I just wish they'd give them a different weapon type than we've seen before. Holy Avenger swords are "The Paladin" weapon, and the image showed him holding a mace, so one of those seems most likely, but we've had NO PCs with spears yet, or axes for that matter. I'd love to see a class that was spear and shield, and maybe had some kind of mounted combat thing; maybe an Daily power that you trigger while still on horseback where you charge in & deal a bunch of extra damage in one hit before retreating behind your shield on foot.
I know it's too late for the Oathbound Paladin, it's just something that would have been cool & different. Oh well.

That would necessitate a complete rework of the mount system. Zero chance of that anywhere in the near future. As far as axes and the like go, there are axes in the game that you can reskin your weapon to if you feel so inclined. Personally, I would have anticipated the more classic hammer for the Paladin.

You can get Spears for GF's through Transmutes.
All Melee Classes (except possibly TR's) get Axes as Transmutes. The HR Melee Weapon is USUALLY a matched pair of Axes.
Some DC Powers take the form of a Spear.

They did mention that there are other options, of which sword would be one but they did also mention transmutes.... should be maces, axes and swords, but some you'd have to transmute to get.
There are at least 2 TR axe transmutes. The ones I got dropped off the low level spellscarred.
Forgot about those!
Don't you get an Ork Axe at one point, too?
Been a while.

I'm all for the Mace.
And I'll get a freebie Cleric.
When he says "Could you fight with a big stick?"
I'll chat softly "Why yes. Yes I can in fact."
Neverwinter Paladins: Speaking softly and carrying a big stick since Mod 6.
