For every 5 hunters I meet in 1v1 world PvP, I beat 4 of them (and I am NOT very good at PvP). A good hunter will be able to beat a Prot Paladin, but 80% aren't that good. Shield throw to daze the hunter and pet,lose the distae with the hunter, sealjudge, throw in a HoJ, HoR, a few swings, Judge, HoR, HoW. That kills 80% of the hunters I have run into. If the hunter gets the drop on you and drains your mana, youan lose pretty easily, but I always have a few mana pots on me for emergeies.
Well, I'm a prot pally... and Ian beat anything eept a healer. Ian even beat lks if they're dumb enough to not use Felhunter. ase in point; I was attked by an enhae shaman, a ret paladin and a rogue the other day and beat all 3, then ate and drank and stood up ready to beat them all again. Granted, they wererap, but Prot is not to be messed with by the unwary any more.
After 3.0 but pre-Wrath I had quite a bit of fun dueling guild members before and after runs as Holy. The onlylass I found that absolutelyould not beat was our damned priest. Manaburn has to be the most annoying spell EVAR!1!1 He beat me soundly the first time I fought him. After I knew what to expt we would just go on and on forever. A few times ending upaelling the duel due to being too far away from the flag from s or Fears. Everything else was pretty mh a breeze. Holy Shk seems to be so buffed now I pretty mh just hit that as soonD is up. I am very interested in trying Prot though. It's been a long time but I hear nothing but good.
