Unless your <lvl 22, in which case you're too small to use it.... in which case get your ass into gear and earn the 3.5m you need Then theres also the small matter of the 17 str you need to use the tower shield... So if your a helf or elf paladin, damnit save yourself the suckage and suicide now But yes, unless your tanking as a paladin trying to pull the quickest possible XP, forget smite and use bash instead. I'm still not entirely convinced a smite will do more damage then say 2 bashs will, especially if you have more then 2 bashers in your party. I guess alotta that depends on the intellegence of the critter in question, the smarter they are, the faster they stand up, the less rounds they're down and vulnerable getting pounded for the extra damage I'm talking about. However if your just out to have some fun, make some cash, exp and advance some skills, nothing beats bash. Bash is heavenly for raising skills, especially when theyre low. Hell, I encourage as many of you pallies out there to try out some different skills. In my experience paladins skill damn well nearly as fast as rangers, with all of the weapon skills. And unlike rogues theres not the parry limitations of weapons screwing up your tanking ability, as long as its 1 handed, you can tank with it

Looking back upon this, I gotta laugh at myself. In the many years since I started this, I've since made my paladin my fastest tanking alt to-date, and the only tank I've safely broken the 1 million experience in 1 hour bar. To imagine a paladin tank NOT smiting now is just...silly. Like I said, gotta laugh at myself.
