Ultimate WoW GuidePicking a Profession

Since the Paladin is such a versatile class, you have a few different options on professions. Mining and Blacksmithing will be good for making gear though.

Leatherworking or skinning should be avoided if you choose simply because you really don’t have much need for them. However, if you are just looking for money making professions, the skinning, mining or herbalism professions can be a great professions to have.

The Skills of the Paladin

We’ve already mentioned briefly what Paladins can do in a group setting, but it is important to understand how each of these three abilities can be used. The Paladin is a vital class for any group to have simply because of these three abilities.

Tanking - Although a warrior is still the best at this I have seen some pretty good pally tanks. A Paladin can tank several enemies at once, with the use of special spells and skills, making them incredibly useful in a bad situation. This kind of support is vital as you get into the more difficult levels.

Healing - Paladins have the ability to heal themselves, members of their own group and other players. Typically a paladin will be better suited for off heals, as a Priest or Druid will normally be the better healer choice. This is a vital skill for the endgame, so pay special attention to the spells connected with this ability.

Damage - Due to their retribution tree, the Paladin is able to increase the amount of damage that they can inflict on their enemies. And if spec'd for it they can be great for mana restoration for the group. Again, this is a very important skill for the end game and can be mastered along the way.

Putting it Together

Putting all that a paladin can due together you can see why they are pretty versatile. They have some pretty nice abilities overall and can be very useful in groups or raids. You will also have that flexabilty of trying out the different roles. Although to be the best at one role you will want to stick with that.

The best way to see what will work for you is to start one and see what you like best. But I would say that if you are already conviced of a role you want to play you may want to look at the other classes first.

Overall, the Paladin is a class that is incredibly important to the way this game is played.
