As far as i know Pallys never heal like a T8 clr. Pally stun hardly ever works on raid mobs. so really we have no aggro execept our 3 blinds that get resisted a good amount.
You maybe should go look at the mana efficiency and healing power of paladin spells. Divine stun has -100 MR check. Last time I checked magic resist is the most easily debuffed resists.
. unlike SK's Terrors (looks at otcho) all they ahve to do is cast that about 3 times and go afk , but thats beside the poin.
Hey apparently you never played a shadowknight or have no prior knowledge of what it was to be one a few months ago after devs finally changed our aggro to not be ridiculous. Because if you had you would know that shadowknights used to have to chain cast 3-4 terrors on every target and having anymore than three meant your aggro was shit.
Pallys have to fight for aggro and get resisted more than a SK. if were gonna get the lesser aggro at least make it easier for us to get aggro.
Someone(thade) has already mentioned that maybe paladins have aggro trouble, however its not due to resists its due to the ridiculous damage some classes put out and their low aggro output, to be honest I am pretty sure this problem is exclusive to the super high end raid game.
adn as far as the AoE aggro we get 1 spell that takes 25 seconds to recast so if it gets resisted we have no AoE aggro in reality. as far as tanking goes 3 spells 1 with a 25 sec CD and 1 thats lvl 9 and gets resisted alot leaving Blinding light as a main aggro which can only get aggro once until its over written or worn off.
You have:
Aoe Blind(-75 adjust, 25s)
Aoe Stun(0 adjust, 32 seconds)
One MASSIVE aoe undead nuke
One other aoe undead nuke
Ikisith gave you two additional spells ontop of this. If you are using your level 9 blind I have no idea what to tell you.
all im saying is just a little help is nice. make only wave of light unresistable as it is the Pallys job to AoE tank. This is in all ways u look fair.
All I am saying is paladins are the best tanks for the majority of the game and remain to be the superior 6 man content tank. I don't feel this is remotely fair and I am coming from the opinion of someone who has played both classes for a very extensive amount of time throughout all tiers.
I am going to just leave it at the fact that maybe you have poorly optimized gear. Maybe you don't have the magic resistance tome. Maybe you are just bad.
