Let me welcome you to Project 1999, where there are a million overgeared monks but you will only see them in KC and Seb. Its incredible that in Hole and HS there is usually barely anybody and the zone is wide open. Because one of the challenges of the paladin is the fact that none of the LCY nubs want to group with you is because of your XP penalty and the fact that you don't have the same damage output, I got most of my XP duo with a Rogue and we'd end up picking up a person or two here and there. Now in the 50s we will do trio or four man.
When you want to move the XP bar you don't always have the luxury of an Enc in your party, especially in low frequented zones. Especially when you are getting levels you will be doing a combination of root pulls and mez pulls. So I would count that as "quite often"
There is also a huge difference between "single pull" and "chain pull." If you're a good Paladin you'll use your entire toolset to make sure your group is in mulch mode, no matter your group composition.
