What is the best race for PLD. : FFXI General Discussions

pld meh get a war to tank things...
anyways i like hume plds got mp to hold hate and hp prity even. thing with galka is they have no mp they rock when it comes to tanking gods bu for exp i hate them myself. end game plds = galka
hume for exp(and a good pld hume can do just as good as a galka. the main pld in my ls is a hume.

I'd say best race for Paladin is elvaan for a few reasons. 1: 2nd Highest Vitality. 2: Highest Charisma which is used for holding hate. 3: Highest Mind, which is used for magic defense. 4: Highest Defense. 5: Strongest attack so you are no totally gimp if you ever want to melee. 6: 2nd Highest HP which is GOOD for hnmls paladin. 7: Not completely gimp MP like Galka, so you can fire off some Cure IVs if you ever run into some serious trouble, or need to pull alot of hate. 8: Elvaan look badass in PLD gear, I mean, look at my icon lol. So over all I'd say Elvaan is the best cadidate for Paladin for these reasons.

Sorry for reposting lol, On that MP note, Elvaan paladins also have a good amount of MP not just for Cure IVs when in trouble with HP or Hate, but also, good mp for exp partying because they have just the right amount to never run out, and not look like "What the !@#$%^&*, why aren't you curing yourself?".

you may have that but you are the fugliest race of them all. i say it again, taru > all

I would have to agree but I think mithras look better as plds.

PSH No, Elvaans are pimp lol we are tall and graceful. Any overall we rock at PLD, I mean there is an AA that is Elvaan PLD, that's saying something, so Elvaan = Best PLD lol

ive seen taru's tank better than any elvaan. hell i tanked better on my bst as taru sometimes than the pld.

Idk, whenever I have a taru as a PLD they always die a lot.

ive almost -NEVER- seen a good elvaan player, reguardless of the stats, simply how it is.


taru's seem to be the pimpest of the pimpy. its BECAUSE of there lacking hp theyre forced to be pro, which makes them >> elvaan.

yep, taru know we are at a disadvantage at hp so take more care at their tanking.

for me Elvaan are the best race for pld because they have a lot of mind , str , hp , vit ^^ but they bad mp ... :'o

any race's weakness can be made up for with gears, only thing that matters is skill. i wonder how long until this topic dies and someone gets the bucks haha

Idk he said it would last 2 weeks but that was like 5 days ago.

its 2 weeks of no posts which ends it automatically. i dont think he wants to end it manually
