− | <blockquote><p>''The Paladin is a righteous defensive fighter with divine powers.''</p> |
||
− | <p>''Paladins are virtuous defenders of the weak and vengeful punishers of the wicked. Paladins are able to cast divine spells to bolster themselves and their allies, heal and even raise fallen comrades from the dead. They are also granted Gifts of Virtue, which enable them to call the very power of the gods to their aid. Paladins can wear heavy armor and can wield most weapons. Born protectors, paladins use heavy armors, shields and two-handed weapons as they battle the forces of evil and become even more powerful when fighting undead foes.''</p></blockquote> |

⚫ | These are powerful abilities that a paladin can only perform a limited number of times. Paladins gain virtue points as they grow in strength and experience or from heroic acts (such as using rescues when below 20% health). These Virtue Points regenerate a lot faster than the game and other information leads the player to believe, however using Gifts of Virtue consumes virtue points. Examples of Paladin gift spells are Lay on Hands, Paragon, Zeal, Dictum of Valus, Shield of Gloriann, Shining Beacon, Final Stand, and Sun Burst. |

Paladin heals are not as powerful or power efficient as those of traditional healers. Paladin heals will also be more subject to interruption if the paladin is also tanking. |

Auras are buffs that add beneficial effects to the Paladin and his group. Only one Aura can be active at a time. The Paladin must choose between three auras, Divine Power, Aura of Shielding and Aura of Replenishment. |

− | + | '''Rescues''' |
|
In Vanguard Saga of Heroes, players can choose offensive and defensive targets. The defensive target can receive heals or be rescued if under attack and in range. The rescue forces the enemy to focus their attacks upon the Paladin for a short period of time allowing the Paladin time to regain aggro. If a Paladin rescues the same defensive target, not only does the Paladin take the damage, but also he may dish out significant damage back to the NPC from the rescue. The Paladin has the best rescues of any of the protective fighter classes. |

|
It is intended that all protective fighter classes mitigate damage equally. Each protective fighter class specializes in tanking certain types of creatures with Paladins being able to tank best against the undead, due to their Holy nature. Paladins are the most defensive of the protective fighter classes. |
