Any potential for updating this with the 2.4 changes?

I looked over the 2.4 patch notes and did not notice anything that might have needed to be reflected in the guide; however, if there are changes that affect it, by all means point them out and we will update the guide accordingly.

Illidan does not crush. Morogrim Tidewalker would be another example of a fast attacking boss where holy shield charges will reliably prevent almost all crushing blows.

Under weaknesses, we should probably mention that anything wandering in to Cons will be tanked but probably not CC'ed any more.

I don't know how much I'll be playing WOTLK. Besides that, this guide was written over a year ago when Paladins were just setting our feet in the mainstream as tanks. It's purpose was to give Guild Leadership an overview of how the Paladin Tank works.

With that in mind, I would like to release this thread to the community, or more reasonable to the Moderators, however they wish to implement it. If someone were to write a similar guide for WOTLK, please at the very least replace my first post with a link the the new guide.

Thanks,
Igrado
