Lead is the ability by which a Paladin inspires those around him to greater deeds in battle.
Usage
A paladin automatically gains the ability to lead at second circle, and it's utilized via the LEAD command. Lead grants everyone in the group the Paladin is leading a sizable bonus to their offensive and defensive skills. The amount of the bonus is based on the Paladin's circle, soul state, charisma, and the size of the group being lead (with a larger group providing a bigger bonus). The Marshal Order spell will also boost the bonus Lead provides.
While those joined to the Paladin when he first leads receive the biggest bonus, a player can join the group after the lead begins and get a bonus that is a little lower than if they had been in the group at the start of a Lead if they stay in the group long enough.
