I'm undecided right now. I plan to play paladin for nost release and into it probably a healing/buffing paladin. I assume that'll be my role at 60 in raids anyways. I know humans have a 5% spirit racial and dwarves don't really contribute to a holy paladin play style in anyway.
I'm curious how much of this sets dwarves back if at all? I didn't really play a paladin in vanilla so I'm not sure here. I'd like to be able to play dwarf, but if it's a substantial gain in performance playing a human, I will play one.
