same weapon since I started this character. The only other weapon I've seemed to find was a silkweaver bow which only adds 3% hit chance, which obviously doesn't help much. I'm sure there is probably better ammunition I can buy but it will be so expensive, it's hard enough just to make money for potions..not to mention making arrows now cost mana making it even harder to hunt..oh yeah and paladins miss a good bit....
Secondly words said by you " over 70% of the walkable tiles of the server are located underground" which means most of the hunting will be underground. Because of it being underground that means there's no room for paladins to run, dragon spawn is very tight, and other places I'm sure and yes you could trying running but you'd just lore more to you and end up dying.
Third and lastly there is no paladin weapon you can buy with zinc coins which is quite depressing. I know I already went over you with this but xemos said he was offered a bow but instead he took the axe. If he was offered a bow doesn't that mean it should be accessible? It should be added asap if you don't mind..
Please take what I said into consideration, I know there is a few who will at least agree on some aspects of this post.
Thank you!
