View Full Version : Dual Boxing Paladin/Paladin vs Warrior/Paladin

To get a little break from my warlock/priest grinding I have been trying a warrior/paladin combo over the weekend in the classic melee/melee+heal style. It really felt -heavy- to play, if that is the right word to describe it. So, after reaching level 20, I decided to give a paladin/paladin combo a try, which seemed to be much more fluent to play. But, at the end of the road I will have two toons of the same class, which turns me of a bit.

I guess my question is, will the warrior/paladin combo be better in endgame pve and pvp than a prot/holy for pve and retr/holy or even retr/retr paladin combo for pvp? Does the advantage of a more -easy- play outweigh the opportunity to have two different classes that can be nicely used in solo play too?

Thank you for your time.

PS: I hope my babble is understandable, English is -not- my first language.

Does nobody has an opinion about this? I have both combos played to 25 now, both are fun, but I have never played a warrior up to endgame and have no idea how complicated it will get to tank compared to a paladin. The paladins have a great synergy as a duo with two auras and two Judgements for health and mana up. It is hard to make up my mind.

How often do you solo play?

If you plan on mainly solo playing the characters then I would suggest going with the warrior/ Paladin.
Then you could choose which role you fancied - healer, dps or tank.

If you plan to play with them together a lot then I would go for paladin/paladin.
Two retr paladins in PVP would own. You could fulfil any of the roles needed in instances.

Thank you Shaeman, I appreciate you took the time to answer.

Definitely playing them together for the majority of the time. I like to do all quests but the high level instance ones by myself. I choose Mining/Blacksmithing and Engineering/Jewelcrafting as the professions fro the duo to have access to crafted armor, weapons, gems and the engineering gimmicks like repair robot.

The longer I think about it the more I believe that the synergy of two paladins outweigh all other aspects.

Well, enough babbling and back to leveling. Thanks a bunch and happy boxing.
