Hi guys. not sure if this has ever been addressed before but ima throw my opinion in. i say pally Blinds should be unresistable to balance it out with SK aggro. or just change the resist adjustment. blinds are so resisted that a pally actually has a hard time getting aggro and makes it rather stupid to make a pally. making it unresistable would definetly balance out the SK issue and allow the Pally to have some glory. once again this is jsut my personal view.
 
Can you please give sks aoe terror, and the powers of a tier 8 cleric.

Single target blind has a -200 adjust, this is the same as my lifetaps, they have landed fairly well over the course of my raiding career outside the few select instances where a mob was really silly and had high magic resist.

Paladin blind has a -200 resist adjust.

While paladins have aggro problems these days, I'm pretty sure it's not from resists.
 
Paladins don't suffer from bad aggro spells they suffer from bad players being attracted to the class.
 
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. 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 point. 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. 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.

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. making all of them unresistable would be a bit OP.


Once again. this is my opinion.

You can cast your ae blind spell to over write blinding light, then cast blinding light again for more agro. Also divine stun ftw. I agree that pallies are not the best at agro, but arent as terrible as you make them seem.

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.

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.

and i am again going to remind u that AoE undead is useful in about as few zones as they come. AoE stuns do not work in raids. most of the time. and as far as blinds go as i said. Wave of light being unresistable allows a pally to have atleast some way of getting aggro on MR resistant mobs. i dont doubt your knowledge otcho and your probly right. but either way my opinion is that Wave of Light being unresistable is something that is not to much to ask for and makes a Pally good at what he does. and to re address the Stun situation even when tanking contructs u can not stun them making stuns useless, but just like with undead this is not a very common situation.

once again (as i will continue to say as i do not wish to force anything on to anyone) my opinion is that Wave of Light being unresistable is something a Pally should have as it is the way it should be.
