Is the inquisitor really the best paladin?

    hmm i thought lum's machine gave 20% MR. I might very well be wrong of course cause wasn't closely watching my char's MR. But probably i had somethings else too that gave MR. (I haven't gone that far with my undead hunter yet)

    Come to think of it, 20% MR from the machine sounds too much :)

    [​IMG] Yes you only get 5% if you follow the directions on Lum's note. Mabye if you fool with the machine you get more, but how brave are you? ;)

    Not to mention that Carsomyr does not normally add 50% MR; it sets 50% MR. Since the game is a bit buggy it will sometimes show more, but it will get reset.

    Since I've got no answer, I would assume that that means no one knows the answer, or they just don't plain like me :( :(.

    I think I'd go with the no one knows the answer option DMage. I certainly don't know :D and I'm sure people do like you. :D

    [​IMG] I don't know for certain, but my gut tells me no, because the game probally tags Draconis and Abizagal differently in their two forms, one form scripted and labled more like a fighter/mage and the other a dragon. But the only sure fire way to know is to take a cavalier to Abizagal's Enclave. Actually my gut is telling me I shouldn't have had Taco Bell for dinner.
    :grin: ;) :grin:

    I've gotta go with TIamat here. The only reason not to play an inquisitor is the fact that you already get one (and two paladins may be a bit much). Lay on hands, and cleric spells are nice to have but there is no dispel magic that is better than the Inquisitors. I can't recall ever running out of true seeing spells with Keldorn around and the fact that Keldorn cast dispel magic so quickly is truly useful in a multitude of situations. With Carsomyr, Keldorn becomes the bane of all evil practitioners of magic. He really bocomes a witchhunter extraordinaire. The Calaier and Undead hunter just can't compare.

    [​IMG] I'll have to go with a Cavalier, purely due to the fact that you get some nifty bonuses (immunity to fear etc) and that the negative side of the Cavalier is really minor, seeing as I normally use Paladins as close range hackers.
