I dinged 70 pally the other day on Venekor. So I guess I can speak a bit on the Pvp Aspect. I can effectively solo necros. Hands down when they were orange I was killing them and now even reliced out necros I can win against. Yes we are not the most effective class for solo PvP but as stated before divine resists are overlooked. Toss out that group taunt on anyone (mines master 2) take out 1k of the targets divine resits (or encounter) and boom you gave yourself a chance at winning. The biggest thing I see in pally PvP is the spamming of our skills. Waste of effort really, the key is to space out our kicks and interupts and wait for the right time. We have a decent selection of stuns and interupts, why not use them. Now I dont find a ton of solo fights, most of the times ifa scout doesnt get a good opening shot on me they evac, so I cant tell. Groups is where I feel at home. I dont try to do damage that isnt my job. I spam taunts (maybe turning on consecrate) and heal/ward myself and the group to help the healers(this is assuming it is a fair fight). Let the DPS classes kill. Its been stated before we are a tank with heals. We gave up DPS for the ability to heal. Does it suck to not be able to kill all that well solo? Yes, so if you dont like it betray or reroll. My group since I was a tiny pally has consisted of normally 2 pallies, have we proved the theory(well some people say this at least) that pallies are useless for PvP. Yes Liluk and I have. Its always fun being that helpless pally in the freeps eyes and then being able to spank them.
