5 man team question

[nodoze]

Thanks for the response. I have been out with my 5 man team and so far I am agreeing. My priest has yet to run out of mana, I am using him to shield mostly and drop heals when needed, i haven't had to sit down and rest once in the last hour. I see no need at this point to bother with my mages. I am currently running the paladin as retribution, but I may switch him to healing once I get my guys up in levels abit.

That all sounds like a good start and consistent with what I saw.

A few points you may want to consider:

• - You may want to avoid shielding the Warriors as they generate Rage from being hit for damage (you gotta let Hulk get mad so he smashes better);
• - Respecing is costly so make sure you get what you need up front if possible. There is a single paladin spec which makes for a solid healer and a decent PVE dungeon Tank (but not ret). I screwed up one of my Paladin specs already and it cost me a gold just to change it (and the cost goes up each change made during a certain period of time).

Edit: Regarding Paladin specs I think you need at bare minimum most of the following 20 points in Holy to have strong healing output as Paladin and an example spec that will take you till ~ level 30 is follows:

There is some flexibility in there as some people like 'Improved Lay on Hands', some like 'Improved Seal of Righteousness', & some like 'Unyielding Faith' (I like that for PVP) though none of that is game changing.

My recommendation would be to put your first 20 points there and lock in great uninterrupted healing at 30 before branching elsewhere (either more prot or more ret).

When fully fleshed out the following is the single Paladin spec for both Dungeon Tanking and decent healing (likely swapping some gear though) that was given to me:

Personally I would at least move the point from 'Improved Seal of Righteousness' to 'Unyielding Faith' but overall I don't think it changes how the build is played that much.

Best of luck.
