Defend yourself even better when equipped with a shield!

In-game description.

Paladin is a crown in Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light obtained by defeating Lucifer in Spelvia.

The Paladin's special ability allows the player to defend themselves better with shields. Like traditional Paladins, they focus on defending themselves and their allies and have decent defensive magic capabilities. If Paladin has the Bait ability active and uses Avenge after a number of turns, they can increase their overall strength greatly.

The crown is proficient with swords and spears, which makes them powerful damage dealers. The crown has the highest HP growth and the job class armor, Paladin Armor, provides a 20% boost in HP.
