DPS/Tank build

[Orpheus148 0]

Hey, I'm looking for a Tank and DPS build that will work while I level my paladin up. I was hoping to get Consecration but I can't get far enough down Retribution to get Vengeance.

This is what I'm working with. http://db.vanillagaming.org/?talent#sE0zZV0xIZEb0t

You can't do a tank/dps mix build.

^^^
You can tank/Reckoning pvp build, but tank DPS specs are not really viable due to how good the first few talents in holy tree are and how required vengeance is.

You are better with a Holy/Prot spec if are are looking to fill 2 roles

If you want a nice PvP dps build, with some tanking aspects, plus your aoe, try this. You can modify points wherever you like ofc, but it's mostly around PvP:

if you want aoe+Veng:

please note: you loose the tanking aspect, and you can always switch around points, but again this was built on PvP.

 

my original build from old PvP on feenic was different, but I did use it to tank 5 mans with no issues. (Full deathbone set):

the Tri-hybrid build has its fair uses, the problem was it was a jack of all trades, master of none.

Can you please suggest a hybrid Holy/Prot build to level 1-60? Starting from holy tree or prot, etc etc? (I think holy/prot is also a viable choice to survive in the inevitable world pvp while leveling...am i wrong?)

[Drehar 2]

Hmm 1-60 there is going to be a deadzone in there for a few levels. If you are a solo player you should level to 60 as ret.
I only recommend going prot if you have a healer friend.

At level 34 you can go 5/5 Reckoning in the prot tree. So I would start with Ret until 34 AT LEAST. Reckoning is the king pvp skill of revenge.

I just recently hit 60 (Yesterday) And there have been a TON of times where some one would gank me. I go back loot my shame and run away. Find a mob to sit in front of get 5x Reckoning stacks. Go find the guy who killed me or my friend and DESTROY them.

I'm planning on using this 11/40/0 spec to carry me all the way to 60.

Your mileage may vary, of course.

I'm a solo player for now, but i'd like to do as many istance as i can during the leveling phase....also a Holy (31 points minimum) build, is viable while lvling?

[Drehar 2]

As a paladin you don't need 31 points in holy to heal dungeons and groups. Holy Shock is only really useful in PVP for fast heals or ranged damage. 5% crit and illumination are nice but at low levels crit just isn't available for you on gear. You can tank well enough as ret to get you to 34 before going prot for reckoning (PVP) skill.
