Paladin hardcore build - road to 60 - need advice

Hello everyone,

since I died on my hunter at lvl 23, my priest at lvl 31 and my warrior at lvl 34 - I now want to start as a paladin to finally reach lvl 60 without dying.

I have two questions for the advanced players who know a lot about paladin.

  1. What do you say to this build?

My tactics are to be a 2-hand dps while questing and doing dungeons, while being able to tank low lvl dungeons with 1-hand + shield. Also when I am fighting multiple mobs or elite-mobs, I would like to swtich to 1 hand + shield to always be able to keep my mana up with the 5 second rule and win the long fights over time.

I really want to be as effective as possible while performing dps and tanking (low lvl) + having the most survivabilty as possible.
An all in one spec with the downsides of not being perfect in any demand - but good enough for everything.

The stats on my gear would be equally divided between strength and intelligence + as much stamina as I can get.
My professions will be mining + engineering.

  1. Would you do somethind different?

Thanks in advance! :slight_smile:

that´s pretty griefy. Paladins in vanilla are not really suited to tank, unless your party/raid knows exactly what to do, which the majority of low level dungeons groups wont.

Seems I was incredibly lucky to find random groups in which all players “knew exactly what to do”.
