First Post!

Fairly new to boxing, 2 boxed for a long time but only recently got a 5 box setup, works well but still learning.

However I'm torn on what group makeup to go for, focus will be PvE, hopefully Heroics once the 3 new guys are high enough, with that in mind I'm going for the Tank, Healer, DPS / CC route, so for the 3 new characters I've made mages (currently all 3 are at level 29..getting there and thanks all the advice on these boards its taken me alot shorter time than I thought).

On my first account I have:

70 Protection warrior - Fully Kara / Badges geared (have to swap some gear out on heroics to prevent from going rage starved).

60 Protection Paladin - Gear is really dire, not played him in..well years.

And those are what I cant decide on, should I use the paladin or the warrior...warrior wouldnt require gearing so once the mages get to outland level he can tank, well, any instance without any problems but would require ALOT more management than the easy mode Paladin.

On my 2nd account I have a 70 priest with decent enough gear (+1000 healing) so makes sense to use him as the healer instead of starting another.

Anyone with first hand experience of this group makeup, or more specfic, with using a warrior as the tank instead of a paladin....thoughts?

At least level your pally to 70. Use your warrior whenever you want him, but as soon as we hit wotlk warriors gear will be outdated very soon. Im sure you will be happy when you dont have to level your pally from 60..
