Preg Tanking? duel spec question
Hello my Pally brothers,
I'm loving my fresh level 80 Ret paladin and I'm gearing up for mythic dungeons at the moment and raids in the future.
However my off spec (protection) is not really doing much for me. When I try to AOE grind or even tank lower level content, I find i'm running out of resources and just generally not enjoying myself as much as when I'm in Ret spec. First I run out of mana and then I use divine plea but then I have trouble healing myself and the whole things ends up with my sitting down to eat and drink! That does not happen when I'm in Ret spec.
Therefore I prefer to slap on a tanking set with a fast 1 hander and shield and stay in Ret spec if I have to.
So that got me thinking that I'm not really getting any value out of my dual spec 1000g I spent...
What if I could run a Preg spec that was capable of PVP but also a little cheeky tanking. Maybe lower level content and maybe good AOE grinding and maybe even if I get the confidence to tank a dungeon or a mythic dungeon?
I maybe asking for too much but at a minimum I'd like to hear some suggestions for a useful off spec?
!. What do you recommend for me?
2. What do you do with your dual spec? and do you find your getting value out of it?
<shields self in preparation for the "learn to play comments"> I should mention I am open to hearing advice on protection paladin but thats not my core question here.
Cheers,
