A Paladin~ Willing to risk thys life in order to save anothers...

Hey guys, so basically this "Paladin Class" would be a real team player. He would essentially be able to survive lots of damage and protect others. So here is "The Paladin!"

PALADIN

ARMOR- Diamond legs and boots and helmet. Iron Chestplate. Has 3 steaks. 1 healing potion.

WEAPONS- Iron sword with knockback 1 ( To keep enemies away)

SPECIAL ABILITYS- Can "Guard" someone by right clicking a fellow teammate with a feather. Guarding means that any damage done to a teammate being guarded is halved and if the teammate is headshotted, the headshot will not work and will basically be a regular arrow shot. Only one teammate can be guarded at once. A Paladin cannot be headshotted either yet can still be insta killed by pyros. If the Paladin is 15 blocks away from the teammate being Guarded, the guard ability wears off. If the teammate being guarded happens to be killed, the guard ability is gone and must be used again.

WEAKNESSES- Paladins can easily be killed by pyros or engineers, or even a good archer. Being swarmed by 2 heavies is also a good strategy when fighting paladins.

STRATEGIES FOR PALADINS- Paladins are very effective when wanting to protect a flagholder.Also if going for a good killstreak combo with a friend, perhaps the friend would be a chemist to buy the paladin and the chemist can stay alive even longer with the paladins help. Paladins guarding heavies would be very effective also because it would mean the heavy would survive EVEN LONGER. Paladins with a good ninja would be effective because the ninja could kill enemies fast while surviving longer due to the paladins "Guard". Paladins are good for defense due to their knockback sword and strong armor. BEST OF ALL? Paladin with ANOTHER Paladin would be very effective and strong combo.

Anyways guys, thanks for reading and I hope you can really give some tips and improvements! Thanks guys.

I actually really like this class. I would definitely buy it if it was developed.

This sounds really cool.

Wow, Im actually getting some good responses... I hope this class makes it to CTF! :D

Ok good ideas guys... anyone else have any ideas or improvements for the class?

lol

If your teammate takes half the damage, paladin gets the other half...

maybe an enchantment table instead of a feather.. or a book and quil..

decent Idea

Nonsense, CTF needs a lot of classes.

The more classes, the more variety and less heavies and archers :D

Lol,I do think CTF would be cool with more classes but I would still like heavies and archers, because even though they are free, they can be very effective on some maps.

Yet, I do see where you are going with that post so thanks :P

Nonsense? Go to hunger games, if you want many classes. CTF is good as it is - the only thing that still misses is Scout which soon will be included, I think :D CTF doesn't need more classes because it's pretty balanced now - OP engineer in my oppinion and maybe a little bit too OP soldiers. The class idea is good, though, but I don't think CTF has a lack of classes.

i reckon that they should be as strict with kits as they are currently with classes, and let a couple more classes in.

Simple.
Three ways to make CTF better.
Add Two free classes
1. Add Scout, Add Mage (or some other free class)
Add a single premium class
2. Add Paladin
Remove one of the premium classes
3. Remove Assassin and or Ninja

CTF shouldn't have too much classes. If you want lots of variety go to HG.
But it's OK, you're new here. You still don't understand some things.

Thanks guys I'm getting great feedback. About the 4 paladins guarding 1 person, I believe I said that paladins can only guard one person and another paladin cannot guard that person.
Anyways tho thanks for the responses guys, keep them coming!

Awesome idea! Maybe a limit only 2 paladins can guard one regular..
