I would say that Dwoggurd was stronger character than any paladin I've ever played. I can honestly say this, because I fought Dwoggurd.

On to your argument. As for being able to kill inners, drive off defenders, etc etc etc. Was Aiekooso overpowered? That guy almost could not be stopped, no matter how many were defending. There was a scion conjurer not long ago, a female that I can't remember the name of, that would kill every maran on IN THE PROCESS of raiding. Not take them out one at a time, but while she also killed the inner. Blitzenturt could raid solo, and kill a whole slew of people in the process. There was an ex-tribunal cloud warrior that went to war with the village, and could kill several villagers while killing the destructor. I'm sorry man, but basically making it sound like only paladins can do that, is just wrong.
