Why can't paladins have cooler skills

[The Fush]

Aegis and Luna are cool n' all but I just really love the Discipline skill

Saves me from using freaktons of Arms Scrolls

[singularity]

If Paladins get Sol, Generals should get Luna instead. Just sayin'.

Heroes get Impale while GKs get Parity.

[JSND Alter Dragon Boner]

Obviously GK should still be the one who have Luna

So getting Cavalier is now even more of a jackpot

They are already the best class for almost 12 game straight and is still one of the best class here, especially considering that manly +2 STR, +2 SKL, +2 SPD, and +2 DEF Pair Up Bonus

And their class tree involves getting Great Knight with Luna and Dual Guard+, the best(or second best) Offensive Procs in the game, and the second best support skill in the game, which means having Cavalier in your base class sets is an equivalent of hitting a jackpot

Tell me how that is not good. Anything more seems overkill, to be honest

FE10 featured paladins having lower caps and often taking move restrictions. They definitely weren't the best there.

[JSND Alter Dragon Boner]

Almost impllied majority of the time

Which is maybe FE1, FE4, FE6, FE7, FE8

5/13 >_>

Good enough

*I never played 9 and 10, and 2 doesn't exist

10 is pretty great.

Paladins were godlike in FE9, literally every single one was above average (maybe not Geoffrey, loljointime)

I would have like paladin with Sol and Aegis, and Great Knight with Luna and Pavise. It always really confusesn me that it isn't the case (+Hero with Defender and General with Dual guard + sorta makes sense to me...)

In FE2 Mathilda is a goddess, and Zeke is pretty awesome too (Dat Spd Growth !), Mycen is garbage, and Clive have extemely high chance to get screwed (like the vast majority of the cast). They have pretty decent stats and move range as an ennemies (well, I also count GoldKnight as Paladin here...). Bow Knights obviously beats them in every aspects, but they are still one of the best classes and have access to the best non-Bow weapons.

Also, FE3 have Sirius...

[Narga_Rocks]

I think Paladins should have skills like "Lay on Hands" and "Smite Evil" and maybe their horses should be extra good horses?

[Raine]

That would make Cavalier the most broken tree in the game. I like what they did because it FORCES second seals into other classes instead of everyone just sticking with their horses and sticks.

[shadykid]

FE3/12 may have had Sirius, but it also had Palla, Catria, and to a lesser extent Caeda

(flying units vs paladins, go!)

[JSND Alter Dragon Boner]

No, give Paladin Anna's Aphotheosis, and Horsie Might

Defender should give an unstackable +1 Pair Up Bonus and worked for the leader

>_>

[Narga_Rocks]

Well, I wouldn't just give Paladins those skills and not mod everyone else. Fighters can get Weapon Specialization and Mages can get quicken spell and thieves can get sneak attack and monks can get the speed bonus. Good times.

[Chiki]

Fliers are the best FE9, 10, 11, 12(?) and 13.

[IceBrand]

Discipline and Aegis are pretty solid skills to have. Even Defender has it's uses.

[shadykid]

Fliers are the best FE9, 10, 11, 12(?) and 13.

definitely in 12, Palla+Catria+Caeda are pretty much the top 3 non-Avatar characters (at least I think Caeda's 3rd)

Defender isn't that good, but I think aegis is a pretty nice skill to have.

I'm more annoyed with the skills archers get. Skill +2 is useless, I forgot the other skill, but it wasn't that good either, +20 accuracy isn't exactly amazing either, unless you use it for long range dark magic or something. That leaves it with Bowfaire which only helps classes with bows, but none of the gen 1 characters who have archer can reclass into warrior and I believe only Stahl gets assassin.

Bow knight Is even worse with the useless rally skill and bowbreaker which is only sort of usefull for fliers.

I also think that the sage skills are a little boring. Tomfaire is awesome and rally magic has its uses, but both skills are a little boring in my opinion.

Aegis is really nice, especially for those with crap Res like... pretty much everyone that naturally has access to the cavalier class.

Defender however is really stupid.

It's only active when paired up (okay, which is usually the case for my units) and only gives +1 on every stat.

Give them All Stats +2 instead and you get double the effect, all the time.

[shorty]

Ive always passionately avoided Padilans, probably cos there so many always but in Awakening i make nearly all units go through it for Aegis, and in my opinion its and best unit for Chrom

[Drgnquester]

Paladins are cool, especially in Awakening. Great all around stats, high movement, and AEGIS.

This guy has the right idea. Also they usually gain weapon experience quickly. Meaning easy and early access to silver and killer weapons.

[darkkfan]

meh... paladins are boring

When you compare them to other games, there really aren't that many Paladins in awakening, especially since none of the children characters start as Cavaliers and most games have a lot more cavs in addition to the Red and Green Cavs and the Jagen (and Fred isn't even a Paladin).
