The '''Paladin''' (パラディン, ''Paradin'') class is a class of strong soldiers on horseback. [[Cavalier]]s change class to paladins in most games, although there are some exceptions. Paladins first appear in {{FE1}}, and they have appeared in every game since except for {{FE10}}, in which it is divided into the [[Blade Paladin]], [[Lance Paladin]], [[Axe Paladin]], and [[Bow Paladin]] classes. Usually, they can use multiple weapons, which have varied greatly throughout the games. See the stats section for details.


Paladins are very strong units with great stats in all categories. They have no clear weaknesses, and their fast [[movement]] makes them even more useful. They are a very versatile class that can survive in many situations. Since they are promoted units, they naturally have high stats.
The '''Paladin''' (Japanese: {{hl|パラディン|Paradin}} ''Paladin'') is an [[:Category:Advanced classes|advanced]] mounted [[class]] which debuted in {{FE1}} and is present in almost all subsequent games. It is conventionally the [[Class change|promoted]] form of the [[Cavalier]], with the sole exception of {{title|Radiant Dawn}}, in which it does not exist itself and is instead divided into the separate weapon-specialist [[Blade Paladin]], [[Lance Paladin]], [[Axe Paladin]], and [[Bow Paladin]] classes.


Usually, cavaliers change class to paladins, but there are several exceptions. In ''[[Gaiden]]'', they promote from the [[Cavalier]] class and can change class again to the [[Gold Knight]] class. In ''[[Seisen no Keifu]]'' and ''[[Thracia 776]]'', cavaliers or [[troubadour]]s can become paladins. In ''[[The Sacred Stones]]'', cavaliers can change class to paladins or [[Great Knight|great knight]]s. In ''[[Path of Radiance]]'', [[Sword Knight|sword knight]]s, [[Lance Knight|lance knight]]s, [[Axe Knight|axe knight]]s, and [[Bow Knight|bow knight]]s can all become paladins.
Throughout the course of the {{FES}}, the weapons available to Paladins have varied and the class has had access to all four physical weapon types at some point, but the use of [[sword]]s and [[lance]]s is the most consistent weapon setup for the class. Paladins are a potent class with strong stats across the board, including uniquely high [[resistance]] by the standards of physical units. Regularly described as a balanced class, they possess good defensive endurance, [[Strength|offensive power]], and [[Skill (stat)|skill]] and [[speed]] in equal measure. Additionally, as an advanced mounted class they possess high [[movement]].
 
In the majority of appearances, Cavaliers [[class change]] to Paladin, though variations on the class's class-change lineage exist. {{title|Gaiden}} has Cavaliers promote to Paladin, then promote again to [[Gold Knight]]. In {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and {{title|Thracia 776}}, [[Troubadour]]s also promote to Paladin and have female-exclusive access to [[Staff|staves]] as well as swords and lances. {{title|The Sacred Stones}}, {{title|Awakening}}, and {{title|Fates}} provide Cavaliers with the choice between promoting to Paladin or [[Great Knight]]. In {{title|Path of Radiance}}, the four weapon-specific mounted classes—[[Sword Knight]], [[Lance Knight]], [[Axe Knight]] and [[Bow Knight]]—all promote to Paladin, and when doing so the player is allowed to choose a new secondary weapon type to be gained by the individual unit. Similarly in {{title|Engage}}, the three weapon-specific mounted classes (called Sword, Lance and Axe Cavaliers in this game) promote to Paladin, but the class only has access to a single weapon type out of the three. Usually this is the same weapon as the cavalier's original chosen type, but if they have acquired additional weapon proficiencies, they may choose another variant of Paladin to promote to.

<!--In {{FE1}}, {{FE11}}, and {{FE12}}, they can use [[sword (weapon)|swords]] and [[lance (weapon)|lances]], like cavaliers. In {{FE2}} they can only use lances. In {{FE3}}, they can use lances when mounted and swords when [[dismount]]ed. In {{FE4}}, male paladins can use swords or lances; female paladins can use swords, lances, and [[staff (magic)|staves]]. In {{FE5}}, male paladins used swords and lances, but only swords when dismounting; female paladins used swords and staves at any time. In {{FE6}}, {{FE7}}, and {{FE8}}, they used swords, lances, and [[axe (weapon)|axes]]. In {{FE9}}, they can use two weapons out of swords, lances, axes, and [[bow (weapon)|bows]], depending on which class they promote from and which weapon they choose. In {{FE10}}, they are divided into the [[Blade Paladin]], [[Axe Paladin]], [[Lance Paladin]], and [[Bow Paladin]] classes. -->
