Where Can I Find a Guide For Paladin?

Pharcyde's guide covers enchantress in general and does discuss paladin: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?14916-Enchantress-Class-Head-Quarters
I guess the best straight up pally guide would still be violentsaint's but that is probably somewhat out of date by now.

Depends on the level, just for some basic information go minimum strength (to equip gear) and dump the rest in int to boost skill damage, and focus on gear that delivers M/S mainly, but don't wear a level 19 armor as a level 30 just because it delivers M/S (I see this too much...) Until you state your level, I can't really help you much with a build, and what gear to wear.

On another note: READ;)

im lvl 7 LOL

I suggest that you go pure int until level 30-50. Paladins are incredibly painful to level up, also harsh on the pockets at low levels.

Anyways There are 3 types of paladins -

1.) Dual equip paladin, most common paladin and best PvP pally/damage support class. Split your stats half and half then use lower gears to equip higher gear.
2.) Strength favored Paladin, puts enough into strength to equip gears of that current level and the rest into int.
3.) Tank Pally, pretty uncommon, 100% or almost 100% strength, a class fit for tanking. They can hold aggro well with all of their aoe spells, but can't beckon or taunt.

Pharcyde I gotta diagree with your tank pally assertions. A pally can never hold aggro in a group with Int mages (using the same skills but doing more damage with them) or over birds. A full Str pally is just about one of the worst imaginable builds possible for this game. If anyone goes that route, make sure to hide your stats to avoid being booted lol.

lol I agree its one of the worst builds ever, but I still see people do it... I gave pure str pally a whirl before just to see how it fared, I was pretty much invincible when BOV and mana shield were up. Eh... I should rephrase the aggro part, its soso not pretty well. I still held aggro if I tried hard enough, but it requires focus.

I am still lvl 50 so I don't really know how to allocate the stats currently.

Not to take this off topic, but I'm still trying to figure out why there are so many pure strength mages. They seem to outnumber the population of pure int and hybrids combined. You don't get that much more durability (hence why I think pally is a good compromise and bears are much better tanks), but you're firepower is seriously gimped. I once played as pure int with 4 strength mages. I think I probably got more kills with spells alone than the 4 of them combined.




@Vallist:

I think that you're going to have to experiment and play a lot buy yourself. No guide can be so specific to cover that. Everyone has their own play style - in fact you may respec because of it. The pally is a very flexible build capable of dual wielding and is pretty forgiving when you make mistakes, especially compared to the low hp pure int.

Put enough in both strength and int so that you can use both top-end weapon types, then try out what works better for you.

Do half an half... use osiris and thoth to boost.. isis works also, depending on what you can get...


My boosters:

HELM
STR: mynas helmet of osiris -- needs level 45, 138 str, adds 8 str
INT: mynas helmet of thoth -- needs level 45, 138 str, adds 8 int

WEAP:
STR: zuraz plasma sword -- needs level 43, 136(I think) str, adds 9 str
INT: Djinn spear of thoth -- needs level 41, 126(I think) str, adds 8 int

ARMOR:
STR: Mynas plate of osiris -- needs level 43, 138 str, adds 8 str
INT: Mynas plate of thoth -- needs level 43, 138 str, adds 8 int/kfahra cloth of isis needs level 40, 124 int, adds 8 int (have both, only need one.. deciding which to keep)

Shield:
STR: imhotep eye of osiris, needs level 45, 138 int, adds 8 str
INT: imhotep eye of thoth, needs level 45, 138 int, adds 8 int


Will work perfectly for level 55...

Oh, and remember, just b/c those my preferred boosters doesn't mean they're the only ones... I farmed all of them except the zuraz, but kept a tab in the CS on their prices... you'd spend 20k for the zuraz, and 200-300k for the armors. I suggest just going for the +7 normal pinks if you're low on time or money, easy enough to get.
