I've never made a Paragon character.
Tell me at least two things about Paragons that would easily want me to make one right now.
Reason To Be A Paragon

I think they are the coolest looking character, but I've never made one myself.

Quoted. For. Truth.
I've played for the best part of 32 months primarily as a Warrior toon for the purpose of title collecting. About a month ago i finally decided to muck around with a Para and if i had my time over again, i'd go Paragon without hesitation.
It's bloody hard to kill yourself or your team as a Paragon, at least in NM. Every area of the game that i had problems with as a Warrior has been a cakewalk with the Para. Some of that comes down to more experience and running better bars, but nothing compares to the party support power of SY and TNTF.

The whole concept of the paragon is cool.

Save yourself the time and energy. It's not worth it. Go make a Dervish instead.

I was a monk primary, then I started playing my paragon. 'Nuff said.

paragons are more useful

They have some nice looks, skins and animations. They can be a really good support character as well dmg with spears. But since mine died on surivor rank 2 i never used it again...

TNTF and decent damage.
GFTE+TNTF=Lots of infinate energy, and with a good spear, lots of adrenline.

Sab's necro hero build with a def. buff paragon makes PVE and PVE hard mode seem like you are taking a hot spear through butter.

How about the best passive defence in the game with warrior comparable offence at range?
Not to mention a team of 8 paragons is > pretty much anything.

If they do that - but leave Ursan untouched i would fwap lots of rant emails at anet's face.
"SY!" and "TNTF!" are reason enough.

You forgot Voltaic Spears / Demoncrest Spears / Greater Guardian Spears etc
and the fact that you won't hold it upside down

Possibly the best energy management in the game as long as allies are alive and around.
We need helmets.

This post. Really, this is the obvious answer to your question.

Paragon is a big I WIN-button in pve.

Paragons are better at PvE than every other profession combined

Well i hated paragon to at the beginning now i even got one with obsidian armor
I did gate of madness without monks only para's and guess what none died so
than i went with a monk and 5/8 died
and i used same henchies / heroes only
instead of 2 paragon heroes and myself 2 hero monks fully equiped so this is the
reason why you want to be a paragon

I like the fact you can do damage and still be a party support, as I never wanted to be a monk but did want to be usefull, party support was the thing for me to roll!

Being the most overpowered and broken class in the entire game.
There, I only needed to tell you 1 thing.

What you mean with "broken"? Did he break his spear or something?
Just try to combine a nice damage / support monk build... than you see
monks are not powered... and i don't mean 55hp monk... LOL

I think that the overpower is balanced by the fact that you cannot solo or farm with your paragon. Other than simple holiday solo farming or using the /rt build to farm destroyer cores you are left farming with a differnent character.
The best thing I think about my paragon is that with heroes I am not dependant on finding a PUG. Most missions can be accomplished (masters/bonus) with the right heroes and builds with a good paragon build. And for the record I have not unlocked SY yet, I do however have max Sunspear and TnTF. With my para shouting and a good hero team like the all Necro Sab build, I have very little problems with anything including Hard mode vanquishing.

1. You needed a reason to buy FoW armor.
2. You needed a reasont to buy a Voltaic Spear and Tormented Shield.
Bonus
3. You were reaching full capacity of Gold you could hold on your account, and you didnt know what to do besides buy stacks of Ecto.

3 things why to be a Paragon.
1. Funnest Class ever and one of the balance class I have ever seen, They are up there with Warriors. Skills are so cool, just need 2 sets of armor then you can go all out Commandier or if you want use one set for All out Moviationier healer/protector for the party and they have alot of useful elites. This i might be wrong correct me if im wrong, they gain hp and energy for each Shout and Chant goes away.
2. They can keep a party live with no skills at. Their Skills party orinated.
3. The Man Skirts ya got love those Man Skirts or Skirts on the Girls.

If you like looking at guy-leg, then the Paragon is the profession for you!
Seriously though, they are a good mix of team support, healing, buffs, and offense. You can take the hits, dish them out, all the while aiding your team significantly.
Oh, and you gotta like white, cuz pretty much all their armor is white.
