Paladin Talent Guide & Specs

Paladin's are widely known for their ability to quick heal while taking damage. They can also use concentration Aura, mixed in with the right healing talents they are not possible to interrupt from periodic damage unless stunned or incapacitated. Paladins are also widely preferred as an Arena healer just because they can bubble like the best of them and have great damage mitigation with their plate armor.

I could stop right there but that's not all they are good at. In the Burning Crusade Paladins were widely desired as AoE tanks for instances and raids. In most cases Paladins sufficed as raid tanks for bosses. In the Wrath of the Lich King, Paladins are supposed to be on par with the other DPS classes.
