Legendary Ash -> RE: Paladin Order Tiering? (4/27/2020 22:16:13)

If you are familiar with the skills of ShadowScythe General, the Undead Rebirth's Shadow Seal blocks both Paladin Highlord's Light Wave and Archpaladin's Righteous Seal, it is evidence of those light abilities being below that of SSG, at the same time both Purifying Flame, Commandment and Sacred Magic are not blocked, thus offers no evidence of a difference in rank between the two.
In likeness with comparing varieties of Melee, Ranged or Magic classes of different combat style and/or elemental realm, they cannot be compared in a way to indicate superiority.
Archpaladin's class description states its one of the Paladin's Order highest ranks, this alone indicates that the highest ranks comprises of not one type of Paladin.
Unless its an expansion to the inherited theme of effects/playstyle backed by in-game Lore and/or prerequisites, this is evident in Archpaladin requiring Paladin rank 10 as lower level training and has higher potency skills in comparison, namely Paladin's to Highlord/Archpaladin 's debuffs in damage, hit/crit chance, it does not support a claim that one is of higher rank.
My advice is to base your suggestions off of expanding on Paladin/Highlord 's flavor to set it apart from Archpaladin.
Its documented that successful suggestions are those addressing evidence backed concerns of a class struggling with design issues such as changing mana regeneration models as Chunin's -hit chance/-haste are at odds with the 3 mana from receiving a hit and Evolved Clawsuit's stacks/damage buffs don't affect regen, and making Chunin/Grenadier 's skills consistent in the number of targets as the range of one, two and three targets produces inconsistent output and increases health loss reducing survivability.
I will mention that the majority of revamps or updates of older classes do not take in consideration of a player's take in the suggestion thread due the majority lacking the concept of balance and/or knowledge of the game's standards among power, cooldown and cost, the current class designers are competent in coming up with refreshing designs and overall balance.
