Retribution Pally to Tank?

[Vyndree]

Ehh, the ret pally is nice, but it simply equates to more healing on your end. More healing, no Avenger's shield, way more damage taken, and less synergy between your paladin + other classes. If you have more than 5 characters, then spec one ret. :thumbup:

I dunno about less synergy... (at least with ele shammies)

The benefits pallies could give would be:
kings or wisdom, judgement of light/wis, imp devo (think treeform)/conc aura
And additionally, if respeccing holy: healing (for pvp)
And additionally, if respeccing ret: Heart of the Crusader (crit talent -- doesn't stack with ToW), Sanctified Retribution (2% damage), Divine Storm (heals), Swift Retribution (haste), Judgements of the Wise (replenishment)

Personally, I still go prot. Respeccing too often gets expensive, and prot does decent dps as well as tanking now.
