Old topic, but yeah, so like LP doesn't prevent Gospel from removing Strip status, it just prevents the animation from casting. You can still cancel Strip by hitting your Gospel key regardless of where you are.
If there are any Profs out there that think that their class is a great match-up for Paladins in the current PvP scene, just PM me/post here and we'll spar. I'd like to see if you're doing something that other Profs aren't, and also try out some strategies against you too. I'm fine with posting results as well as the way they were achieved, so that this thread isn't just about theory fighting, but actual gameplay experience too. Feel free to borrow equipment if you don't think you have top tier gears.
