Strength is unequivally better than spellpower for threat, plus melee-type weapons irease HotR threat. The only good use for spellpower weaps is AoE pulls (or if you have one that's way higher ilvl thn your best available melee-type weap).

I totally agree. I have wow.allakhazamomdbitem?witem=29362;soue=live ehanted with Potey (+20 Strength) and I love it. Pre-3.0.2 this would have been horrible, but now it is an eellent tanking weapon for a Prot Paladin. Not a terribly expensive ehant either. I think I spent about 90g for the mats.
Yes. Divine Strength is a far greater talent than Kings. Satuary is a better tanking blessing, might is a better threat blessing.

However, for raids it's pretty safe to assume a Ret or Holy will have it, and for 5-mans Satuary is better anyway.
Hi all, great forum lots of good adve so far for me. Three of us are now playing WoW- I puppet a 34 Paladinurrently following aookieutter Ret build for leveling speed. Another friend of mine is using a Druid dressedtalented as a healer (an autofollow healbot)and a Rogue. Another friend has a mage he just started and is working hard to quklyah up oerning my build as the paladin, we were thinking it is up to me to tank what we go after- due to the ft that the person playing the two toons (DruidRog)an't phisally (in real life) be main tank while running damage from the rogue. Following a number of quides e. I was planning to talent toward Ret until 49- where I would then resp and go Prottion. I guess my question is, does my DPS and solo leveling ability fall off the table when I do this at 49? I would obviously still prefer to level and solo when I want to. For the most part the three of us (four toons in all) will be grouping together and looking for fun in PVE. I don't have the time nor the attitude that one day I am going to be MT for an uberguild or anything, but I would like to be able to stand in and take it on a small raid on a harder boss someday. (While still being able to level with my friends.) If anyone has the time for some adve spif to the four toon group we have I'd appriate it. Thanks a ton, poem
