Hey ya guys! I am starting a pallie team to twink out for lvl 19 WSG, one FC, one heals. Has anyone tried this before? I think it's do-able, I'll post vids/pics once it's fully up and running
I have also started a dual shammie team and may incorporate both at a later date.

Thanks in advance :D

Dual melee is harder, because follow breaks once melee starts.
If your slave toon is pretty much a full time healer and not a combatant, you won't have this issue so much.

Both toons will wear mail armor at this stage, which is good durability; your healer will probably go weapon + shield for added defense.
The paladin is an excellent single target healer.
In the 19's bracket, its generally rogues and hunters who are the twinks. Not sure how a twinked pally would do.

The paladin as a healer lacks ranged attacks, which won't give you as much support dps as another healer type.
At least not until they're both in melee, but at that point follow breaks which makes mobility an issue if the battle moves.

If you want to make it work, it will work.
Generally only one melee is easier.

So far (no WSG yet, still leveling) and have relatively few issues. The most glaring of course is the follow break. However, I just DLd Jamba and will switch to Follow strobe while leveling and in WSG, switch back to follow Sob(who will be my prot FC)

Once I hit the 49 or 59, may make both Ret for the lulz.

30+ will be AoE grinding as prot with both.

SO far I've played dual feral druids to 42, and dual rogues to 23, and I really cant see how melee-boxing is hard, I have found it to be very easy with a simply follow/focus macro, and jamba. If anything melee levels faster than range due to no downtime with mana :)
