Unfortunately as prot/holy you don't get really huge AS crits since it scales much better with AP than it does with spell power. Or at least, it scales the same, but AP is easier to stack. Anyway mine typically hits for ~1.2k noncrit, and that's glyphed. Real prot paladins though: scary. @nb

It's nice to have options but I'm sure most paladins would trade it all for one spec that actually stacked up well against the current dominant healers. As always it's partly the metagame. Priest and shaman teams generally have an advantage over paladin ones, but paladins definitely have advantages versus some things (double DPS, especially double rogue). I'm just happy it isn't like season 4 where you have to be Zilea to even appear on the SK-100. Paladins aren't warriors right now, but at least they aren't hunters, either. Definitely.

Of course, my perspective is a little skewed because the only 2s comp I play is shaman/rogue, which seems pretty strong against most paladin specs (except prot maybe?) and is kind of a niche market.
