Hi, good .  Some classes in World of Warcraft are known as hybrid classes. They are the classes that combine some primary features found in others. One such class is the Paladin. In this WoW Paladin Guide, you will discover the abilities of this diverse character.

Just like other hybrids, the Paladin possesses the traits of multiple classes, but is not as proficient as those who are known primarily for one skill. With practice and mastery of the Paladin, however, a player will be efficient enough to utilize all of the skills effectively. This makes for a valuable character class both solo and in groups.

Paladins have auras and blessings to assist fellow party members. Auras are buffs that the Paladin provides for other party or raid members in his or her vicinity, boosting their abilities. A Paladin also possesses blessings, which are single target buffs applicable to friends, greatly increasing their fighting abilities. Most blessings last for ten minutes and are exclusive to Paladins.

Though the Paladin is known for the buffs provided to party and raid members, they can endure heavy damage due to the ability to wear plate armor. Paladins are known as a defensive class due to their healing capabilities, buffing abilities, and ability to withstand damage. This is not to say that they have no offensive skills. They may utilize two-handed weapons, stun enemies, and have the power to eradicate Undead and Demons. It is, however, the Paladin’s talent for outlasting the enemy that is the class’s true strength.

As you have probably surmised from reading only this far in this WoW Paladin Guide, Paladins are a hybrid class due to spellcasting and unique fighting skills. Dexterity with two-handed weapons enhance the melee abilities of the class, while the secondary spellscasting and healing powers provide defense and battle enhancements for other party and raid members. Thus, the hybrid denomination.

On offense, the Undead are the Paladin’s primary targets due to their skill in fighting this class.

There are a few drawbacks that do come with the Paladins previously mentioned strengths. Due to their skills and demands on both offense and defense, they require a large amount of mana. Much of the need for wearing the heaviest armor is derived from the fact that they must stay close to the combatants, as they do not have range abilities. Additionally, they have little to no aptitude for drawing attacks.

Possible races the Paladin may assume are:

• Blood Elf
• Draenei
• Dwarf
• Human

Equipment available to the Paladin includes:

• Cloth
• Leather
• Mail
• Shield
• Plate (with training)

Weapons a Paladin may wield are:

• Axes (one and two-handed)
• Maces (one and two-handed)
• Polearms (with training)
• Swords (one and two-handed)

If you choose the Blood Elf race for your class, you will begin with Sword specializations.

This WoW Paladin Guide is designed to display the versatility of these hybrid warriors. Upon mastering their skills, you will be both a valuable ally and a formidable foe.
