Paladin Intimidate

[rimble]

Eh, Paladins got Intimidate. I should probably keep it in Lammania Discussion, just wanted y'all to see it.

Paladins getting intimidate is total win.


Paladins not getting a free lesser heart to take advantage of this is total lose.

So it's not retroactive? If so... this is a total middle finger to Paladins... Then again, after further thought, Paladin/Fighter multiclasses would then have issue with getting double the skill points into intimidate, because if you had 23 points in, and they switched it, it would give you 46 points into intimidate.

At any rate, I would have rather them have fixed hate generation than to give us intimidate... I know I get a lot of arguments about this, but I find Hate Tanking more effective against bosses than intimidate. Simply because, if you put out enough DPS, and have hate generation, you can hold a boss's aggro better with hate tanking, and be more use to the party than intimidating and pulling out a shield.

It allows you to add to the total DPS, and you don't have to keep spamming intimidate every few seconds. On high-damage bosses, it can end badly for the group if you can't get and intimidate off in time and the boss decides to aggro to your casters, healers, etc...
