Even though you can heal, don't forget you are a buffbot. There is a reason horde got paladins in TBC.

MT and OT Should get this addon.

Instances, Battlegrounds, Party etc.
If you never played a paladin in early vanilla, this might not be familiar too you. But no further ado i introduce you to the old school method of 1 click whisper casting. As a paladin you want to use the addon whispercast, and configure it for lesser blessings and make sure people you play with know you are using it.

All your buddies should get an addon called BuffMePal.
This is a keybinding solution for asking for buffs without having to manually write a whisper to ask for it. You simply set the source to get the specific blessing from, and ask for it with the press of a button.
