The Paladin<br />

The paladin is a virtuous defender of the weak and a tireless enemy of the undead.<br />

Mixing elements of the warrior and the priest, the paladin is a tough melee fighter<br />

with great health, excellent protection, and very strong buffs. It also has a useful<br />

mix of healing and defensive spells. The tradition of holy knights is unique to the<br />

Alliance. In many ways, the paladin is the counterpart to the Horde's shaman, but<br />

geared towards physical battle more than spellcasting prowess.<br />

Class Abilities<br />

The paladin, like the warrior, can learn to wear all types of armor, and has among<br />

the widest selection of weapon skills. It has a good ability to thrive in melee<br />

combat, made even better with its unique buffs: auras and seals.<br />

Auras are buffs that a paladin casts on itself that also have effect on all nearby party<br />

members. A paladin can only have one aura in effect at a time, and two paladins<br />

with the same aura cannot stack that aura's effects. However, multiple paladins can<br />

each use different auras to overlap different buffs on allies. Some auras can heal the<br />

paladin and his allies, boost armor, and damage attackers.<br />

A seal is another kind of buff available to the paladin. Seals are short-term spell<br />

effects with specific benefits. Some seals increase damage dealt, absorb physical<br />

damage, or boost damage against undead. Only one seal at a time can be in effect<br />

on a player per paladin.<br />

The remainder of the paladin's spells include healing, a resurrection spell, defensive<br />

spells, and spells specifically designed to attack undead.
