I'm sure JLH/Pandilex have their reasons for not letting elf and half elfs be paladins, so stop your whining. Maybe if you actually post without swearing, using caps lock or insulting people you might get a nicer answer.

You always swear at people for no reason.

Your whining by making this post, if you actually ask in a nice way people might listen to you without having a go at you. Try it sometime.

I think you just answered your own question: elves and half-elves would make good pallys, so JLH/Pandilex decided they shouldn't be pallys.

halflings make good pallys to why dont they just ban them as well?

Title: Re: elf and half-elf pallys
Post by Mephistroth on 07/26/03 at 22:41:54
Because they have to have at least one race that makes a good pally.

omg rich, get over yourself, 'Nightmist Legend', yea, right..

i agree on this because you can be 4 races with the other classes and paladins u can only be 2 races, so i think another race being allowed to become paladins would be great.

from an RP P.O.V.....

you can't just pick up a sword and say you're a paladin, it takes time, effort and perseverence...
(I'm guessing) Most races (in the Nightmist Realm) have frowned upon the paladin-practice since it is a very time consuming journey. Time spent meditating and learning the paladin ways could be better spent improving someone's bowmanship or sword-play proficiency(sp?) or even improving someone's magical abilities.

...lol now i'm probably gonna have all these people yelling at me for what i think of paladins.......be gentle  :-[ :'(

It seems that the profession of Cleric or Pacifist would be much harder than that of a Paladin. You can be almost every race with these.

Title: Re: elf and half-elf pallys
Post by Desolation on 08/04/03 at 00:33:39
it would seem mages would be a lot harder considering their low hp,being expensive to train, and their stamina gain is pretty slow.

Title: Re: elf and half-elf pallys
Post by KasumiFire on 08/04/03 at 00:54:18
Mages now get really nice HP, and contrary to popular belief, aren't as hard as people make them sound.

Now on-topic, I think it would make sense for Half-Elves to be able to be a Paladin. They are not so different from their Human brethren that they should be excluded from this class, are they?

hmm wonder if jlh would say sommit please

they realy should have elven palidins cause in the movies and shows you see them ridibg horeses with swords in thier hands casting magic on eachother same with thieves. they should have elven thieves

What movie would this be...

Regardless of films and such, if a dwarf can pull off being a thief, a half-elf IMO would make a rather capable Paladin. As for Elves being paladins, well it would make more sense to me than having halflings for them...

Dwarves are small and could be hard to spot. Elf and Half-Elf Paladins would seem stupid. Going around chopping your ankles shouting 'Raaaah I bite your knee-caps!'

Title: Re: elf and half-elf pallys
Post by Maltakano on 09/07/03 at 22:21:20
how can you have elf fighters then ?
if im not mistaken then elves and halfelves are all nicey nice , well isn't that what a pally does uphold thee greater godd and all? not having them just doesnt make sense to me
(btw i mogh correct grammer and stuff later but iim too full of pizza right now)

Ok, you've been reading the Narnia series faaaaaaar too long. Your looking at elves with the depiction of a childrens book. The more commonly accepted image of elves, are a tall, thin, solitary and agile people, who commonly have lighter shades of hair and pale skin. They are supreme archers, and reknown for their mastery of magic.

As for dwarves being believable as thieves? How are fat, cumbersome, noisy runts who can't even touch thier own toes, justified as being thieves? Small and hard to spot my azz, what they lack in height, they make up for in girth.

1/2lings would make good thieves too... seeing as they are small and quick...

But elves are supreme thieves/assassins/archers/rangers all round... hands down...

Elves would make Pallys amazing... but if they can't be pallys in D&D then i dont want them here...
1/2 elves however could work, since i rarely see a half-elf...

* applauds you

That has got to be, single handedly, the most retarded remark I have read all year, congratulations. You want D&D? You go play D&D. Quit polluting other peoples minds with your unoriginal drivel.
