Paladin Horde v. AllianceFollow

#1 Jan 16 2009 at 11:00 AM Rating: Decent
I was wondering what the difference between alliance and horde pallys are? I assume that the spells and abilities are roughly the same, but I was wondering more about what transitions an experience alliance pally would have to get used to to play on the horde side?

The only hard part would be remembering that Humans, NE, Dwarves, and Draenai aren't your buddies anymore, nor are any places they congregate.

Yes, I left out gnomes, gnomes aren't liked by either side, but with the Horde you get to kill them.

The difference is that the alliance paladins are real paladins while the blood elves should never have been able to be paladins.

The only real difference I noticed when I switched from Ally to Horde ,was that I die in the most horrible horrible way every time I rightclick the Ally flightmaster :/ (yes I have done it several times now... :D )

Only meaningful difference is the racial talents you get.

Don't get mad at Blizz because it took until BC to get Paladins right. Smiley: schooled

Right, because it's only fair that one side gets a certain class while the other does not.

You could say the same things about shamans. "Horde shamans are real shamans while the draenei should never been able to be shamans."

I must admit it is kind of awkward having Draenei try to contact their ancient ancestral spirits on a completely different planet that has no ancestors...

With that said the difference is mainly racials. Blood Elves of course as a race tend to have higher intellect/mana than the other paladin races. Although really after level 20 the difference is so minimal its not worth paying attention too.

Alliance Paladins are true paladins. They worship the light. They are devoted followers. Whereas the blood elves are a bastardization (no its not a bad word when used properly...) of the paladin. They are manipulating the light and using it for their own gain rather than serving it (although after Sunwell Plateau this is in question).

Alliance gives you a greater range of customization as far as starting areas, models, and racials. Whereas every Horde paladin will start in the same place (although you can of course travel to other places to level...) with the same racials and limited to Blood Elf models only.


Beyond these differences there no longer is a difference. As of patch 3.x the faction-only paladin skills were given equivalent duplicates and talent trees of both have always been identical.

Seal of Blood = Seal of the Martyr
Seal of Vengeance = Seal of Corruption


And in all fairness gnomes aren't the only race hated. Blood Elves (especially males) are equally hated ESPECIALLY by old school horde players and in general, by all alliance players.
