I plan on keeping 3 gear sets, for DPS, Tank and Heals.
When I am solo, I rather like the Ret-style play (I've yet to try Prot, I'm going to wait until I get some key things, like SSO items, Cobalt set, etc at Lv70), but for soloing grey instances, I'm wondering..
Would Prot be better than Ret, due to increased survivability? Or is Ret better, due to how much faster you can kill stuff?
I planned to start out with easy crap (ST, Scholo, etc) and slowly move my way up, to see just how high a Lv80 paladin can solo (surely they can duo outlands stuff?). I've got a GF to bring along, she plays a Boomkin, I'm thinking that a Boomkin+Paladin could go quite far...
