Paladins are in a "Good" spot...i don't think things are overly broken or not as good, the synergies between some talents are really cool, and the melee talents are clearly more powerful. i think they are going to be a great class in DF. i think my question is...will avenging crusader replace avenging wrath? because if its does, that will make for some SUPER cool interaction between a few of the talents.
