OK ive been playing a warrior for a little bit and i miss the ability to heal (I was a whm in FFXI) but i really dont like the way priest is made in WoW atm so ive been looking into hybrid classes.
I didnt like how druid had to shapeshift to be an effective hybrid i think i may get confused trying to flip forms if sh*t hits the fan. So then i looked at shammy and it seemed ok but not really what i was looking for because elemental spec is like leveling a mage without being a mage and i really am not a DPSer.
So this left paladin. I really like to tank and i want to main heal so it seems like a great class for me so i had a few questions before i begin.
Race: I really like how Draeni (i spelled it wrong didnt I) look because im not big on any of the other races on alliance and i dont like blood elves. Also since im planning on being a main healer pally their racials work very well for a supporting pally. Any real reason not to go Draeni?
I know im planning on going retribution till mid 30s when im planning on respecing to Prot to AoE grind. I also love to main heal so when will having a main healing set of gear not be enough?
Like when will i have to choose Prot to tank instances or Holy to heal instances?
Also can someone maybe show me where i should be before i respec for AoE grinding? so i know where to spend my points while i level up ret.
If anythings unclear please let me know so i can clarify.
Thank you
