Best AA?

[ronboga]

<DIV>Just started to play a paladin and would like to know what would be the best aa's to get for a solo paladin?</DIV>

[holypaladin28]

<DIV>for PVP or PVE</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>because the STA line is best for PVP we get that great AOE knockback (which i used in KOS and sent someone 6 lvls higher flying)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>and then we also get divine aura which is a great spell for when you in a group PVP </DIV>

<DIV>If i was you i would go like this</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Int 4-4-8-8</DIV> <DIV>Sta 4-4-8-8</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>this is only if you solo alot .. i would max your dps and hp, oh and 62% to heal/wards crit is nice when your trying to solo </DIV>

<P>All depends on how you play. If you want to TANK better, I suggest going down the WIS and STR lines. Thats what I did with my pally and I rarely loose aggro. If you want to DPS more, you can go down the INT line. Some like the STA line, but melee crits aren't really anything to brag about...and if you max your HP option out...it only raises your HP 4%. Big whoop de doo. I have 7200 HP normally, 4% more is only around an additional 280 HP....who cares. Give me the hate gain STR line gives and the 40% self haste I can get using an axe...and I am gtg.</P> <P>Some posters posted about doing crit heals/wards...if you focus solely on healing when fighting we can't do HALF the healing a real healing class can do. Also keep in mind crits only add about 25% to the total amount...so its not like you'll get a crit heal ward for 2800 HP. Personally...I think SK's and Pallies should benefit from having more WIS and ministration like healers do (their heals will heal for more), but hey...what do I know.</P> <P>I also completed the end result of the STR line and got casting and recast timers reduced by 12%...pretty nice having my celestrial touch spell now on a 13 min recast and big self heal on a 4 min recast. Also reduced sigil down to 1 min 40 secs recast.</P> <P>hmm I went Str 4/4/4/5/8 and Wis 4/4/4/4/8</P>

<DIV>I am going to try 3 lines since dont care that much for alot of the later AA we get. Right now going 4/4/8 Int, 4,4,2 Wis Plan on finishing out 1 in starter 4/4/8 Int, 4/4/8 Wis, 4/5/8 Str. I skip the heals in int line because other than my group heal I hardly ever have time to target someone in group and retarget mob and that cuts down on dps since usually everyones assisting on me. Skipping the heal regen in Wis line because one group heal does just as much each min and the 8 into third will greatly deccrease fizzle and miss rates for me and group have asked several pallies and all claim it makes huge diff but most pass on extra pts in it cause they go for the fearless at end and need pts, and Str line will give me haste bonus and if got a ax its even better, maybe if the revamp the AA enough with EoF then might be better going farther down a line but right now I think this give me best AA for group and as offtank or MA for raids.</DIV>

<DIV>DPS Wise:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>STR: 4/4/8</DIV> <DIV>STA: 4/4/8</DIV> <DIV>INT: 4/4/8/1</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>TANK Wise:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>WIS: 4/4/4/4/8</DIV> <DIV>STR: 4/4/8/8 or STA: 4/4/4/5/8 (Haste/Hate gain or HP and Divine Aura)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<P>I get so frustrated with our AAs.....yes there is defenitly a "best" line for DPS route and a "best" line for tanking.  What gets me frustrated is I tank in groups and play a dps role in raids so it would be great if you could change your AA lines on the fly.</P> <P>Right now what I have done is;</P> <P>WIS 4/4/4/8 (the final WIS AA is just pointless, I have been feared less than 10 times in my whole career)</P> <P>STA 4/4/4/3</P> <P>STR 3/</P> <P>With the remaining 11 points I am going to spend into STR line.  Once I get all 50 points I will probably change again and break up the points to get the best I can out of the INT, WIS, STA and STR lines and play with that for awhile.</P>
