In the first Balance Patch, they made it so Paladins reign supreme over the warriors on all 1v1 targets (neutral and elemental weak) and on all 4-6 targets. This defeats the purpose that they are elemental warriors, if they are gonna be stronger on all fields. Now with the recent Revamp, they are getting a much bigger upgrade then the other two warriors. Even with the nerfing of the Elemental Charges, the increase in damage of Blast outweighs it. Then they go adding a lot of "defensive skills" to where Paladins are tanks and receive little damage, sometimes receiving zero damage. So now Paladins have advantages on pretty much all bosses except maybe Zakum and CWKPQ. They even have a strong 6 monster mob move (ACB) and HH to train with. They surpass other warriors on elemental weaks by far. They are "tanks" receiving very little damage. What do the other warriors get? Heroes get powered up 3rd Job moves that aren't gonna be used in 4th job. They get powered up rage and enrage that are rendered useless by apples and other atk buffs. They get a new 4th job move that has less % than the original brandish (lolwut, i know it benefits more from SE and crit though because of the 3 hits). After all this, they still lose to Paladins on all fields except the mentioned above, Zakum and CWKPQ. DrKs from what I understand got pwned by the patch (Berzerk nefing). If I'm wrong on this please tell me because I'm not too sure on how it works now. Even without the nerfings, Paladins totally outclass DrKs besides HB. Paladins have become really overpowered over their warrior friends. And no I don't own a Hero or Drk. Just sayin.

Well there has to be a dominant sub class in each class. Its not suprising that the made the class that was considered weakest the dominant sub class of warriors.

They get restorative nation which heals 80% of their hp instantly, and blazing armor which makes them invulnerable to 5 attacks or for 20 seconds. OT: It's about time Paladins rose up. Heroes always had a higher overall dps, now nexon wants to switch it up I suppose,
