So you wanna be a Paladin

[@Robert_2011]

Best weapon to use for Paladin? 2 hand mace or 1 hand with shield?

[@KyoWantsCute]

I prefer 2h. Especially because there's lots of ways to increase attack speed to get close to 1h attack speed anyway. The main advantage 1h has is that the shield can be scrolled and then star forced. Secondaries can't, but can be potentialed the same. I personally use 2h, it's cheaper, does more damage (until the shield is put into consideration,) and it looks cooler usually.

[@PartyQuest]

I remember that paladin was so damn cool at 3rd job advancement! Back in 2006 back before big bang. They retained the cool final attack animation with 3 different elements. And ice was freezing back then, but doing low dmg compared to lightning or fire.

[@KyoWantsCute]

The way all of your attacks showed the elements you were using. Loved it! The little twirl of the final attack~ Marvelous. Fire did damage over time and decent damage Ice froze enemies so you could save potions Lightning stunned enemies so you could basically train for free Holy, when it came out, destroyed the best monsters to train on, skelegons. Or undead in general, but also did the most damage and was the prettiest imo.

[@kevinwang3312]

Blast uses the last element doesn’t it? So couldn’t have have mobbed once with fire charge and then used blast the rest of the time? More lines/damage, or is it generally bad for grinding? Less monsters hit and less hitbox maybe?

[@KyoWantsCute]

Yeah, sadly due to blast being a single target skill, it wouldn't help too much unless you're struggling to kill an elite. Yeah blast uses the last element that was used.

[@sergiot2014]

Yea late comment, but just wondering your reasoning for not putting a hyper point in heavens hammer cooldown cutter.

[@KyoWantsCute]

I have it in now, especially since they made it a faster attack. Back then I never really used it unless I was falling and wanted to hit things as I was going down. But now I have it added.

[@jgames757]

Hey Kyo, I am stuck between Pally and Demon Slayer. My goal is to become a carry and solo bosses as fast as I can. In your opinion, what would be best? Thank you!

[@KyoWantsCute]

Both classes can do that. Paladin is better utility wise because you can eventually share your god mode skill with a party member. Also you don't die so you can attack more often. Demon slayer you can attack enemies through their damage reflect and weapon cancel. But play either class long enough and you'll be able to carry people.

@@jgames757 Thank you!

[@NaJk93]

Why is Sword better than Mace? You get more bonus with 1-hand mace than Sword.

[@KyoWantsCute]

Yup! Less resale value, but more bonuses.

[@-robin7854]

So this is off topic but, what is the best way to farm in reboot? I want to be a paladin and put my all into one but idk how to make money to fund 😞 please help

[@KyoWantsCute]

I don't play in reboot, but if I were to farm for meso. I'd make a kanna, and get meso drop rate gear. Legendary accessories can get meso drop rate on their potentials I believe. Kanna is for the extra monsters spawning more frequently as well. Assuming you can transfer mesos in storage.

[@-robin7854]

KyoWantsCute Thanks!! Also, what is the quickest way to get to level 200?

[@shavitush]

i recently stated pally in eu reboot, loving it so far! you forgot to mention guardian (4th job) gives both you and the party member you revive full invulnerability for a whopping 10 sec! just like sacrosanctity

[@KyoWantsCute]

Oops! Haha. One day I'll redo this series. I'll mention it then.

[@videotms]

where can I find this? which version?

[@KyoWantsCute]

@@videotms All maples I believe. Paladin's 4th job skill "Guardian."

[@billanderson9769]

love watching this in5 fps

[@KyoWantsCute]

You'll be disappointed in the more recent videos then. Glad you enjoyed though! Thanks for watching!

[@dackone2]

i swear this class feels more like a magic knight not a paladin like i feel like mihile fits paladin better in that name term maybe its just me but honestly thats what i think

[@KyoWantsCute]

Yeah since the beginning White Knight would use elements to boost their attacks. Eventually the elements themselves became the attacks. Now Paladin is a paladin in name due to the massive defense, and passive defensive abilities. Mihile is the more active defensive class, but he also summons a bunch of floating swords to attack so idk. I think it's better to be named after your actual name than what class type you are anyway, so Mihile might be ok with it.

[@sebastianmartinez-jo1xb]

What channel are you in bro , bera or reboot? Just curious

[@KyoWantsCute]

Bera's my main server

[@davidrios6099]

HOW DO I PICK A PALADIN IN MY CLASS?

[@KyoWantsCute]

Not sure what you mean, but I'll explain it in the ways I know of. Become an Explorer Warrior / Swordsman, then at lvl 30 job advance into a Page. You're then on the road to become a Paladin. Or if you already have a lvl 100+ Dark Knight, or Hero you can job change into a Paladin for mesos or a job change coin by talking to the 4th job npc.

