First off I'd like to say hello to all the 39 twinks out there . I personally can't wait to get a 39 twink (still rockin' my 29 priest twink) where the bracket should be a bit more balanced, and I hear that my battlegroup (Nightfall ) is the most popular 39s out there. This post is very long and I don't actually expect many to read it, but if you do go through it I'd appreciate any feedback .
Anyway, I'm making an alliance Holy Paladin to play with a friend of mine who is moving his 29 mage twink to 39 and staying a fire build. I have a few twinks armory pages open for a reference to see some common items used by Holy paladins but I have a few questions of my own .
I've seen a level 19 druid twink with the Medicine Bag offered by attaining Honored (or friendly?) with Timbermaw hold because there is no level requirement. I also notice that the exalted trinket doesn't have a level requirement but I assume you can't get the feather quest unless you are level 45ish...and even if you can get the quest you probably can't turn it in a thousand times until 3.2...Anybody have any input on the matter?
I'm also wondering how you guys are valuing Resilience in 3.2 from a healer standpoint. With the upcoming buff, Resilience will nerf all incoming damage and with the BoA gear out there it isn't very difficult to get a decent ammount of it. Wintergrasp BoA trinket offers 12, 15 resilience to chest enchant (don't remember if that had a level req on it), BoA shoulders offer another 8 or 9. However, this is all theorycrafting from my point of view because I've never actually played any twink at 39, let alone a paladin. Do Holy Paladins even need to worry about survivability? If not than I might as well grab the Uldaman drop that the other paladins are using for their shoulders, right?
My last question revolves around race. I would prefer to play a female dwarf paladin, but being the min-maxxer that I am I'm factoring in racials into this more than I would on a character I plan to level cap. Stoneform v. Human Trinket v. Gift of the Naaru. Are rogues / hunters still a very viable threat at 39, making Stoneform a very potent racial? Or should I worry more about the locks (from what I hear they dominate the bracket) and go human? Or are neither really that terrible, allowing me to get GotN for some free heals? On a side note, if I were to roll a human it would free up a trinket to get Discerning Eye of the Beast (x2?) instead of that and a pvp trinket. Any thoughts on how potent that trinket is? (Offers 14 sp each, pluss 2% mana per killing blow...even though I know that Paladins don't really get killing blows haha).
If anybody actually read this, thank you very much and sorry I'm so long winded...I hope to see some of you guys out there in the 39s bracket.
