Default Reason To Be A Paragon

I've never made a Paragon character.

Tell me at least two things about Paragons that would easily want me to make one right now.

I think they are the coolest looking character, but I've never made one myself.

Quoted. For. Truth.

I've played for the best part of 32 months primarily as a Warrior toon for the purpose of title collecting. About a month ago i finally decided to muck around with a Para and if i had my time over again, i'd go Paragon without hesitation.

It's bloody hard to kill yourself or your team as a Paragon, at least in NM. Every area of the game that i had problems with as a Warrior has been a cakewalk with the Para. Some of that comes down to more experience and running better bars, but nothing compares to the party support power of SY and TNTF.

The whole concept of the paragon is cool.

Save yourself the time and energy. It's not worth it. Go make a Dervish instead.

TNTF and decent damage.

GFTE+TNTF=Lots of infinate energy, and with a good spear, lots of adrenline.

Sab's necro hero build with a def. buff paragon makes PVE and PVE hard mode seem like you are taking a hot spear through butter.

How about the best passive defence in the game with warrior comparable offence at range?

Not to mention a team of 8 paragons is > pretty much anything.

Possibly the best energy management in the game as long as allies are alive and around.


We need helmets.
