Rotation by level ?

[Quant]

Hi there,

New to being a tankadin, currently have a 25 horde ret pally and want to respec and level as prot (to get used to the mechanics of tanking with a paladin, already have a main tank warrior).

I was wondering if someone has any advice on appropriate rotation to use while leveling within certain level bands:

ie

25 - 34 (?): ability x, ability y, ability y, ability z (rinse/repeat)
35 - 42 (?): ability A, ability x, ability y, y, z (rinse/repeat)
...

That sort of thing. Appears there is quite a bit for post-70 rotation, was hoping to get a little insight into what I should be looking for/practicing as I level.

I hope that question makes sense.

Cheers
Quant.

Whatever works is the short answer. We di'n't have no fancy rotation back before level 70. There's really no point in practising 6969 until you're level 74 and actually have Shield of Righteousness. Just hit whatever abilities you have when they're off cooldown as your mana supply allows.

No problem! Thanks for the response, just thought I would check!

Well it's 75.

But just mash buttons till then

its the same thing as warriors, there is no rotation, but you generate so much threat as long as you have decent gear for your level (ie heirloom) just be like a ret, and hit wat ever is off CD

on my warrior, i just hit cleave and T-clap, along with bloodrage, shield block, and berserker fury. its lolfaceroll easy,

as long as you have a sword-and-board, you should be fine tanking

WOW! Spot on! What a great guide. Much obliged. Sure some of it is Alliance specific, but nonetheless a great effort and I greatly appreciate it.

I tried really hard to make it Faction neutral, but yes, I did all my leveling as a Dwarf before my recent 'change' to the Horde.
