What do you think about the paladin in Tibia is not like the paladins of the mystical stories?

Question

Usually in the other Rpg games and mystical stories the paladins are like a light warrior, they use hammer or sword and tend to look a meele combat. 

In tibia The paladins are like a hunters, use croswbows and bows and like a distance combat. 

And what do you think about this?

paladins in tibia aren't longer so distant from their other rpg versions, they are also divine warriors with good stats (hp enough, their increased cappacity) and with the implement of diamonds arrow they are no longer just distance fighters but a diversified character who can be a close combat dps or an incredible shooter yet in both case it is still a divine warrior who use holy magic to beat his enemies while have stats that archers in other games/stories don't have. so as summary they aren't only hunters who fight at distance

either way this question is actually a duplicated from this one https://www.tibiaqa.com/4669/why-are-paladins-called-paladins

Answer 1

Before the holy magic I can agree with you, but now, I see the paladin as a warrior of light hehe....
My opinion is the creators of Tibia just liked de name Paladin and put it as a vocation in game

Answer 2

To be honest Paladins are the most open vocation at Tibia, but what you are saiyng take us to the past. When Tibia was created we use to have 4 vocation extremely defined and totally different amog them but alog of the years it was changing and vocations became more balanced and similar to each one. Today Sorcerers and Druids are basically the same thing with the exception of "sio" and "gran mas res", same to EK and RP which basically the only important difference is the spell "Challenge".

I do not trust Paladins at Tibia are so different from others MMO's think the main difference you can find more vocations to choose at other games so they can make it more specific.
