Paladin AA Guide

See also: Crusader AAs & Paladin AAs

Most of these recommended builds require that you have a number of AA points already, if not all 100!

There are certainly plenty of build ideas to choose from based on your play style. You may find that as you level, and acquire AA points, there will be more beneficial ways to spend your points. It may be wise to up your Healing line in the Paladin tree starting out so that you can be more self sufficient until you respec later on for tanking in raids and veteran groups.

It is generally considered a good idea to "enhance" what you use on your hotbar in the Paladin tree and place points in the Sentry/STA line on the Crusader tree (as STA tends to be a favorite for all Paladins) until you gain enough AA points to respec for your preferred recommended build.

Recommendations on AA Choices

 * Crusader AAs Sentry/STA(44872) Cavalier/AGI(44862 or 4488)


 * Paladin AAs HeroLine(21) WrathsLine(21)

Best with top weapon. Since LU36 this build is generally considered the best MT build, assuming you have a good weapon. Currently the top-5 are soulfire gladius, knobby kudgel, grim brimstone, emerald hammer, clearcutter machette. This build is better with these top weapons as it somewhat relies on 40% AE Autoattack 'trample' skill. Additionally, Gladius quest aka, the Swords of Destiny-- highly recommended for tanking Paladin! - http://eq2.wikia.com/wiki/Swords_of_Destiny_Timeline

MAX AGGRO & DPS

 * Crusader AAs Legieonnaire/INT(448) Sentry/STA(4481) Cavalier/AGI(448)


 * Paladin AAs HeroLine(21) WrathsLine(21)

"Best Build" according to Virutis of Chaotic Legion & Wozamil of Defiance, two of the top guilds. Max aggro & DPS are excellent for off-tank
