Paladin?

[NightAvenger]

I've gotten to the point where i've been able to fully unlock the wisdom and stamina tree along with the paladin node. I went to the shop and saw the pally shield for 5k gold... Got that... But then couldn't equip to to anyone? My dwarves were level 22, but i was unable to equip it. Someone able to explain how I do?

Your dwarves need 'growth' to equip the advanced class items. In the case of the paladin they need 10 Wisdom and 10 Stamina in growth. You can get growth by levelling them and/or use certain Artifacts.
E.g.: You can level a dwarf 10 times as knight (+10 STA) and 10 times as Priest (+10 WIS). So in theory you would have a paladin at level 21. You could also use a 'Ring of Restoration' on a priest which gives +1 STA on level up. In that case your dwarf would reach the required growth for paladin already at level 11.

When you hover over a dwarf with the paladin shield, it should tell you how much growth you are missing in red.

Thank you for that explanation. I didnt realize that each class chosen would help level specific attributes. I appreciate it.
