AA questions!

[BiggiEQ2]

<p>So, the Paladin AA's seem very funky and most useful out of any toons I've rolled so far. Thing is, with all the usefulness I'm unsure where to start. Got 25 points so far and gone 4-6-8-4-2 in STR, the 10% reductions all round seems nice and the haste is great too. But then pre-70 that leaves me with either STA (which I think I'm gonna do) for melee crits and the rather nice, albeit situational end-of-the-line ability (sucky recast too), and INT for heal and spell crits.</p><p>Does that sound wise, leaving the heal and spell crits til post-70? Or is the STR line the one to leave til post-70? If it factors in, I'll be 99% duo'd up with a Templar.</p>

So is the search function broken? God I hope not otherwise I'd have to see all kinds of posts about AA. Oh wait....

I think it depends on what you want to do with it. I went down STA, STR, INT. I have found that Divine Aura comes in pretty handy in a long and close fight. In the Paladin tree i first took the Healing line and some of wrath because i was mostly duoing with a ranger but since i have taken Wrath and Hero because i mostly am forced to do things with a healer and am only doing minimal healing. Also, with the mirror it is easy to pick two set ups for the different situations that you will be in. Putting some points in the support line for the ward is also helpful.
