[WoW] tank/healer Paladin

[ANG853]

Can a paladin be both a tank and a healer? I am thinking one paladin with 4 casters would be fun.

I know tank paladin/healer paladin/dps/dps/dps would work great but can a paladin
heal himself enough that a fourth dps can be added?

Thanks !

Depends on what your trying to do. I'm assuming you mean 5 man dungeons, in which case I don't think it would work too well. The paladin would run out of mana way to fast, and once you get cc'd you can't heal anyone, and it would be too easy to wipe.

Thanks. Yeah the best solution to the mana issue seems to have a priest who you let get the killshots

In Mythic+ dungeons, a pally tank can help out with healing a bit in a pinch, but go oom really quickly. Plus, while they are tanking they are getting hit so don't heal very efficiently. And frankly, they could probably keep their health up best by continuing their tanking rotation going (like keeping Shield of the Righteous up) rather than stopping that to heal.

Once every 10 mins they can heal pretty well - with Lay on Hands - but obviously that's nothing you can rely on with consistency. If you are going to run any kind of challenging content, your pally tank will need a separate healer.
