When I first got the Paladin I didn’t like him at all since I didn’t have a high damage weapon for Red so he didn’t do much damage or much healing. Once you get a good weapon for Red, the Paladin is very useful especially when you also use the Princess. If you have Titan’s Wrath, then you’ll like using the Samurai a lot and I’d recommend getting the Bard first and the Paladin later when you become high level and can do a lot of damage.
Many people explained the devotion skill well, but forgot to mention that you will see Red move in front of the bird he is protecting so he is the shield which is why he takes the damage. Because of the Paladin’s devotion skill, his healing ability and the Princess’ ability to make all enemies target the bird with the highest health a skill called counter becomes very useful. Later on you’ll discover a couple of characters that can cast counter on Red. Counter enables a bird that is attacked to get a free counter attack. Red will be able to survive all enemies attacking him and do damage to all of them.
Another thing to keep in mind is that using counter on red and devotion on another bird enables red to counter attack when he gets attacked or the other bird gets attacked.
