While the Savior type Armour was quite effective at it's job, it also took quite heavy damage, and needed heavy repairs or complete replacement after every battle. This took too heavy a toll on already thin terran resources, so a new Armour type was devised, one that was more survivable and could be used repeatedly in heavy battle without need of replacement. As with many other Armour systems, it has it's weak spots, but it's strong parts can take quite a bit more damage than any other Armour currently in use.
Its Duratanium construction makes it stronger than armor types as its material is a strong, lightweight alloy usually only used for starships. Though building the armor out of such materials costs more in the short-term, it saves resources in the long-term.
As with later models of the Savior, the Paladin has Cybernetic/hydraulic enhancements, Making the weight be less of a burden on the user, and enhancing their own strength and agility.
