Few things,
First on a human the armor is a Deep blue, some would say Royal blue or midnight Blue, purdy color.
second Valorium drops here, rarely true but it can, from the haunted chests if I remember,these can have Hate or Fear armor drops in them
Third Yeah the Righteous is rare but I have heard that more mobs now drop this, how true this is i cant say yet
Fourth I'm a 51 Paladin and i know a few SK's, we work well together because we can do different things, I buff a bit heal a bit and can stun taunt and throw a few DD's. My SK friends can deal more damage with the spells they have and FD when pulling, we are different, I can't say one class is better than the other because of that, do you compare a cleric to a shaman or chanter to a wizzard? nope, each class has it's area of expertise if you will.
