Personally, I hate that.
Particularly for the lore of priests – priest players and their roleplay 
I know it’s “the lore” and all, but I extremely dislike how it’s presented as priests ‘upgrade’ into paladins … 
The only culture where priests can still be held in higher reverence than Paladins is the Draenei, but literally everything else shoehorns priests into being pathetic subhumanoid fodder for the Paladins to rescue or ascend into said-Paladins 
Part of why I made my whole thread – Priest Lore rant
