Meanwhile:The paladin lacks the striker's mobility to reestablish rangeThe paladin loses out on his "strikerish" damage, while the actual striker keeps it up.Which makes him utterly fail at being a striker once the line's broken or the mark acquires a ranged attack.It is a fine indictment of the Paladin as a striker, because actual strikers get their own class abilities that help them deal with this situation, and Paladins have to fall back on being a defender instead.</blockquote>
