thanks for the grats and sorry for the lack of info on the team, but no, only the slaves are Ret, main is Prot, for both instances and questing. don't even have enough gold yet to invest in dual spec on him. not sure if i'll even do that till i hit 80 with them and focus more on pvp and arenas. I now have HoJ on the Q button there on the first row on all toons and have Q set to round robin. much easier to manage that way.
