A more realistic scenario would be your Maul just doing 200 damage or 523 threat with a 20% chance for an extra 523 threat. In that same scenario with a Judgement that does 200 damage would do 390 threat + SoR 109 + auto attack damage at let's say 110 = 609. That's just Maul vs JoR, but the situation is very similar and they both have ways of increasing threat deliveries. Let's face it, if the healer needs 500+ threat to have a mob pulled off they healed some one with a big heal right after pulling an add which is the perfect time to use emergency cooldowns: taunt/challenging roar and BoProtection. Or they'll live with one or two whacks for pulling an add.
Just to add = on top of that JoW is going to provide him 0.5 threat per 1 mana or JoL is going to provide him 0.25 threat per 1 heal.
Still in 1 or another way , SoR/JoW/White swings vs Maul are going to provide lot higher due to JoW/JoL factors in it. (On top of Doubling Weapon Proc thanks to SoR like Thunderfury which is going to make massive AoE threat compare to Maul)

The whole point was snap threat. In a group scenario you normally aren't going to waste mana to use JoW/L for threat in a multi target situation because the threat gets divided and the mobs usually die too quickly. A boss is different, but you usually don't need snap threat for that and consecration is usually good enough.
I skipped 16 out of 17 pages because I'm really surprised this lasted so long. I see peeps crunching numbers, I see others saying yes in dungeons, don't let your dreams be dreams and so on. But to be quite blunt, if you can't swim then stay the hell away from water.
You [Paladins] can't tank swap so forget about ever being MT or OT on any raid, that's the obvious part, but you're also absolutely dangerous to the rest of the party on any dungeon you set foot on as a tank. I would never invite a Paladin to tank any dungeons, that group is just setting itself up for failure and eventually disband.
You have what? a Hammer of Justice stun and Righteous Fury? It's not sustainable, and it's going to be a very slow run.

Thanks for your wonderful contribution.
Pluuf I think you overdosed on the salt there mate. You must have played a different vanilla than mine.

About time we had some comic relief here, appreciate the quick joke amongst this serious discussion about furry cosplayers trying to tank vs our Chad warriors of the light.
Now back to talking about how prot paladins are the best paladins.
1. Because we are.
2. Because we can get away with wearing 5/8 T2 judgement, arguably the coolest tier set in the game while tanking.
Try and beat that. You can't. You think druids are cool until they shift back into their leather gimp suit and you have warriors that look like giant can openers. It's not lunch time, its raid time. Dress more appropriate.
Yeah... you let me know how that Taunt works for ya on Chromaggus mate.
29.5% is Classic Int = 1% Spell Crit (ONLY) for Paladins.
Holyfrog
Doesnt actually work that way 30. Int being 1% spellcrit is apparently just a private server thing seen on the Beta. Paladins have the exact same int to spellcrit conversation as any other class per the Beta. Perhaps if you actually followed the Beta development instead of leaving every discord in existence every time people disagree with you, you might know these things.
Private servers actually have it scripted this way which is most likely something that got changed in TBC to compensate for the nerf to Illumination at low tier gear levels (my guess).
Either way, my point is that that concluding that crit chance is twice as high in Classic based on Judging a mob 200 times on both private servers and on the Classic stress test is simply being stupid. How much int you need for 1% spellcrit isnt going to change that.
Besides, without seeing your actual data we cannot really know if even did a proper test. Judging mobs lower level than yourself will give you a higher chance to crit, and vice versa. From everything I have read on you in this thread so far, I have no reason to think you would properly have conducted a test like this on mobs of the exact same level.
You got Ganus McAnused there Kall!

Then I suggest you actually read the thread? Having the opinion that Paladins are literally useless is just as bad as thinking they are the best tanks. Im just fascinated how people consistently stick to their opinions when those opinions are clearly not formed based on reality, but rather what they think and feel.
There's nothing wrong with Paladins as far as dungeons are concerned, and multiple videos has already been linked showing Paladins can clear 5 man dungeons just as well as other tanks.
The issue with the class is in raids mainly due to gear and single target threat output. Actually doing a 5 man isnt a problem.
Edit:
Yeah... you let me know how that Taunt works for ya on Chromaggus mate.
I guess I have should finished reading before responding. Chromaggus isnt tauntable so clearly this guy hasnt done content past MC. Hardly someone with a relevant opinion then.
my point is that that concluding that crit chance is twice as high

You're making it worse for yourself.
