Pally or Drk?

Hey there guys. So I currently have a dilemma and I was hoping you guys could help me out. I know there have been plenty of threads like this in the past but I have some specific questions for you guys. If you guys could please vote and answer the following questions in the chat, that would help me a lot. Thanks!

1. Who is a better mobber?
2. Who is a better bosser?
3. Who has better survivability (considering Drk's drain is OP)
4. Who has a more consistent range (aka who has to rebuff more often/if their range fluctuates constantly)
5. Who needs to pot more often (especially MP pots)
6. Which one has a higher base critical rate?
7. What do you enjoy about each class?

1. Who is a better mobber? Well both are great mobbers atm, but i think DK can clean a map faster with their lvl 170 hyper, so DK.
2. Who is a better bosser? Pally bcuz they give more advantage to a party (parashock guard, threaten, CO, Bind and resurrection) and Void elemental for bosses like magnus, RA, hilla, PB, empress... so if u want to solo or go in a party pally is the way.
3. Who has better survivability (considering Drk's drain is OP) Pally has god mode and godly defense, we can survive hp% attacks and we are in divine shield mode almost 100% of the time so pally.
4. Who has a more consistent range (aka who has to rebuff more often/if their range fluctuates constantly) Well Dks dont need to rebuff so often, pallies are 5 charges - blast - 5 charges to get maximum range, so dk wins here.
5. Who needs to pot more often (especially MP pots) Well both dont use many mp pots(whats hp pots?) so is a tie.
6. Which one has a higher base critical rate? DK, but pallies can reach 60-80% with evey attack and with hypers is easy to reach 100% with blast.
7. What do you enjoy about each class? Pallies are tanks and dk is batman(lel) so both are great and now even better than ever. paly both and choose.

Read this thread earlier today and decided once again to make a pally. Actually made it to 4th job this time and I don't regret it.

1. Who is a better mobber? In my opinion Pally is a better mobber in some ways because of his elements that he uses and it makes it super fun and it's really good too. Also depends on the weapon too...If Pally uses a 2H Mace then yeah DrK is better but if you use a 1H Mace/Sword then yeah Pally is better all the way.
2. Who is a better bosser? DrK hands down. 2nd on DPS chart for bossing.
3. Who has better survivability (considering Drk's drain is OP) - DrK has like 40 second buffs that give him invincibility and then a 60 second cooldown so you're still waiting for the 20 seconds and you're Semi-Exposed. Also has Reincarnation but the thing is, is that you have to just go Ham when it activates or else you'll die but as far as just going in, tanking damage, drawing attention then yeah Pally.
4. Who has a more consistent range (aka who has to rebuff more often/if their range fluctuates constantly) - Pally is ALOT less dependent on buffs than DrK because if DrK loses Cross Over Chains...His Range literally almost gets cut in half. So as far as the better buffer then Pally.
5. Who needs to pot more often (especially MP pots) - Pally uses more MP pots while DrK has a skill that lets him regain on hit so Pally repots more often.
6. Which one has a higher base critical rate?- DrK
7. What do you enjoy about each class? - DrK is fun in my opinion but his rebuffing is ridicoulous because you have to rebuff with Sacrifice every 60 seconds and then watch the cooldown wait for it to end and then go ham again.
Pally is WAY enjoyable for me because I love how he works with the elements and how he's not just stuck spamming one skill he's constantly swapping and not as dependent on buffs. With party Skills (Parashock, Res, Etc. etc.) and then his own little charge passive buff, Pally is a super fun class. So if I were to vote, Paladin.

[quote=MrRik]I've recently switched from Hero to Pally and then from Pally to Drk and this is my opinion:

1. I think Pally and Drk are almost even with mobbing the only difference is that Drk just spams 1 skill and with pally you can fool around with the elements (although elektricity is the strongest)
2. I think all are good at bossing while I also think that Drk has a little negative side because of sacrifice needed to use Gungir decent(w/e) while pally can spam blast and hero's skills are great for 1vs1
3.Pallys defence is OP with my Pally I had like max defence so you dont have to worry about that lol and what your saying is also true Drk has a nice drain skill which helps you survive
4. I dont know for hero anymore but Pallys buffs are quite slow in charging time (elemental void GOD that takes like forever) but Drk has buffs that are like 30 seconds (sacrifice which is one of your main skills to get an even better range)
5. none of them really burns pots its really the same with every one of the 3
6. I loved my pally because of his dmg but it got quite boring because of the elemental spam on mobs and blast on bosses, now that I have a Drk I think they are a little more fun because of the revive skill and hitting 20 times otherwise you die (GODDAMN YOU GOLLUX)

I hope this helps [/quote]

Alright, thanks. I'm assuming you play your Drk more often than your pally.
