Paladins Need Something

I do, however, agree with the idea of learning a 'calling'.. a special spell or ability that defines the type of paladin you are. Only 1 path may be chosen, and it may never be changed. I think that would also add a lot more value to the paladin-economy and contribute to role-playing phenomenally.

Unfortunately, there will be no new major additions to the Nightmist engine, like new spells (I have tried asking JLH and Pandilex privately on a few occasions), so the only new additions that can really be made for the class are new types of equipment, but that always runs the risk of unbalancing them even further (for better or for worse).

Give paladins a 1 'click' attack.
However, it is only usuable on undead/heal damaged npc's. While this ability will not really make a paladin better in pvp, it will make them somewhat more useful and worthwhile playing pve. I still feel paladins have too low a to hit %, but thats not important right now.
Holy Fury
-would act as a rapid fire/berserk type ability.
OR
Slay Undead
-would act as an assassinate/smite type ability.
Also, add a new weapon for paladins:
Library info for Hammer of the Defender:
Base damage: 22, Can be used by: paladins Description: A symbol of any great warrior is his weapon. The Hammer of the Defender is undeniably a fierce weapon in the hands of a holy warrior. Upon attaining Knighthood the Paladin is given this weapon to carry in service to his king. Level needed to equip it: 29, Magical: Yes, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: undead:1.25, Mana leech: .

Paladins generally don't have offensive spells/abilities. They just use their normal attacks and spell them up.Just a thought,
Give paladins a 1 'click' attack.

If anything is going to be added, it should be another "buffing up" spell. But one that actually works...

Paladins underpowered in WoW? Yeah right... I think yours just sucks.As far as being underpowered...look at WoW, paladins suck there too, but thats cuz its an Alliance only class and we all know Alliance sucks.Paladins are so under powered in this game it isnt funny...compaired to most games its just >.>
As for the main topic:
More equipment would be the best addition.
Paladins are holy warriors, that's why they heal average and attack average.
Paladins can mainly beat any class 1v1, as long as the owner is rich. If it's an average player, the paladin will suck 1v1.
What is needed is paladin only weapons, I'll give some examples below:
Would cost 200k:
Library info for Holy Hammer:
Base damage: 22, Can be used by: paladins, Description: Found in the shops of Harabec, this hammer has a white aura projecting around it, making it give protection to the bearer., Level needed to equip it: 30, Magical: Yes, Vamparic: No, Armor: +10, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: +1, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: undead:1.25, Mana leech: 0.3.
Would cost 200k:
Library info for Holy Tunic:
Armor base: 50, Can be worn by: paladins, Description: The Holy Tunic is made only the purest gold, giving it's wearer extra protection over the different classes., Level needed to equip it: 30, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0.
I'm sure you grasp the idea. Paladins should have great armor and pretty good weapons, therefor making them not get hit as hard/often, and hit the same, but more often. Before you say these items are overpowered, I was just giving an EXAMPLE.

Also, the Auras would be a neat addition, I like the ones Julius said, they aren't super powerful but they would help out.

If you want a good fighting/rounding class, there's plenty to choose from.

This arguement has been made in world of warcraft many times when discussing Paladins in that game. Complaints about how they couldn't heal as well as priests, and couldn't do dps like a warrior. One thing you have to understand, and there is really no way around this.....PALADIN IS A HYBRID CLASS, they are supposed to be a mix of cleric/fighter, they aren't supposed to be able to do dmg as well as a fighter, they aren't supposed to heal like a cleric. If they matched the two classes they were built in similarity to, why would anyone play a cleric or fighter when you can hit as hard as a fighter while healing for ur entire hp pool in 2 heals.
AMEN

Power of Faith
+1 strength +2 dex -2 wis -1 char
lasts 2 minutes
...level 29 requirement, make it a boss drop.

if it was +1 str and +2 dex and it stacked on TOP of one of the spells we already have then it may balance them (if the user spends 30m or so on eq)
