Okay, so I can't say much as I've only invested about 15 hours or so into pillars so far as an Elven Wizard but I wanted to try something.... different, so I've since made a Paladin stats are as such below.
Human - Meadowfolk
Aedyr - Dissident.
Kind Wayfarer Knight of Mass Murder. 19 Might, 3 Con, 10 Dex, 18 Per, 10 Int, 18 Res. So I can't really speak for much experience as of yet, but I did have to mention this.
I've just reached Gilded Vale, managed to say something different to the angry folk attempting to beat Aloth into an early grave who then decided they'd try me out for size, I felt a little like Drizzt Do'urden from BG1 (If anyone remembers him 1-hitting those giant ogre-like-gnoll-type-thingies) as I 1-hit all 3 of them and they exploded into tiny bodily pieces around me.
Now before this I also attempted the bear in the cave just north of here and managed to die to the bear when the bear was SURELY going to die (What if I used potions!?!?) I gave up after 1 attempt to get a move on with things. I know a lot of people speak ILL of Paladins and their lack of decisive killing power but, that feels pretty incredibly strong to me. (Though I have only played a wizard so far )
In any case, if anyone can let me know weather or not I should be fearful of the future for my Paladin? or just stay strong and power on?...
Power to the Pally!
