New to Paladin,and i have few questions.

ximinett

Hi,my half elf paladin will be a healer instead of a tank,i will learn oath of devotion as parangon tree and light feat tree. The main question is:what stats i should use as gear??? I mean armor penetration,but what more???? Deflection chance???? Power???? And what stat points i should up???? Constitution and Wisdom???? Or Constitution and Charisma???? Since Wisdom increase my healing power,maybe i should up Con and Wis is not it????

I need feedback. Thanks.

You build OP the same way for Prot and Dev. The difference is few feats and boons plus using different powers. Follow the guide from here https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/neverwinter#/discussion/1231686/pve-paladin-guide-by-greyjay-slappdaniel-and-its-viraaal The most important differences and must have feats/boons on Dev compared to Prot are:
- Beacon of Hope 1/5
- Prism 3/5 or 4/5
- Light Touched 5/5 instead of Warrior's Bastion on Prot
- Burning Guidance and Healing Warmth boons
- Bond of Virtue and Vow of Enmity are must have powers on Dev in group content

Also as OP you need to learn to play as both tank and healer. Also Prot is much better for soloing, and at end game much more in demand than Dev. Dev is mostly good only in raids and 10+ player content (Demo, Tiamat, SVA, Dragonflight, big Heroics).

I appreciate people want to make their own builds and play their character the way they want to play it. But eventually reality will hit you in the form of groups insisting on certain compositions. As Trebiat said, for end game you will want a justice paladin tank with PowerShare. That is pretty much a given. People want you to be able to tank to a certain extent but they really want good buffs (and a little dps doesn't hurt). While I have run T9G perfectly well on my justice healadin, groups that want a healadin are VERY rare. Out of about 40 T9G runs about 37 were as a tank.

So the lesson from this is - Use Greyjay's guide to build yourself an BiS Endgame Prot Pally for your endgame content/groups, and with your loadout slot, build a healadin using burning mechanics for everything else. Loadouts are a pally's best friend.
