You are right, it is wrong. Paladin has multiplier 5 like warrior,
othervise it is same as above, so for blows-calculation it goes like
this: Warrior and Paladin 5, Ranger 4, Rogue and Priest 3, Mage 2.
Should be Warrior and Paladin 5, Ranger and Rogue 4, Priest 3, Mage 2.

You are right about rework on table. It has too big emphasis on high STR.
