While I agree, I also believe that boosting a pally up and using it as tank, will make most PvE encounters almost trivial compared to running with no tank.

The game is supposed to be enjoyable - and a paladin-tank will even let you chainlightning stuff down, once consecration has been ticking for a few seconds... aoe-aggro ftw

Considering making a few new paladins, just for the hell of it... unless some insane synergy exists between locks and deathknight, then I might go for that instead...

Time will tell
