The playstyle is just incredibly dull and unsatisfying to me. What do you Paladin players enjoy about the class the most in regards to raiding and PvP? For those who are still leveling up: What keeps you going?

The playstyles for all vanilla classes are dull. 1 or 2 buttons, yawn.

Paladin has so much potential and so many fun quirks that make it the most fun for me. Not to mention being the best PvP healer by miles.

I enjoy supporting my allies. Say what you will but a good paladin can turn the tide of most battles as a utility class. I can bop a clothy being ganked by a rogue/warrior/hunter or hit them with sacrifice to greatly diminish a dagger rogues/hunter/ fury warriors damage.

I can freedom a warrior/rogue to keep them moving so they can punch through enemies defense. I can become unCCable besides fear (which I have a talent to improve my resistance against, along with shadow resist aura and a small amount that stack thats on my gear) thanks to sacrifice by throwing it on all my allies.

Not to mention as I heal over the course of the battle and take damage, I can swap out a two hander to severely wound someone with a reck bomb so a warrior can execute and then back to my shield to continue to heal.

If im just drawing attention I can spin a node for 30 seconds by myself at any point in AB thanks to my bubble and seal of crusader+one handed wep to prevent others from capping it. Not to mention I never go OOm have wisdom, wisdom, wisdom and can effectively flag carry if I have speed items because once again I have freedom.

Unique - that's what keeps me going for 10 years playing Prot/Ret.

What do you Paladin players enjoy about the class the most in regards to raiding?

Maintanking all Bosses that exist in game seeing people O.O at you by telling you "you are what all paladins dream's about" .

Dpsing as Retribution and pwning all the metters on Overall fight and let the kids feel stupid of their previous anti paladin behavior .

What do you Paladin players enjoy about the class the most in regards to PvP?

Crushing Rogue Teeth on duels and during gank. Watching them self killed .

Tanking Alterac Valley last Boss using Greater Stoneshield Potion.

I started leveling a paladin here. He is level 32 right now. Then I started leveling mage and hunter because the pala leveling is so slow. However I think I will return to my paladin.

The thing is that almost all people are telling me that the paladin in only heal and I do not like healing at all. I have always been either dps or tank. I have to level this one to 60 and see how it is going.
