Paladins Learn New PSM Skills
Paladins may now learn the following PSM Skills:
Shield Specialization - Shield Throw
Shield Specialization - Shield Trample
Combat Maneuver - Shield Sunder
Swift Justice will apply to Shield Throw and Shield Trample by reducing their RT by half, rounded down, e.g. 6 becomes 3, 5 becomes 2, and so on and so forth.
Code:
Paladins Learn 3x Shield Use (sort of)
Paladins can now train the Shield Use skill 3 times per level, and the base cost is reduced from 3/0 to 2/0. However, training is currently restricted to CHECK IN at an inn. In a future update this will be made available via GOALS.

Higher Vision (1610) - DS Changes
Higher Vision (1610) - DS Changes
The Defensive Strength benefit from 1610 has been raised to +1 for every Paladin Spell ranks above level 10, up to the player's level.
This means that the rank bonus has been doubled. Higher Vision's total possible DS bonus (before lore training) is now +100 at level 100.
You will need to STOP 1610 and recast 1610 in order to see the updated benefit.

Paladins - Block Specialization
Paladins (and paladins only) may now learn Block Specialization as a Shield Specialization.
Code:
Faith's Clarity (1612) - Redux Benefit
Faith's Clarity has gained the following benefit for paladins (and paladins only): The redux penalty for training in spells is significantly reduced, such that redux has no penalty up to 1.4x spell ranks and is penalized at a maximum of 50% at 2x spell ranks.
For example, a level 100 paladin with 140 ranks of spell training will have their redux calculated with 0 ranks, and a level 100 paladin with 202 ranks of spell training will have their redux calculated with 101 ranks.
