Finally an update for Tank Paladin in ROOC!

Summary

A Tank Paladin update for ROOC players tracking how the defensive route feels after recent meta movement. It is useful because tank value depends heavily on the current damage environment and what teams expect from their frontline.

Best for

Paladin players already interested in tanking, especially PvP or guild-focused players who need to know whether the route still earns its slot.

Our take

This is a patch-sensitive Paladin page. Use it as a current read on tank viability, but compare it with Sacrifice and Reflect pages before assuming one defensive route covers every fight.

How to use this guide

Use this as a PvP reference for Paladin, but copy the decision logic before copying the exact numbers. ROOC builds can change quickly when server level, refine access, card supply, and guild PvP priorities move.

For this guide, pay special attention to frontline pressure, durability, and target control. If your account is newer, under-geared, or mostly F2P, follow the cheaper stat, skill, and gear priorities first, then treat expensive upgrades as later optimizations.
