Most fun Ive had in a while.

I doubt they'll make any changes to IWT. I think the power of the paladin team (or paladin + dk), is the ability to heal viably while being DPS specced.

With the intended changes to healing and healthpools in Cataclysm, I think (sadly) that teams like this, depending on doing healing while being DPS specced, will be less useful with the arrival of the expansion. So even if devs think it should be changed, it's unlikely they will, since the "problem" will probably solve itself in Cata.

Absolutely, plate no longer having a +10-15k health advantage on avg over cloth//leather/mail wearers will be nice for a change. Although I will enjoy it for the time being. ;p

I blame Ellay for the ToW change and the overabundance of aoe dps and aoe knockbacks in wotlk.

If you're at 68, head to NR and grab some of the quest gear (ilvl 138) - more than likely, it will be a significant upgrade from anything your wearing now.

Check out this list.

I just got my pallies to 80 2 days ago (had 80 dk and pally tank already so 3 new toons). It's fun for sure, but damn these guys get mowed in pvp lol. There's a lot of new 80 pain with 3 toons only haveing 14k health and zero resil. I'm gonna have to go farm some pve gear so i can pvp lol!
i did do my 10 arena matches but being in greens and blues i went 0-10. it was kinda late and 70% of the teams were 1650+ rating compared to my 1100 and had 251+ weaps from icc10 and 1800+ 2v2 arena teams.

Gear is going to be exponentially better I think with this team. Better gear= more crits and more instant FoL that hit for much harder + more healing from higher divine storm shots and less damage due to resil.
time to farm Garfrost! (many pants, still clean, save boss... great shame...)

Edit** man fear bombs are nasty, it's AMAZING how far a toon can run in 10 seconds if your trinket is down... or you don't have one yet lol! I'm thinking of doing a round robin on trinket and basiclly have 2 pallies trinket and cleans the rest of the team. how do you guys handle those nasty bg fear bombs?

Not to be Debbie Downer, but wait until you go into the next bracket....yeah....not so much fun. AV for me from 71-77 was mainly running straight to the GY near Drek, and capping the towers. However, it isn't until about 77 that are you are really even useful at doing that. Even at 79 I had much trouble tanking Drek without a decent healer, his WW's will also destroy your Rets, and they cannot heal fast enough.

Usually on fear bombs I use my human racial, or bubble, whichever is up first. But most of the time your alts will wind up being feared into some ridiculous place that not even Interact With Target will find it's way out of.
