Hero to Paladin?

I was contemplating on job-switching my main character from a Hero to a Paladin, but I'm uncertain if I should do it or not.
I want a class that is able to boss efficiently, and I heard that Paladins are able to survive %HP attacks including DR, which is a major plus IMO.
The reason why I'm uneasy about this change is because I'll have to swap out my 280ATT 1H Fafnir Axe for my 237ATT Lionheart Cutlass, but other than that, I'm prepared for a switch.

What should I do?

If you like their bossing style, then by all means switch.

well u could sell/trade that 1h axe for a 1h mace/sword with almost the same stats, or u could sell it and try to find a clean 2h mace and scroll it urself, that would be for more range, but as pally ur range will be higher than what it is now as a hero, bcuz RED gave us almost 100% total damage, like +80 att buffs, so u will see the difference there and u know that pallys used to shine for their defense, not for their attack, but now its both <3

@SombraManx: It was really weird. I cast scarosanct, 5 seconds later empress uses DR, I spam blast on her, died 2 seconds later.

[quote=nhan1st]Not DR. I tried attacking Empress with my godmode hyper on while she put up DR as a test. I died. You can tank everything but DR. You need to be able to crash and bind them first before they cast it in order keep continuously attacking.[/quote]

you shouldn't die on sacrosanct.. that must be a bug

before my pally would do 1's on DR

Not to mention Blast does insane damage for a non-cooldown Warrior skill anyway.

PSOK your Fafnir and put it on a Demon Slayer (or just sell it) if you decide to switch to a Pally.

Kind of a waste having to lose the axe... and Heroes are designed to boss. I mean, look at Enrage - it changes your attacks from hitting multiple enemies to increasing damage and focusing it onto ONE. Combining that with Panic (which can put a boss under darkness status which causes added damage through Chance Attack) and Puncture (which raises criticals when it hits a target) and you're going to begin steamrolling through many of the bosses you come across.

Well, either way, it's up to you.

Only downside is not having cool red orbs.