[@GarlicGrinder9]

Are they still tanky af?

[@KyoWantsCute]

Absolutely!

[@GarlicGrinder9]

I thought so! I wasn't sure, what with Nexon messing around with the explorer classes.

[@KyoWantsCute]

I hope they never change that haha. They do however have the ability to share some of their def by sacrificing their own. They have lots to spare though, and gain damage when they use that skill anyway. Mihile, Paladin, and Demon Avenger are the tanks of the game. Mihile is the active tank, using an active skill to block damage Paladin is the passive tank, using passive abilities to lower or block damage Demon Avenger is a pure HP class so he can tank many hits

[@GarlicGrinder9]

Ok, thanks! I've been trying to choose between those 3 and a couple others as a second main, but wasn't sure what I'd like more! Now I'm choosing pally because I tend to like passive buffs more! :D

[@KyoWantsCute]

Ah! Best of luck to you! They're one of my favorite warriors. Actually they might be my favorite. Idk, sometimes I like Blaster more, sometimes I like Paladin more, guess it depends on my mood lol

[@Meapykinz]

btw for those who find this video, make sure u farm mobs with a weak attribute...I one shot mobs that way.

[@KyoWantsCute]

Yeeeees! I'm gonna make this way more of a point in the remake of this video. I should have in the bishop video too.

[@Veryfreshveryflourish24]

Yes i want to atleast try as i need a good warrior however i am piss poor unfunded player in gms of all places so funding paladin will be impossible...

[@KyoWantsCute]

I can certainly help with equipment, the only thing you'd have to do is worry about scrolling or potentials. I'm always helping people out with CRA gear (not always the weapon)

[@Veryfreshveryflourish24]

KyoWantsCute I am actually very determined in doing a paladin now as people are very supportive to me about this choice so i am very thankful for all this and i am raising mesos throught auction house to fund a good fafnir weapon and i currently have 188million mesos(^-^) but would you recommend 1h hammer or 2h sword?

[@KyoWantsCute]

Awesome! Glad to hear it! If you need a clean one, and you play in bera, let me know if you need for free. I would say go 1h sword due to the attack speed, and being able to use shields. The reason you use shields over secondary is because you can scroll shields. Can't scroll secondaries =( If we could scroll secondaries, I think 2h would be the way to go since secondary can count as a shield and the attack speed difference could be reduced through attack speed inner ability, decent speed infusion, and green potion from monster park. Could also include the attack speed buff from crimson queen soul, but it isn't consistant. As for sword vs mace. You get 2% more crit damage for using a sword, but the mace gets that sweet 10% ignore enemy def. So it's up to you, but I like extra crit damage, and resale value of swords. I use a mace on my paladin because I wanted to be different.

[@Veryfreshveryflourish24]

KyoWantsCute Hmmm... I am gonna do phantom link skill at some point so i am gonna go with mace. So 1h mace it is

[@KyoWantsCute]

Wonderful! Maybe one day you'll make a shadower or dual blade and your battle cry will be "this'll be an infinidagger adventure!" Then you can set your macro shout out to be "Infinidagger!" So when you respawn or have to rebuff, you scream it out xD

[@davidmesut3406]

I rlly wanted to watch the video, but yhe lag didnt let me

[@KyoWantsCute]

Sorry about that! Couldn't help it back then.

After a long break from Maple I’m coming back as a Paladin main, thank god I have a Kanna to carry me

[@KyoWantsCute]

Welcome back! May you protect not only yourself, but the paladin name as well! Idk I'm tired and about to go to sleep lol

[@Matt-eg8wr]

KyoWantsCute it’s hard to not protect yourself when you are a moving wall with a hammer

[@Wymorek]

How is this class in 2020?

[@KyoWantsCute]

It'll be better late 2020. They get vertical mobility and more range on their attack! Other than that, they're still a great defensive wall. I'll let you know in the video I make eventually

[@mike20451]

I'm having a hard time increasing my damage. I'm like 151 dealing 400k damage, I feel like I'm missing something, I tried enhancing with spell traces and star force, but that was what I got 😞

[@KyoWantsCute]

It's fine, it takes a bit to get more damage. At 151 you've still got some hyper skills to get, hyper stats to earn to get more points into damage, and new equips to earn. Eventually you'll want to make a bunch of different classes as well for link skills and legion effects to increase your damage as well. The best ones to increase your damage would be Demon Avenger, Ark, Kanna, and more! Keep going! You got this! Maybe one day I'll make a video about how to get stronger in maple.
