The Forgotten Paladin

The title to this blog sounds like a book I would like to read, or perhaps one I haven't written yet, but I digress.

On some random Warcraft server I have a level 70 paladin that I had all but forgotten. In about 2 weeks the expansion pack for Warcraft will be coming out and in anticipation of that the creators of the game totally redid the majority of the talent trees. If you don't play Warcraft that probably read like a bunch of nonsense but bear with me.

What does this mean for the Forgotten Paladin you may ask? Historically paladin's were healers, more recently their ability to keep enemies away from your party members has been worked into the game. The most recent development? Paladins. Melt. Face. The damage I can do in my new specialazation is nothing short of fantastic. Finally working as intended I say!


Unfortunately there has been a huge backlash against the Paladin class from people who play the other classes available in game, so the Paladin is in for a tune down when the expac is released. Damage is going to be decreased etcetera etcetera. Luckily the expac isn't going to be out until the 14th of this month so I have been spending my time in Warcraft enjoying the temporary feeling of being a badass.
