How important is Haste for a Paladin leveling up?
For a Paladin that tanks and occasionally solos, is a Haste item extremely important to have in comparison to a Warrior, SK, or other melee class?

Haste is a good addition to any Melee. If you can get your hands on an item I'd suggest you do it. If not, make sure your geared and start saving for one. Myself, I focus Gear > Weapon > haste. Obviously spells are in there as well and you should get them when you can.

its not that big of deal, you main threat is from flash of light and stuns. Your weapon and offensive skills are not as good as rogue/monk/war which results in bad dps.
Haste helps, but its not required by any means

Leveling up on live, I didn't have a haste item until well after I reached 60 (max at the time). It's not a huge deal, and certainly helps, but your DPS is low anyway and it won't make a huge difference.
I never saw the appeal of FBSS since it had no other stats (and as a paladin, my DPS sucked anyway), and never had luck on any high-end haste item. I ended up winning a roll on an ebon mace which I traded for a RBG, which was nice. | ||

One thing I never understood on live was the willingness of tanks to throw away stats and AC for haste items like FBSS. Having a 0ac, 0 stats belt because it gives 21% haste always seemed to me to do more harm than good. You're tank; above all else, you need tank stats. That said, once you can get your hands on haste items that DO have ac and stats, that shit is indispensable. Like someone else said, your aggro mainly comes from flash of light and stuns (especially after Velious hits) but faster kills are, you know, important.
