Paladin or Dark Knight?

  Dark Knight for my Fiona. Though, that might change once I'm higher level and know the skills.

  Paladin because that's what my human is on Mabi.

  It seems like everyone thinks the Dark Knight is ugly. I think it's really cool personally. It reminds me of Venom and Carnage from Spider Man.

  
  
  Exactly what my gf said! XD
  
  I'd go DK for Lann, and maybe Paladin for Evie, as I do like how it looks...

  I just read the descriptions... You'd have to be one massive masochist to want to be a Paladin. Forget that... Dark Knight all the way.
  
  

  Quote from Dark Knight:

  Players who transform into a Dark Knight will be in a high damage dealing position within the party. Once transformed into a Dark Knight, the player will gain large bonuses to combat attributes, allowing them to be of even more use when dealing with difficult encounters. Additionally, the player assuming the role of a Dark Knight will be able to steal the life force of an enemy for themselves.

  
  
  Nice...
  nice...
  nice.
  
  

  Quote from Paladin:

  A Paladin's role is to support of the party and play as the tank. Once transformed into a Paladin, the user will gain a huge defense boost to help support the user in battle. Also Paladins have a unique ability in which when other party members are about to die, the user is able to self destruct and heal everybody else in the party. Roles can vary depending on each class(will edit with more info later)

  
  
  k...
  nice...
  wait, wtf?! uncool.

  I lol'd at description.
  
  I would love doing extra damage, but I also love how Evie looks in paladin.
  
  Dammit, I hate hard decisions..

  Killing yourself to revive 11 people (in a 12 person raid) sounds mighty useful. Any of those now resurrected people can just go ress you easily.
  Still going pally.

  Or could use a Party Feather :C..
  
  I just hope that, the Paladin will still get useful Abilities.. Also, I know that the extra attack that deals lots of damage, costs a chunk out of your HP bar Lol.
  
  Edit: And for Fiona, the choice is simple though xD Its Paladin

  Paladins sound really great for party play. But I guess what you choose is preference, much like what class and what weapon type you're choosing.
  
  But Paladin's special skill sounds really situational, and is akin to just using a Party Phoenix Feather.

  Though I am very interested in this explosion effect, wiping mobs with a Big Bang would be so fun....
  
  ME: OH HAI GUYZ YOU KILL MY FWIENDS1!?!
  Mobs: HEEEYYAAAAAAAA
  ME:..... *BOOM*
  
  Bear: RAWRRRRRrrrr.... *fallsover*

  Doesn't it say heal everyone, not resurrect?
  
  I don't think healing the party at the cost of your life is such a great skill. But if you're going to die anyway, then you might as well use it as a last ditched effort.

  Is it me or are the stats between the 2 transformations really unbalanced?
• TA wrote on 2010-10-24 21:15
  I dunno, I really don't see any reason anyone would want to go Paladin over Dark Knight. The stats and benefits are just way better for Dark Knight and it isn't a masochist.
• Lukeal wrote on 2010-10-30 03:33
  Well Dark knights are an offensive class really. Paladins have always been defensive mainly. In mabinogi its clearly seen that dark knights were intended for all out offense and so in vindictus. But also i heard that dark knights have their own self destruct just like pallies. Except this 1 blows u up and pretty much oblivirates anything close to you. Massive damage. So its for a last ditch effort in taking down the boss. *If im going down ur going down with me* XD

  Besides the blatant fact that Dark Knights are freaking ugly

  This just in: Dark Knights are way cooler.

  Though I'm still undecided what to do with my Lann. Infinite stamina = spinnyspinny all day for either class... and I'm not too sure the DK has the damage advantage; If the hurricane has a chance to proc paladin missiles, there might be a whole lot of hurt flying around even if the direct damage is less.
  
  I might just go paladin because I'd be the only dual spear paladin Lann in the game. :D
