Just saying that AP necro have the ability to flee/sleep (okay this tactic might not work all the time - but it's a tactic.) Plus they can drain that vital mana with plague/energy drain. I'm not saying this is easy to do against a competent paladin with divine saves - but its possible to do mostly at middling ranks, especially pre-sanc.
I suppose pre-paladin sanc, perma lagging bash-spec warriors might fall into the category of 'things that can kill paladins solo' (though shield ded obviously get defense against this) and maybe cheap-shot thieves (though this is easily prepped against.)
I'm not saying I haven't killed paladins in the midbie ranks solo, pre-sanc, with classes other than the above.. but I tend to end up fleeing a hell of a lot more than I end up killing. Plus I have a feeling that these paladins don't fall into the category of 'competent' even though they all tend to have pretty good paladinly rp.
I still ****ing hate wrath.
