That said, you'll occasionally find it useful to have the Paladin break out Assault weaponry to finish off weakened targets. The Paladin's Assault weaponry is actually stronger than the Sunrider's -14x10 damage instead of 12x10- while otherwise having identical stats, but it's still fundamentally Assault weaponry, and the way the numbers work out the Paladin will rarely be in a situation where Assaulting is getting some use out of a last bit of Energy that can't be spent on anything else. Literally the only reason you might ever use the Paladin's Assault weaponry is that it shares upgrades with the cannons and so the process of making them better makes the Assault weaponry suck less. Putting money into Aim helps a little, but since Aim upgrades are percentile the Aim gains are poor since the base Aim is poor. This is, unfortunately, not something the game provides any tools to offset. One flaw with the Paladin, though, is that its Aim is poor enough even cap ships can have a chance to dodge at a moderate distance, and the Paladin's alternatives suck for taking on cap ships/suck period and the Paladin doesn't have any 'cheats' like the Sunrider's Command-based teleport to offset the Aim problem.

With a little money put into damage plus getting to double-firing, plus an All Forward in place, the Paladin can outright one-round PACT Cruisers by itself! With the Paladin a part of your force, cap ships cease to be a problem-by-default. And the Paladin can do so fairly reliably while engaging in battlefield maneuvering thanks to the Bianca's Gravity, where the Sunrider you have to either be willing to waste Command Points on a jump or arrange for the numbers to work out so the Sunrider has 30 Energy to spare after firing its cannons twice, which is a tall order. Realistically you've already invested a fair amount of cash into the Sunrider, so initially the Paladin will be behind, but it doesn't take much money to get to the point of double-firing the cannons. (The Seraphim's base damage is much lower) Its base statline is the same as the Sunrider's with the exception that its Energy cost is 10 points lower. It's also your second source of good damage that doesn't care about shields or run out of ammo. This is the big thing about the Paladin it's your second source of big guns. The Paladin will dodge semi-regularly, lasting longer than you might expect, though unlike the Phoenix you shouldn't plan around it managing to dodge things. Poor Evasion for a Ryder, but not by as much as you might expect. It's not something I factor into my plans, after all. It's sufficiently unimportant I tend to actually forget the Paladin has a Flak rating at all. No, I don't get why it's not a multiple of 5 like the other Flak ratings are, either. This is enough Armor to substantially blunt Missile volleys and ensure the Paladin needs to be quite beat up before Assault weaponry starts doing real damage to it. It's actually decent competition with the Sunrider, thanks to having much more Evasion! The Paladin is by far your toughest Ryder. Ideally you'll usually have the Bianca drag it where you need it. Yes, the Paladin is even worse at moving than the Sunrider. This helps offset its need to get comparatively close to do useful work, contrasting with the Phoenix being even more close-combat oriented and yet painfully frail. It's also your toughest Ryder, able to take multiple cannons to the face without necessarily dying. It's slightly more versatile than the Seraphim as well, though its struggle to strike effectively at a distance makes it a bit more specialized. The Paladin is your first Ryder to have serious firepower, comparable to the Sunrider itself.
