Paladin makes some sense because they are the type that absolutely needs the mechanics to be fixed, proper reactions and such for smites and abilities.
And there allready are "Paladin" npcs in game, that dont have proper abilities yet. O_o Or at least, i dont know about any Barbarian, Sorcerer, Monk, or FIGHTING (wich would exclude Alfira) Bard. o_O
I still dont understand why cant we change Race for our hirelings. Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are!
