Most people will prefer Cecil as a Paladin. In Final Fantasy IV, the Paladin is superior to the Dark Knight in literally every way possible. In later Final Fantasy games, the Paladin and the Dark Knight are treated as different classes rather than a special type of upgrade.
I like the SNES Dark Knight sprite way more than the Paladin sprite. Though on the DS it is the other way around. Not that I like the Paladin model any more, but I don't like the DK model nearly as much. In terms of functionality no contest, but that isn't very fun.
I love the dark knight, if Square hadn't purposely made him statistically useless after a certain point and curb his equipment pool, I would have loved to keep him. I also adore the DS version of his sprite, but I've got a boner for anything Amano...
Gameplay wise Paladin is better in every way. Story-wise I still prefer Paladin Cecil. He's with you for most of the game and it's a bridging point with Cecil in relieving himself of his sins.
Paladin Cecil, definitely. It fits his personality much better, and it looks much more unique and less generic than his dark knight form.
Also, I really like how radiant and bishounen his paladin form looks.
DARK KNIGHT>>>>
I love the Paladin job in any FF so my choice is easy.
I picked dark knight cause if he had good stats and better equipment his dark rays or whatever it is called would make it worth it. In Paladin you could only kill one monster at a time which was time consuming. Being able to hit all targets for good damage was what I liked about the dark knight. You did have to cure him more but the paladin had crappy white magic spells.
paladin:
lame clothes
horrible magic
looks like a girl or a terrorist
has very unbalanced armor
goody goody
dark knight:
goal of ff tactics
awesome armor
cool weapons
very macho
strong dark magic
The Dark Knight in Final Fantasy IV possesses no magical ability. How is a Dark Knight the goal of Final Fantasy Tactics when there are several job classes that are stronger than Dark Knight and provided by members of your party?Quote:
