hi
you guys know some ret paladin combs?
i have a ret paladin alt i had a lot of fun with last seasson and i'm thinking about leveling it up to 90, but i don't know any good combs besides ret/hunter/healer.
is warrior/hunter/healer viable? are there other good combs? maybe some tripple dps with rogue?
i know vanguuards plays feral/ret/schaman at 2500 right now, but i don't know any good schamans and ferals :-/ . anyy toughts?

If you can find a good enhance, I think ret/enhance/rdruid would be a good comp.

I'm playing ret/warrior/resto shaman right now...I'm the warrior.  It is a good comp and can definitely work.  When both pop cooldowns and storm lash totem on top of it, with an offensive purge it can do retarded damage.  Or you can stagger cooldowns, Ret pops his to get the defensive cooldowns then I pop mine to get the kill (JK double deterrence/Ice block).  Vs Shattreeplay we split dps... me on priest and ret on mage.  Then I swap to the mage when he blinks and force Iceblock usually.  The game lasts a long time but eventually we get through all their defensive cooldowns and win.  VS KFC, we BOP the cooldowns and stop the warrior from shattering, get the traps and eventually you can win by training the hunter.  We have lost a lot vs KFC cuz sometimes you can't even bop in time when they pop cooldowns.  Most other comps we always have a chance of winning.  Only one hard counter we faced was shadow priest/ele/resto druid on Sewers.  Both druid and ele knocking us off constantly.

  Only played to 1900mmr, so I don't know if it will work at higher ratings, but that's how it's gone so far.

Retri/bm/healer

the two arena mates of my main char got a hunter and a restro druid at 85 so i'm propably gonna play ret/hunter/restro druid . seems like the safest bet anyways.
thy for advice guys.

Im playing this same comp, it's a great comp i've found that another counter is Affi/Frost/Rdruid due to the blink/vanish by druid with the portals by the lock and blinks by the mage we just cant catch them! However for staggering cooldowns we havn't tried that yet, so ill try it in a few arenas

3x DR comp: Ret/Mage/Monk

Will try it out this ID. Despite the insane amount of DR on controls this comp looks pretty decent. Try to kite a Ret with 2x freedom plus Tiger's Lust. Also the group buffs synergize very well and the monk can keep the mage offensive with his burst healing. Could be wrong, but I have high hopes currently.

What good are freedoms and buffs when everything is purged in 2 globals?

I like it more than when I'd spend my entire manabar and not get wings off in cata, or fearward, etc

Got to the point where using purge was basically wasting globals because it was so rng.

Not saying I'd be against a 2-300% increase in purge cost.
