How did Paladins stop Jumpers before invention of electricity?


Ridiculous claim that Paladins had been hunting Jumpers for thousands of years when the means of stopping a Jumper (a stun gun) would have been around for less than a hundred.

I guess they had to be very accurate with whatever the most modern deadly weapon was. Before guns, they had to have been expert bowmen or swordsmen. Maybe force them into some kind of spike trap like you see in jungle adventures.

I would have liked to see more of a background on the Paladins at least in some of the dialog. Like how did they discover jumpers in the first place?

Jumpers can only jump to places they know. Before the invention of electricity people couldn't travel that far, so I guess it was easier to find them (they had to be sneaky though)
