Should i level up a fresh pair of paladins ( rets ) or DKs for pvp arena?

[Negativ1337]

Good morning,

I've been leveling my monks to 60 the last week. They are okay, but i never use fists of fury which is one of the core abilities of a monk, and i don't like the mobility that much. Also that incapacitate they got is a joke ( melee range, good luck with that ).

I've heard rets are doing quite well lately and paladins has always been a class i would love to level up for PvP. But i don't want to go shockadin/spellpower, since i don't like that playstyle.

Also you need to cast Excorcism on proc right? How do you guys deal with that?

I've was playing DKs last expension, so i kind off want something new.

I really want to make my rets human for the great racial ( 2 trinkets ). Anyone knows if this racial is going to be removed/changed in a later state?

Kind regards,

I can't speak to PvP, but ret is certainly easier to macro than it used to be. Exorcism no longer has a cast time, that was replaced with a 15s cooldown. The proc portion resets the cooldown, so I just use a priority system and let it cast whenever it's up.

Woah sounds good

Leveling rets now!

Rets will rely on 5 dps teams unlike dks. Thats the main difference.
