The Paladin is essentially just a slightly more damaging Carnifex with less ammo in the clip and reserve; their mechanics and accuracy are identical.

Its cost ranges from 200k-220k credits. Here's the full playlist: • Mass Effect 3 Target Practice Here's a link to my Live Fire complementary series: • Mass Effect 3 Live Fire
