Leveling Specc?

[eplet]

Hello,
I'm gonna level my paladin soon.
I bought the heirloom shoulders and the 2 hand axe.

So, what specc should I level as?
I was thinking prot, but as I have the heirloom 2h axe I won't be useing a shield.
Would Retri beat prot in the low levels 1-60, or should I stay with prot to lvl 60 and respecc to Retri then?

[Palloo]

not leveling as retribution is pretty much stupid, buy the shoulders and the arcanite reaper and you wont have any problems leveling

When were talking pala leveling. Can you give a link to a spec? Spec for lvl 30, 40,50,60,70 and 80. Would be nice (currently lvl 38 on mine, got shoulders + spell heirloom trinket)

mail or plate version? i heard the plate changes to mail if it's on a char below lvl40?

[hyperionas]

yeah it changes to mail , fyi get the 30 stam and resi ench for 10k honor and put them on before sending them over , it doesnt make the shoulders soulbound , and 300 hp is always good to have at low level

Well, I've heard that Prot was the best to level as.
But I think that was before people got the heirloom items.

What about these?
30 Specc Nothing special
40 Specc Won't take holy shield since I am not using a shield.
50 Specc Taking holy shield now for avenger's shield
60 Specc The hammer of righteous is just a waste really, it requires a 1hand

Over lvl 40 things I take just feels like waste, so I might think it's better respeccing to retri around lvl 40?
If I level as retri, what seals/judgements should I be using and stuff...

Prot is not better or worse to level with. It's just different. As prot the thing u do to level is either tanking instances, or AoE'ing down mobs. (When you get to higher levels you can take 20+ at a time)
However killing singletarget mobs as prot is a pain in the ass.
So ret is if u like to quest and stuff, and prot is if u like to have ur whole screen covered in yellow numbers

Yea, I just want to quest and level up. But as I'm using the 2handed heirloom axe I won't be using a shield. So prot might be stupid.
