That is only true when they are compared to Heroes and Dark Knights in KMST, and even there they aren't any weak (I believe they are even with DrK's though) However 1 - No one here knows yet if the damage of panic and coma is calculated the same way as it is right now which could turn out into heroes being weaker than what everyone expects, 2 - it's still in testing, it can be changed.
About the idea of giving paladins a party skill that absorbs damage taken by his teammates, I think the skill's idea is great but giving it to a Paladin? i'm not sure. That would definitely make them into the best buffers in the game, and having the best buffs, the best defense and good damage doesn't sound balanced. Replace combat orders with this skill, and give combat orders to bishops (although it'd make more sense given to Heroes, [DrK = HB; Palis = Defense skill; Heroes = CO] but people might complain) and then I would agree
Giving heroes combat orders would make them just plain OP.
Paladins don't necessarily have "good" damage when compared to the other warriors and other pure damage classes. They're melee archmages, to be honest.
People only called them OP when they had access to a super strong Soul Driver that could be used in conjunction with charges. Now that that's been nerfed, they don't have much going for them in terms of damage.

And I thought DS as a party skill would work in the sense, that ALL party members would get the 5 hit block effect when it activates as well the weapon attack boost.
The attack boost should be for Paladins only because almost every class has an attack boosting skill and making the paladin's only attack boosting skill be a party skill wouldn't really be fair.
