dondon151 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Paladins are pretty amazing, but they're still outclassed by DKs, PKs, and valkyries. Unless said paladin uses staves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inui Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Paladin = best class overall by a big amount imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narga_Rocks Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Paladins are pretty amazing, but they're still outclassed by DKs, PKs, and valkyries. Unless said paladin uses staves. Isn't that just Ethlin and Nanna and the fe5 female pallies? And in fe5 they had to trade lances for staves. (In fe4 they end up with C Lances instead of B) Actually, aside from stats Mist is basically an fe5 paladin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messy mike Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Over the course of the whole series, Paladins are probably the single best non-unique class. Canto in 3/4/5/9, weapon triangle mastery most of the time, high move and generally at least 2 per game with solid stats? Yes please. But they're not underrated by any means, everybody pretty much knows how good they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkhead Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 He doesn't like pre-promotes. FE9 Paladins are broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I prefer foot units, but paladins are good and I usually end up promoting at least one cav. However, I do prefer Heroes, Sages and Snipers (three favourite classes by far) but I definitely won't say any of 'em (well, maybe Sages) are as good as the common Paladin.

Ike-Mike Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 If you shove Great/Duke/Forrest Knights into the same group as Paladins then yes, they do pwn in every FE except RD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilae Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Paladins are very solid units in general with many useful units having the class. FE6 / FE7 (haven't played FE9) had the best Paladins IMO, and partly because there are so many of them =) The class with the best combat parameters in general is Hero, as there are quite a few mediocre Paladins.

Anacybele Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 (edited) Why are people saying Paladins are no good in RD? Sure, Geoffrey, Astrid, and Fiona suck/are mediocre, but Oscar, Titania, and Kieran are pretty damn good. I can own just about anything with those three every time I play through the game. Makalov is okay, just a bit too underleveled. Renning comes in way too late to make a real judgement, but he was pretty good when I used him. I've had good Paladins in every FE game I've played, to be honest. Edited March 22, 2010 by Eternal Bond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makalov is okay, just a bit too underleveled. Renning comes in way too late to make a real judgement, but he was pretty good when I used him. Their speed caps are quite horrible, which means they run into trouble doubling after a few maps. Oscar has a 24 SPD cap, and enemies don't take too long to get to 21 AS, so he's forced to use a Crown. Titania is closer to promotion, so she only gets hit by her speed cap later in the game. Kieran also has AS problems outside 2-3. Anyway, Paladins are usually very good, specially in FE4 and FE9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 For the ones I've played... FE4: Epic. FE6: Pretty good. FE7: Epic. FE8: Epic, but then again your best 2 characters are Pallies (or at least 1 is, the other can become a Pally) FE10: Horrid caps, but still pretty good. FE11: Pretty good.

Once again, I must tell you personal experience means nothing. <_< Anyways, they aren't bad, and Geoffrey doesn't suck at all, he, along with Kieran are the best Paladins in part and have great durability, it's just that the only advantage they bear is more Mov, but their Spd caps are almost the same as Marshall ones.

Ansem Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) FE1: Ok FE3: Awesome FE4: Aless FTW FE6: Awesome FE7: Meh FE8: Ok FE11: Awesome thats pretty much becuase of reclass <_< Edited March 24, 2010 by Kai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I don't see how Kent, Sain & Marcus are "Meh", Marcus isn't as fundamental as his FE6 version, yet he is needed for ealier chapters where you have enemies sorrounding you, he is good until midgame wherereas FE6!Marcus & Zealot aren't, the one who is actually awesome is Percival unless we count Alan & Lance which are very similiar to Kent & Sain. Seth is not meh in the least, neither is Franz, they're doing even better since they are in such an easy FE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sain and Kent are like the 3rd best Red & Green cavaliers in the series. That's "meh?" I do feel that Lowen's overrated though.

Inui Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 lol @ Kai saying in FE 7 Paladins are "meh" when it's still the best class by far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Your right for FE8 but in FE7 Kent and Sain dont compare to any of the others Kent is pretty balanced, he is stronger than Lance and can double for 1-2 AS gain/s. Sain is a beast one gets reliable Spd, his Atk very good. I do feel that Lowen's overrated though. What? When? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just call me AL Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) What? When? I know PEMN, but he never really appealed to me like Sain and Kent did. Part of the reason why was a lower Str growth than those two. Edited March 24, 2010 by Terrence Sweetwater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Lowen's Strength growth is lower if i remember correctly. Kent and Sain both have better strength growths. I heart Paladins. Even in FE10 although they did get nerfed noticeably. (so did Laguz and other stuff.) While Peg Knights are my favorite mounted units, Pallies get the job done and are often your front runners. Luckily, they get a mastery in FE10 thats most useful. FE6: Lance. PERCIVAL!!! *SQUEE* FE7: Sain and Kent rock the socks. Teaming them up is epic. FE8: KYLE! Seth does well too. FE9: Everybody. (except Geoffery. hes a good unit and everything, i just dont like him much.) FE10: Well out of all the paladins, Titania gets the win.
