Give Paladins a Lust ability

Hear me out. Currently 3 classes can cast a Bloodlust type mechanic: Hunters, Shaman, and Mage. 2 DPS and 1 healer. 2 Mail users and 1 cloth user. Currently no tank class has a usable lust and the balance is off between DPS and healer. I believe another lust should be added into the game to either druid or paladin (Leather or plate) to balance the classes/specs/gear type. I believe it should to go paladin over druid due to the amount of utility each bring to the group. Druid bring vast amounts of utility ( Brez, group speed boost, group CC) whereas Paladin are greatly lacking in this area (Devo aura…).

A Lust ability to Paladin would greatly bring it up to par with what other classes offer.

Paladin has Blessings (Sacrifice and Protection are amazing), Devotion Aura, Immunity, strong off-healing…

Idk I don’t think utility is something paladins lack.

Also HoJ and they can spec into an AoE disorient. Paladins are fine as they are. If they were given a lust or brez they’d be too strong, in fact.

What do you mean by that?
In M+ my Paly tank is usually the TOP healer :slight_smile:
been running +5/6 with him when he was 175 geared. thats stupidly insane.

Sorry but if any plate class got bloodlust/heroism, I’d say give it to warriors. Makes sense when you think about it.

can we call it “shout of Lust” ? or something like that? that would be awesome! :slight_smile:

It will never happen, and it will not improve the sad place (prot) warriors are in atm.

Yep I agree, to an extent. I think maybe a DK should get the lust ability though by means of a new pet system for DK’s. Dk’s being able to tame new undead humanoid creatures like necromancers.

lol I don’t know. But, of all the plate classes warriors make the most sense. Exactly because of the shouts.

Oh the nightmares of a Ret paladin popping bubble, lust and then wrecking the world :slight_smile: Paladins already have plenty of group utility!

I don’t see why any tank would need lust. Gotta do some extra fast blocking!

Dk needs it… mass hysteria it shall be called.

Considering the developers’ absolute refusal to balance classes/specs/talents to discourage any strong meta, what would be actually good for the game is having more UNIQUE niches. Bloodlust being shared by 3 classes is actually a good thing, since it kind of gives those three classes a bit of desirability aside from just their damage output.

Every class should bring something scarce to the table, even if it’s shared with a few other classes/specs. This is a good way to promote diversity of class and other player choices. It is the much-needed antidote to the horrible meta of “bring a boomkin or affliction lock or fire mage because they do the most damage.”

and perhaps when they lust it also rests the cd on wings, gives a full bar of holy power, and activates the rogue cold blood ability too

Yeah I don’t think Paladins are lacking in the utility department… So no.

Paladins are, by tradition, lawful good. They are measured and exact in their fighting and not prone to losing their temper.

Very true. Warriors on the other hand…

Bloodlust/Heroism doesn’t really scream “Paladin” to me.

…Priests, on the other hand.

Beware of mixing priests and paladins., especially the holy ones.
