Greetings...
I am returning to the game after a short break. I have created and leveled a 53 BE Paladin with the Ret spec. My armory link follows with several questions:

(just in case its Ralianna on Garona server)

1. Looking at my armory, would you reccomend any changes for my build? I'm primary a solo player but I do like to be useful for instances with my few online friends!

2. At this level, should I be doing more damage or is this average for my build/level?

Constructive criticisms is greatly appreciated...!

Regards!

First glaring thing I see there is your weapon choice. The absolute best weapon you can use from 51-57 is the Ice Barbed Spear. All that it requires is that you win one AV match. You just need to get the quest beforehand. Follow that link and look up the quest and where to get it.

Remember, when choosing weapons, you want to get the slowest one possible. 3.6 or higher is ideal, with 3.4 being acceptable. Your current Frenzied Striker is much too fast for a Ret Paladin.

Don't get "Of the Eagle" stuff if you can avoid it. You don't really need the mana, and you will benefit more with "Of the Bear" stuff. You need more STR in your gear, that will also boost your overall damage even more than advertised.

So to sum up:
1. Get the Ice Barbed Spear, trust me you'll be thanking me afterwards. Only problem is winning the AV and Horde don't do as well there as they do in some of the other BGs.
2. Swap out that int in your gear for strength. You will kill things faster, thus leaving you less time to use mana.
