Considering a Re-Spec. Thoughts?

[Caesarmoo]

I have been considering a respec for a long time. currently i am a mixed bag build with reckoning. It's a decent build, but i could get more damage or healing by stepping away from the mixed bag approach.

Here is my currently build: 13/25/13. Thoughts?

i am up for other suggestions as well.
As it costs 30 gold to respec a single time (for me), i want to be sure i am solid on my spec before going through with it.

(no, it doesnt cost 30 gold your first time. ive specced a lot)

I have also thought about re-spec. I like your the first thought you had. Both are good, but I think I like the first one the best.

My pally is 31 holy/ 20 ret, though I admit wanting to try going at least 31 into ret and the rest in holy...

I actually just saw a post earlier that you might like about Pally's and tanking:

After looking at these again, I can see you enjoying the ret/holy build.

I would suggest that repentence would be too good of a utility for you to not divert one point into it. I'd say either drop divine strength, divine intellect, or as a last resort, spiritual focus a point to get repentence.

I'm currently sitting on 31-19....(lvl 59) Holy/Ret works pretty well for me, I need to move around my retro talents a bit though cause I find myself needing a few of them less and less as I go. Once I hit 60 and get a bit more gear i'm probably gonna go Holy/Prot though for the better survivability.
