I am a bit unsure on what kind of class I should make out of these three.. It has been bugging me for a while. So I am going to rely on the suggestions of you fellow maplers, if you can/want could you leave reasons towards your answer? Thank you.

Here's the thing it looks like u got bossing calss if u do I'd go with sairs, if not then out of 3option I'd go with heros they boss well and good dmg also fun or if u want better 1v1 dmp then pallys would be right choice and if u want to ks pple nls would be the perfect job

If you have to ask, make a NL, if you already know, good for you.

pally ftw, especially after the balance patch a lot of noobs (sins and hermits) will say NL, but you can't really solo boss with a NL (like big foot), so it can get a little bit tough to lv up after a while (newt skele parties can get repetitive). Although NLs have a lot of mobility, they don't have hardly any hp, this gets really annoying. so... right now hero is probably stronger than pallys, but after the balance patch it's definitely going to be questionable. I think pallys will be stronger, so if you make a pally now, when the balance patch comes around you'll be quite strong.

Uhmm.. I actually don't know... A Night Lord is very different from a warrior XD I personally don't like warriors because they walk so slow (except the dawn warrior) -.- But if you aren't as impatient as I am a warrior could be really cool and strong. So first figure out if you like long range attacks and speed more or if you like close range attacks and high damage more. If you want to make a warrior don't listen to all the people who say that a hero is so much "cooler" and "stronger" because they simply aren't... In 2nd job there isn't much difference between the 2 and in 3rd job a white knight hits (regularly) higher than a crusader. I don't know much about the difference in 4th job. But a paladin is pretty rare which makes scrolls and weapons cheaper (if you choose the axe) which makes it cheaper to make godly weapons =)

Well, it comes down to preference, really. Do you want to spam the same skill (basically) from 1st job to level 200, with the occasional opt out for a mob, but who is a quick attacker and a fast mover? Then pick a NL. Do you want a character who is a little more diverse but built for small mobs in fourth job (2-3) the pick a Hero. Do you want destructive 1v1 damage and a very good large mob skill? Then pick a Paladin. Personally, I vote for Hero or Paladin, as there are just too many NL's on the market, and they are far too overrated.

i like NL because it is ranged and has okay damage.

If you pick NL, definitely don't do it for damage alone (since it's not what we're totally made for on solo, even though SE+Apples makes us leap over most classes in comparison). Compared to the Warriors, our avoid and mobility are better by far, and we come with many meso-saving and meso-gaining skills, as well as having some common perks that a range class carries. If those don't appeal to you and terms like "do this many DPS on mobs of 2-3" or "Good melee single-target DPS and good large mob DPS" appeal more to you, go Warrior lol. xD I personally think damage output is a very nice factor when it comes to classes, but it's by far the most overrated. Honestly, if all NLs had to offer was damage, I would've quit it long ago (it's actually why I quit a 128 Hero to get my Hermit to NL. It had nice damage output, but other than that, it didn't provide much else...). xD

i would choose hero or pally if you want raw damage. and nl if you want that mobility.

Be a paladin. Ladies love a man in uniform. So join our celibate order. To get chicks.

PALADIN Zaemedelphos is right. I would lay down my pixel body for a Paladin f3 I have already (married to the sexiest pally in ms)

Paladin or NL. NLs for fun training, speed, bossing although they aren't considered effective attackers Pallys for nice training/bossing, will be improved further in the balance patches.
