No, they need to Divine Strength everyone before the pull, then log out and watch the raid from character select.

Paladins are terrible dps, but Divine Shield should not be underestimated on raids. Often during raids there is a gap in healing on the Warrior. Paladins save the day with Lay on Hands. LoH also works while silenced which can be huge. For any trash mobs such as Halls of Testing I prefer a Paladin tank for 80% of the mobs.

And it doesn't matter how much mana you start out with, he would always have 300 more mana in any given situation. Even when OOM he'd spent 300 more mana. Compared to a SK, for instance, who only really need to concern himself with having mana for disease cloud/shroud a Paladin has a lot more tools to add to his or her party(which when employed intensely would definitely be consumed faster than any mana reg would negate bar having a necro dedicated to feeding you). Point is, yes, mana is important for a Paladin. I'd say, as a hybrid we're closer to the cleric side rather than the warrior whereas SKs are closer to the warrior than they are the necromancer. | |||

300 mana is 4 more casts of divine strength before you sit down and make all the important people wait

I created a pally (blue) as my first character and I'm now level 17. I've not had a problem (yet) tanking for the most part, but I've really only scratched the surface. I would like to raid at end game because I never got the chance back in 2000. This thread has made me second-guess my choice, but I'm not going to throw in the towel yet.
I've raided on live with rogue, sham, cleric, and war(as trash tank) as well as played wiz, mag, enc and druid to near-max levels, so I'm comfortable with almost any role. My question is this: if you were in my shoes, would you re-roll to be more desirable in raids? Keep in mind I'm not that invested, nor have I had a problem playing any of the aforementioned classes, so it's not a huge deal for me to start a new char. Appreciate any feedback or suggestions. | ||
