I've been playing a fire mage and arms warrior for a while now but I've been thinking going back to my roots as a ret paladin. I've recently acquired 65 coins from the sale of some characters and have been thinking about leveling a paladin to 80 or possibly buy one from trade. What would the best items be to invest in.. if need to be I can probably add another 10-20 coins in to round it off.
I primarily PVP but am open to do some basic PVE to gear.
It kinda depends how you want to go about it yourself..
85 coins can get you 3 BiS items, dual proffs and talents and some BoE's on top on a character from trade section. There's not many of those around at that price range, so if you're looking for specific set of items, you might have to look for a while.
On the other hand, 85 would get you 3 BiS items, 4 if you have lingering discount codes available. The character would be originally yours and would require hefty amount of time, or in-game gold, investment to get to state where some characters are in trade section.
