Should Ret Paladin have been using shields?

[Evalrobot]

No but I did think that Ret Paladins should have had more affinity with their weapon, much like the Death Knight. It just seems to fit better with lore that a Paladin uses a special 2handed hammer, blessed or infused with Light or something, with abilities to reflect that spiritual bond.

Think Uther and Arthas (before the evil).

Its called a seal.

If your looking for a damage spec that uses a shield other than prot, petition to have shockadin brough back. It would make me happy
