Gear

Only weapons and sets we can match to an item in the 1.0 game files. Tiers come from those files; a “likely match” agrees on 4–5 of 5 perk slots rather than all of them.

FAQ

Radiant Paladin vs Battlemage?
Both hold a one-handed sword. The Battlemage also casts from a shock wand (Thunder, Wizard, Mage Apprentice). The Paladin carries no wand or staff: its magic is Radiant Aura and Counterstrike, which deal fire damage around you in their pre-1.0 descriptions. It adds Arsonist for the fire sword and Water Aura for healing.
Radiant Paladin vs Sword & Board Tank?
The tank spends on parries, aggro and armor: Vigorous Deflection, Shiny Plates, Warden, Tower and Earth Aura. The Paladin keeps Heavy Plates and Battle Heal and puts the rest into fire around it (Radiant Aura, Counterstrike, Arsonist) and into Water Aura.
Does Water Aura heal me?
Its pre-1.0 description says it heals injured allies within 15 m and scales with Intelligence. We have no 1.0 text that says whether the caster counts. The build's sure self-heal is Battle Heal: it heals on a melee crit (1% per rank in the 1.0 files), and Veteran raises melee crit chance.
Best sword for the Paladin?
Enflamed Sword (T4) or Pyreblade (T5). Both are half cutting and half fire in the 1.0 files, so Warrior's Path and Arsonist both apply. None of the shields in our data is matched to a 1.0 item yet, so we do not name one.
When does the Paladin come online?
Radiant Aura and Counterstrike at full rank are affordable by level 9. The whole build is 47 points, complete by level 25 from level-ups alone.
