That does sound cool.  I remember the first time I ran with a prot pally, it was with Kray in Botanica.  I had no idea how pally worked in any way at that point and just thought the player was amazing.  &quot;Aren't you gonna' mark 'em?&quot; says a groupie.  &quot;Nah, cc is for sissies!&quot; says the pally.  I've learned prot pallies are fun for Kray to run with!  I've run with 'em a handful of times since, including hCrypts the other day (on Kray again).  I used aoe anytime the damn hunter and mage didn't invoke cc and ended up doing just over 50% of the damage on the damage meter!  And I never pulled aggro...

I've heard pallies aren't as good in raid instances, especially for bosses where there is only one mob involved type of a thing.  But I've run kara with you as prot and didn't see a problem, so I dunno...
