Blade Paladin
| ||||||
|
TheBlade Paladin (Japanese:
As a second-tier class, blade paladins tend to be quite strong and reliable. Their stats are quite balanced, except for their resistance, which is relatively low, although this is normal for classes using physical weapons. Since they ride on horseback, they have high movement and weight stats. Their possession of theCanto skill allows them to use leftover movement spaces after other actions, such as attacking or trading. However, since third-tier classes exist inRadiant Dawn, their power is dwarfed by that of fully promoted classes.
Blade paladins are promoted fromSword Knights. They can then becomeGold Knights.
