And if the boss goes down faster its better. Espousing this will only lead to dissappointment on Paladin's part if they realoly believe they will be allowed to DPS in raid guilds. I even bet this guy is primarily a healer except when its a boss on farm status where the guild throws him a bone and lets him DPS. Call me single minded and inflexible all you want, there is a reason guilds specialize the way they do.

Do what you like, back in the days fury warriors werer gimp, plenty still played them despite the vast majority recognizing just how much more powerful Arms warriors were. It wasn;t until arms was nerfed and fury buffed that many switched to fury because it was astually a viable dps and pvp option. Ret paladins are in the same boat, unless they buff the tree, only the stubborn will use the build. the only reason these builds were always in end game guilds before was because you ahd to have a paladin with kings. Now most guilds require holy specs when learning new content, some require it all the time.

It's always a waste when you could have done it better another way. You just don't notice the waste if it is a boss already on farm status.
