+108% threat generated by holy attacks
5500 armor
24 damage to all enemies in the area with Consecration
+30% block chance after I get criticalled against
+631 armor bonus from devotion aura
+30% damage reduction bonus from shield
+5% Parry
+10% defense bonus from equipped items
+10% all stats from Blessing Of Kings
+10 Defense
Lay on Hands for Full health, 250 mana and a Huge bonus to defense bonus from equipped items (I think 30%, but I have to look to be sure)

This isn't counting equipped item bonuses

... All the tanking bonuses I get as a 42 Paladin under my own power... Better than any warrior of the same level I've met... Yet warriors are supposed to be better tankers?

Bring it to Molten Core when it hits 60. Paladins aren't used for DPS much, mainly blessings, healing and cleanse. If you said: I can tank.... they would laugh at you

At 60 it's a whole different story

I'll keep that in mind

Metrosh because I'm not a monkey to misguided paladins i'll explain why you can't tank as efficiently as warriors.

Static hate values vs Damage hate
Warriors have an ability called "Sunder Armor" which increases their hate by massive amounts, this is a SET value meaning that no matter how much dmg it increases all the same, the only way paladins could keep up with ONE sunder (they stack 5 times.) is if they were in all out dps gear in which case the warrior sunders again and all the pallies aggro is gone.

Paladins have some of the lowest overall dps in the game, and their aggro holding abilities are based on damage not static values, also paladins don't have "snap aggro" meaning they can't taunt anything, so once the mob gets pulled it's gone.

warriors have massive amounts of damage mitigation due to might/wrath/dreadnaught. Once your defense skill hits around 430 (doable) you can't be crit anymore. Paladins dont have a snowball's chance in hell to ever hit this and warriors can only do it with full out Naxx loot.

as for using BoK as a reason to tank, thats a castable spell, everyone in your raid will have it.

Warriors also have no way of dumping aggro or losing it, therefore if you use a paladin to tank you'll end up nerfing down your raids DPS simply because the warriors will have to go VERY light on the damage. This isnt good as most end-game encounters have a maximum time limit meaning you'll need to go balls-to-the-wall DPS, something paladins will NEVER be able to hold aggro through.

Heres a good example of why damage aggro is bad.

For simplicity sake we'll say 1pt of dmg==1 point of hate
paladins hit for 600, with 108% threat increase giving you 648 hate, a mage pyroblasts the same target for 2800 (this is a low pyro too, by end-game standards)

That mage just instantly pulled with their opener and because you have no taunt the mob is now loose and attacking the raid, you'd have to do another 2300 damage or so just to get it back assuming NOBODY else in the guild was even attacking.

So hope this helps

Ah, thank you Dae..

Seems like the only thing I have to look forward to end-game is raid blessings?

Don't feel Sad Metrosh, shamans arent any better. End-game they also become healbots, for the most part. Anything outside of that, there dropping totems, or there reincarnating because of some wipe lol.

"We haven't done anything yet, but we have slept together twice "

Uhm...does that inquire you slept in the same bed or you hit it? Cause 99% of the time 'sleeping together' is just another way of hitting it. You make no sense -.-

no joke world of warcraft has nice women playing, I met 4 irl. Not all at once though. But it's nice to know that i've got more of an option other than the chick down the bakery and some random chick at the pub.
