Since I've come back to the game, I find myself waffling between my "favorite" classes, just like I did in the old days :) One big difference this time around is that personas make it simpler and less painful since I don't have to repeat quests and achievements (unless I just want to). PAL/SK is the big one for me. I love playing both of them, really. While I am playing one of them, I am always comparing how the other one would handle whatever situation I am in better. I end up trying to convince myself the class I'm *not* playing is better until I switch personas and the madness begins again ><

How many of you suffer from this "affliction", and which classes do you waffle between?
 
I've done enough testing between PAL & SHD that I've come to the conclusion that PAL is better, and always has been the better tank than SHD, for 2 reasons.
1. Rez since Classic. Lotta people think you need a cleric in those early days, nah. Just use a paladin.
2. Act of Valor. Shadowknights are supposed to be the ruler of death but can't even kill themselves smh. I will forever be in debt to the paladins who have done a raid saving Act of Valor.
That said, I have mained most classes. Tanks are by far the most fun lol.

I don't like driving my paladin(s), but i think they are severely underrated. the threat you can get by using the splash heal is gnarly. they're incredible PL toons, and can easily pl 5 shitters and having a rez is nice instead of an sk/clr or sk/merc
