I was wondering if anyone had a guide for this, and if the wow head guide was up to date. Thanks in advance
Level 19T BC Twink pally

I started with a Prot set, but soon found out that in pugs, you have to be ready to swap to ret set if there is already a Druid FC and a Prot pallys/warrior. Or to go holy set if there is lack of healers.
Now I just am trying to build all three sets, I’d suggest you do the same if your going to roll a 19 pally.
I will have to wait till mid Wrath when I can turn off XP to get Glacial Stone because I assumed I would be able to play just one roll and didn’t take the time to get it.

Here is my ret set minus the fishing gear and glacial. I will likely get grieved on the 3 piece fang, but 2 of the 3 pieces are already great for ret, just made sense to go for 3rd piece and get the expertise. Also have 25 Agil on glacial as it’s really nice for dodge and crit while you already have Crusader up. ( Put Crusader on WSG sword and Lifesteal on Shadowfang, then when you go prot you have both chants on 2 super solid 1 handers). Super fun set to play, especially when you grab zerker and get some big crits
Here is my prot setup

Here is my holy setup

The healing shoulder enchant mp5 plus the ring mp5 is very useful for long fights or no chance to drink.

For those doing the quest line for Glacial Stone you absolutely must minimize XP as much as possible! Make sure all other loose ends xp wise are tied up before level 18, at level 18 you want to complete each quest without getting any extra xp (dead when mobs are being killed) even though it typically will take you all the way to level 19 and a little bit further : ) But at least if you do it carefully you'll have a little wiggle room left over!

I play paladin as Holy/Support.
Spell crit/spell damage are a good way to go to put out some decent DPS and also heal.
This is what I run: https://seventyupgrades.com/set/jh6FkotHHbeP5eyL9hLyY4
I think the spell damage and crit shoulder is the best, I have the healing one too but I think 12% crit is way better than a little bit more healing. Preference though.
You could use spell damage legs too if you like but in that instance I think the healing is better. Again I have both.
Spike is a MUST.

Love the builds guys! What does your talent set ups look like? I gotta farm up some of the more expensive Boe stuff on my main as I still need to save up for epic fly on the main.

Thoughts on Forrester's axe of the eagle?

I'm forming my healing set,and was thinking of stacking healing power. I made some blue over alls till I get the robes from corbahn. What is the viability of this type of setup?

Personally love this setup. Then again I would only recommend using some of the green “of healing” gear once you have fishing boots and hat.

Hi in Response to a few of your questions.
TALENTS
Talents I have done on my build but I would say that Redoubt and Guardian's favour is a MUST no matter what build you are playing then the last 3 talents are up to you. For anything damage or tanking related I would take the Hit rating talent but personally I take the int for addition mana.
GREEN ITEMS
As for green healing gear, I have it in my bags honestly I don't swap to it that much (I have a green healing mace with +55 healing on it). You are not going to out heal a priest. If you want massive healing numbers, roll a priest. I think you should run a shadowfang for the DPS and with spell damage on it is my preference, I suppose you could run +55 healing and have a little less spelldamage and some more healing.
If you wanna get really sweaty you could have a +22 int weapon and use that until you use up the mana then swap to a spell damage weapon but tbh I don't struggling with mana at all.
ADVICE YOU DIDNT ASK FOR
In the set I linked up there my damage is not too bad, its not rogue melee DPS but its enough to pressure a healer or whatever.
I think the key to playing paladin support is knowing when you should be hitting things and when you should be healing things. That is basically the whole class at 19. Keeping freedom up on key players, rogues on offence, FCs on defence. BoPing priests and mages to keep them able to participate etc.
You have enough damage output to chase down EFCs, annoy priests, stop hunters from participating in fights etc. And you have enough healing power to keep people alive when you need to do that.
Disclaimer: I am by no measure and expert and all of this is opinion. Do whatever you find fun.

based on the CW and CTBC, CLassic WOTLK will roll with a with a deep near end of expac patch close to the Cata prepatch.
all the classic games are separate. so classic wotlk does not mean you will be able to turn off XP in CTBC, just like you don't see CTBC enchants, items, etc in the two CW versions
with WOTLK XP off patch alot was lost to nerfs and level gated like head and shoulder enchants, leg armor and spell threads where breaking armor and using mail, BOAs loop holes no longer worked
