Quote:1) The tankazon is the most versatile of all warriors. I challenge anyone to prove otherwise.
the paladin.
* requires low dex for max block so can have more varried stat allocation.
* can have a stunning skill, a speed improvement skill, an anti-undead skill and still have skillpoints over.
* holy freeze, holy fire, holy shock, sanctuary, conviction, fanaticism, blessed aim, ok, all auras but prayer, cost zero mana. except being good for only 20 or less points, they also help your party.
* has defence boosting skills, now with +15% def per level, more than barbarians.
a tankazon can swing a weapon and not get hit much, my oh my how versatile. it might be only me, but that's the most boring thing i can think of. the next monster i'll...swing at it. the one afterwards...i'll swing at it. with a paladin you got so many choices.
if you count in how long you stand around in any combation of stun, dodge or block recovery and how long you take to kill a monster, then you'd find that it's not really that good.
heh, i do can see the lure of playing a tankazon. if only pallies had boobs and didn't look stupid in almost any outfit. pallies do look incredibly cool swinging a 2-handed sword, but i get bored after trying that for 5 mins :(
