The Paladin is a support class built around standing your ground with high durability and supporting your party with massive burst damage. The ideal Paladin playstyle involves moving slower than most classes, but compensating for that with stun bubbles, heals, and ranged attacks from its signature hammer and lightning abilities.
In this Eldegarde guide, you will learn the basics of the Paladin playstyle in Eldegarde, the basics of the class skills, and combat mechanics.
Complete Paladin Class Guide
Paladin Role and Playstyle
Paladins are frontline juggernauts. When playing solo, you can choose to pressure enemies with ranged attacks or aggressively close the gap to finish them off with heavy melee damage.
However, in team play, the Paladin class becomes a support class.
The bubbles, heals, and stuns you can generate using the class make it one of the best classes to have in a party.
Paladin Skill Overview
Paladin is a very versatile class. There are three main skill slots you can equip with any skill that suits your playstyle.
For the Class Skill 1, you can choose between a throwing hammer that deals two massive amounts of damage or a spinning hammer that hits multiple times.
The Class Skill 2, you can pick either Searing Verdict, which is a close-range lightning strike with stunning potential, or Divine Spear, which deals long-range damage.
For Support, the Paladin class has Bless of Vitality for boosting max HP or healing received and Cleansing Nova, which removes debuffs from nearby party members.
Seals
Seals are a core part of the unique combat abilities of the Paladin class in Eldegarde. Each seal provides a unique buff, ability, or supplementing effect. Choose based on your playstyle.
Justice
Justice is a combat mechanic that builds when you get hit or block. The more justice you have, the more damage you deal.
TIP: You trigger a special attack when the Justice bar is full.
Armor
The Paladin class has two armor types: Black Armor and White Armor.
Black Armor is best for solo play and lets you deal significantly boosted damage. The White Armor, on the other hand, is for utility players who want optimized contributions to their party.
