Don't give up on the ret pally idea too soon

http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread....73950732&sid=1

I'll most likely do that. Fights I've seen/done so far I really regret the dps I'm losing (My MT is the DK). He ots very little really and since he has very good tanking gear I really believe the raid will profit from it. Kings is also coming as default to all Paladins in 3.1. I'm really inclined to do so for next week raids. This week I'm trying to down some new bosses and confirm the others.
This thread on the wow forums is about ret as a second tank, not ret as a main tank. I assumed that the ret pala would be the mt for the poster. Imo ret should be able to ot most stuff fine, however I'd rather have the ret mt patch (hs tank gets hit a lot more) and perhaps kel adds might get interesting.

kind regards

Bigfish: The only way yer gonna be able to get away with going ret with the pali is if he's already overgeared or just off tanking.
There just to many nice abilities in the prot tree that helps with surviving.

Think yeh would be better off having 2 dedicated healers untill yeh have what ever yer running on farm.
Also think setting em up as offhealers that dps and they will go oom to fast.
