Without knowing the ins and outs of what is actually possible within the code
Post current abilities/tomes/aas/spells that you feel are garbage and should be deleted forever.
As Ceto mentions above the Paladin's Undead DD makes 0 sense. A master of undead slaying and they get the same spells as a cleric 15 levels later. It would seem as though they should be further advanced than other classes in the undead damage department.
Something like:
Level 1: Undead DoT
Level 6: Undead DD
Level 11: Undead PBAoE
Give the undead DD procs some more pop with a 10% increase in damage and a hate component. Undead hate Paladins as much as Paladins hate the undead?
Should be comparable to DPS class dots and AoEs.
Divine Radiance:
This is a terrible ability. It is amazing lore-wise though. Sheer will that keeps you from dying to your greatest foe. How about instead of that we get 2 things fitting in line with both the lore and the intent to increase Paladin Undead DPS.
Paladins take 2/4/6/8 % less damage from undead
Paladins criticals do 2/3/4/5 x the damage
Very situational but very much in line with the AAs intent, lore and IMO the class as a destroyer of undead
Holy Constitution:
As noted above it does not affect HoTs and for the most part is useless at the tier you will be getting this AA at. As noted above I agree with the increasing self heals by a substantial number.
Spell: Taraztu's Healing Flames:
For everything I went through back in the day to get this spell it is virtually useless. Either change it to a much larger heal, a group heal, or something that makes the 5 minute cooldown worth it or make this spell more special. Keep the heal component but possibly add:
Large AC buff for 1m
Large DS for 30s
Deathsave % for 10s
Large fire based proc for 30s
Make it a much larger heal by having it repeat for 3 ticks - stacking with everything else if possible.
Make it heal for 3030 instead but unable to crit.
Make it a group heal for 1005
How do you feel about stuns?
Global stun timer makes stuns pretty meh. I feel like a huge part of the class is not useful in that way.
What are your thoughts on blinds?
It is basically the entire rotation.
Blind->Higher level blind->AoE Blind->Divine Stun-> repeat
It does really feel bad to have to mash all aggro and never get to press other buttons.
Do you have any good ability ideas you want to share?
Just a pretty simple QoL spell. Lvl 65 - preferably quested or dropped from a groupable mob. We already have the ability to cast this level of buff it would be just better if it was group wide and was one cast instead of 13 casts.
Protector of the Faith: (group buff)
Slot 1: Increase AC by 18 (65 Spell AC)
Slot 2: Increase Max Hit Points by 400
Slot 3: Increase Max Hit Points by 700
Slot 4: Increase AC by 30 (105 Spell AC)
Changes to Paladin Hate generation - these should be in current line with the terror line for SKs - but SKs are due some top end aggro help too
