There are only a few missions requiring dual reps if you hate warping out, just switch to megapulses for those.
But I would say yes golem is better then the paladin, but quite frankly I would rate the paladin as the second best marauder.

The nightmare only works well as a lasership because of CCP forgetting to nerf grid after giving it double laser bonus. Otherwise it would waste its lows on fitting mods insted dof damage mods.
Currently, nightmare outclasses paladin due to its nature, but to be perfectly honest the whole concept of tanking is broken in eve.
Some ships have tanking slots in the same row as damage slots. Some races have tanking slots in the same row as EW slots. So if you are PvE and thus not needing EW, just use a race that has tanking slots in ew slos, thus allowing you to use damage slots.
It is this very broken concept that is the main issue all along. Most space game have tanking as a set part of modifible ship layout. This prevents stuff like 3 bcu permatank ravens, which, lets be honest, outclass any turret pve'er simply because of the original concept of slot layout not being relevant anymore.
Most armor tankers can fit 3 damage mods, the main reason the raven is omgwtfpwn for PvE is because missiles never mis.

Why tank a ship that you can put enough DPS onto to clear rats before they shoot you much?
ever warped into the third stage of worlds collide and had the entire room of serpentise aggro you? a paladin wouldn't survive that.
Then switch to MP's with a dual rep setup for that mission?
There are like 2 or 3 missions where a single rep setup that runs out of cap after 3 minutes while using every module can't tank properly.

if you have to fit duel rep and mega pulse fit a large cap booster and fill hold with 800 charges you can then rep and shoot for a very long time
since when do you cap boost a mission ship? cap boosters are hard to transport and they're expensive.
when it comes to isk/hour, refitting your entire ship and running cap boosters is a waste.
fixing the broken ship would be a better method then finding one hundread and one ways to band aid it.
You're talking about isk/hour but don't take into account the far better cost efficiency of faction crystals over faction missiles?

To conclude this thread, the paladin is the most efficient turret based marauder.
That missiles are really effin good for PvE isn't something new.

Amarr has A LOT of ship classes in which we totally suck compared to other races (actually we have by far the fewest number of ships in the top 2 per ship class) but really the paladin isn't one of them.
The main reason for that is because it doesn't have a -50% cap use bonus but instead useful bonuses while having enough cap/second to actually use it's guns.
