The first platinum match that I played that got past wave 1 (got to wave 9) had a paliden. Damn was it nice of him to sit his fat butt down in choke points with his shield up to keep banshees focused on warping him over the rest of the team.

It's a great class if you know how to use it.

Can the Banshee magnet-grab you through your shield?

Didn't seem like she ever tried to grab him when he had his shield out. Honestly I haven't tried to use him after I unlocked him. I specced him played a bronze match to test it and felt it wasn't my play style. The only time the paliden ever died in that game was when we couldn't kill the enemies fast enough for him to keep his shield up or for him to reset it. Then it was everyone run for the hills while Hells Assailent (me) tries to find more Harrier ammo

Yea the banshee can grab thru the shield. The biotic missiles don't drain his health though.

Its a tank class. Its not a class that's really going to top the leaderboards but damn if it isn't great to have on the team.

I'd like to be able to shoot with one handed weapons though, pistols/smgs. With a accuracy penalty to balance it out.

That would be so much better. Flash freeze is good but its range is only about 1m.

Sacrifice damage for range and snap freeze is awesome.

Full mobility. Lol

In order for it to be a tech tank with full mobility it would need to be able to move and shoot while the shield it up.

I find it a lot easier to get off fire/cryo explosions than most other instances. Especially when doing the shield bash.
Fire shield bash + snap freeze = Fire explosion.

Why do people keep saying Snap Freeze can set off Tech Bursts? I've played The Paladin in several Gold matches now and not once has Snap Freeze set off a Tech Burst after priming with Energy Drain.

Any information on the "Tech Combo" evolution of Snap Freeze?

Watch at the 1:03 mark

I personally love this character. Snap Freeze and ED maxed to take care of shield and armor (passed on incinerate). Omni-Shield maxed to full strength and Fire Evo. And nothing is getting in his way.

Thanks for that. You prompted me to go back and test, and yes, the Paladin can self Tech Burst with Energy Drain + Snap Freeze, but the window is incredibly short, even with Recharge Speed on Energy Drain and 10% cooldown bonus from Gear.

He's a great character even without the shield imo. Snap Freeze is an awesome power.

Can tank quite a few shots with a fully specced shield (for health), although I'm not sure how it works against melees from Brutes, Phantoms etc.

A brute charge will destroy the shield while knocking you back but leaves your shield/barrier intact.

Yeah, i just used the spec sheet shown on the link and it seems you can really sort out this if spec correctly

Yes, they can.  And if the shield can somehow protect you, you need to be extremely precise with your positioning.

Snap Freeze can trigger Fire Explosions as well.  BioWare needs to release a Power Duration Increase gear already.  It would certainly help a lot of classes.

Should be able to use a pistol or dmg with less rof or someone said accuracy

Besides that it's my favorite one so far... Snap freeze is great. His melee is FAST and knocks down guys. I don't use the shield too much as cover is always around (had a nice shield during a pizza run though lol) and I've topped many score charts, not that it matters

He means that you can roll.  Krogan, Turians and Batarians can't.  The other human tanks are all Biotic.  Hence, he's a Tech Tank with full mobility.

[NYG1991]

Two questions.

Does snap freeze mess up biotic combos ala overload/ED?

What's the window for ED/freeze tech combo?

[Kungfu Nando]

My main grip is more thematic, a sentinel without a biotic power is just an engineer..... omnishield or not.

[silvsurfer]

ignore the shield and play him as the best tech caster in the game. fire and cyro explosions or tech bursts at your pleasure. use the shield for blocking doorways or chokepoints when doing objectives.

Wait, I just realized that the Paladin isn't even sort of a tank. Tanks can soak up damage and dish it out. The Paladin is just a wall.

It's walking cover.  It walks, then it stops and makes cover.

Then it gets blown up.

Krogan Sentinel and Kroguard remain the best two tanks there are.

[Scudman_Alpha]

he's not weak by any means 

he is an unique character, but the only thing is that he fails on execution making him outclassed as a living drone knowing there are other drones that are more effective and the one who made them can make them again the second they turn to dust by enemy fire,

he is there taking fire like an idiot without doing anything,serving as a wall yes but then his shield goes down and well sir you can't do much else then because before you can deploy it again you die because of the sheer  immense ammount of enemies in front of you

[lastofthefive0s]

Most of the silver matches I play with the Paladin I end up first or second on the leaderboard, not that I care...as long as we get the credits. It's one of my favorites to play now. Snap freeze for mobs, Energy Drain to rip down shields and barriers, so I can Snap Freeze them easy and Incinerate for taking down armored foes. He is a great all around fighter, imho. I usually play him with my Carnifex X with the piercing mod and the Pistol Cranial Trauma System mod on it and using the Vulnerability VI lvl3. Mmmmm, 20+ headshots a game.

[Mgamerz]

Support character. Energy drain -> snap freeze -> shield bash.
