It won't be much longer until my paladin finally reaches level 70 and begins the arduous task of healing many, many instances for gear and rep. I was actually curious on the Communities' opinion on the Reputation PvP gear for those just starting out on the road to healing. Is the lack of Mp5 (or any other stats) going to harm me or would they be a good stepping stone on my way to getting more "proper" healing gear?
I'm also curious to know what the general opinion on PvP gear is in a healing position during PvE raids and instances. My Paladin class leader says that +Healing and a deep Mana-pool should come before everything else, but to the point where Mp5 and Spell-Crit are not sought after at all, more like an added bonus here and there. (I don't know very much about the class in a healing role, but this doesn't seem right to me)
In short:
-How does PvP gear fare in PvE situations?
-Is PvP gear a good way to begin healing in PvE?
