[How-to] 5x Paladins Disscusion

[Tdog]

Hey all

I have read this long thread quite carefully, and got many infos to help me build up my own pally team. Sorry to do a bit of archeology but I prefered to ask here than create a new thread.

I'd be grateful if you could shed some light on two topics :

Seals
I wondered which seal to use on my pallies. There seems to have been a debate from the post done by Tdog between keeping SoComm or switching to SoV. I read Stealthy's post saying SoComm is bad, but there seems to have been new changes to it inbetween (if I got i right)

Also, is SoL useful for the tank ou should another one be used (SoR as mentioned by tdog ?)

Replacement
I am quite confortable to have a pally tank, so I don't intend to change it. I had however the temptation to switch one of the retrib pallies for another spec/class. Could you comment on the two following choices ?

• Holy Pally, to make it a dedicated healer ? (doesn't seem to be quite common in the 5-pally setup)
• A DPS DK (for the 13%), instead of a 4th pally who cast a blessing, but you seem to lose quite some life savers (healing, HoL, bubble, ...)

I want melee/mobility and plate. I'm not too kind in having to handle a fixed and more fragile DPS, which ruled out the shaman

Thanks for any clue you might provide.

Cheers,
Nyth

Pretty much what Stealthy said. Keep in mind I originally started this thread prior to some rather large paladin changes. I've had to take a 4 month break from WoW unfortunately and haven't been able to update the thread. However here in about 2 weeks when my computer is shipped over to the UK I'll be back in action and working on this thread again Although there has already been quite a good bit of discussion concerning 5x Paladins teams, I still have much more I would like to share and I look forward to working with all of you continuing into Cataclysm

many thanks for all your answers ! I'm still in the process of levelling my toons at the moment (only 31), but really enjoy it so far and I've only started to get the skills (rotation is still pretty basic to be honest :-)

Instances are no big deal at the moment, although I've encountered some AOE bosses which can be nasty. I believe at high level I will need to improve my moves as I feel I'm still to static at the moment, pretty much applying a "tank & spank" posture.

Thanks for the tips anyway, much appreciated

Yea definitely get use to being able to attack while on the move. That's one of the bigger advantages of an all melee team, being able to do 100% dps potential while never stopping. It takes practice of course to be actually putting out 100% dps while on the move and in addition not getting your teams butt kicked in the process.
