Paladins specialize in the use of close-range combat, but are also masters of White Magic allowing them to attack and heal. The Paladins are often considered tanks because of their high defense and shield mastery abilities.
The Paladin can make use of many attack and magic abilities that make them a useful member of any team. Many of their abilities create large amounts of enmity, drawing enemies nearer to them so they can follow up with powerful stunning attacks. Along with important close-range abilities the Paladin can also make use of White Magic to heal themself or allies. Paladins are also master of destroying the undead.
