Horde Paladins: The new bane of the Alliance?

Paladin - Image 1If there is one thing any World of Warcraft Horde player will tell you about the Paladin class, it's that they're a royal pain. Never mind the fact they can wear all that heavy platemail and laugh off your damage - there's also their repertoire of buff/heal skills, which does wonders for their survivability. Now, imagine if the roles were reversed, and we find an Alliance player getting himself trounced...by a Paladin of the Blood Elf race.

Halecusis over at the WoW forums was narrating this personal encounter which took place at his Realm's BattleGrounds, and while he didn't die from the fight, it infuriated him that he was unable to kill the said Flash-of-Light-spamming Paladin enroaching at the Alliance's North Bunker in Alterac Valley (AV). And the clincher to this tales: Halecusis is himself a Paladin.

It's just once of the more interesting incidents getting reported even after The Burning Crusade expansion has taken root, although a lot of the forum members found themselves snickering over the predicament - talk about getting a taste of your own medicine! What's your take on this, guys - do you have any similar incidents to share, like say with the Shammies (aka the Shamans)?
