Would it be considered abuse if it was in...no. That's why it won't go in. I'd love to be the Emperor Anti-Paladin of Empire if it did exist though. WE could be gankalicious all we wanted and I could guarantee to get the kill every time for the biggest axe you've ever seen.

You say it's an interesting roleplay opportunity...I say it's ripe for abuse to powergame the A-P class.
