Are they playing holy caster or holy melee?

Patch notes were a bit tricky - mentions Vindicate but I don't see that spell in the paladin skill tree.

I'd guess most ppl are playing Holy Melee b/c of all the buffs to his skills. Sounds like he's a beast through most of the game. Haven't heard much about end-game though. And Vindicate is Pally's innate skill.

Went in t/d Tristram (ie. save cain) and didn't see the new Butcher's Lair at all? Where is it located? o_O

In the burning house to the far left. It's hard to see, you'll have to cursor over the fire to get the name to pop up.

Yes I can see he had all the melee skills increased but the buffs on the caster side (to Solar Flare and Dragon Wyrms) could be significant as well.

So what would a holy melee paladin look like - which are the big skills in his honour tree and... would he choose Light or Shadow "influence" tree?

Everyones going light from what I can tell and I will be too. The increased speeds from rapture, sacred armor, and hoplites avoid are just so nice.

Well, he'd be the dude clad in heavy armor and wielding a giant hammer. :mrgreen:

As the perfected Incarnation of the Dragonknight, the Rapturous sight of he and his Hoplites charging into battle would Plague the minds of even the fiercest demons. He grew up training in the Colosseum, visiting Divine Judgment upon his opponents and Retaliating againt any heathens who took up arms against him, so he wouldn't need to hone those skills further (though he may revisit the Colosseum from time to time if he finds his skills are lacking). In his downtime, he can be found deep in prayer, fortifying his Dragonheart against the encroaching darkness.

Taken Straight from my guide:

Rathma's Square

Location: Profance Cells (Caldeum - Once you are in the Profane Cells, go to the Western Entrance. Once you did that, you're in the Bastion of the Triune. Then click on the entrance that is right in front of you. It will lead you to Rathma's Square.)

When you're in the Profane Cells, there are 2 entrances to bastion of the Triune. Use the Western entrance
