ok so i want to be able to grind with palm not often but now and again i would like to be able to kill mobs quicker than the time to make a coffee, that said my real question is what type of gear should l be using?

Ap, Str, Crit, Hit?
Sp Dmg, Int, Spell Hit?

have had a little look round the web and still am unsure.
As with my retadin going for ap and crit i thought this might be the same for Palm, but with talents i wondered if Holy shock was a more viable source of dmg.
Any help would be appreitated thanks

Roll a rogue!

but seriously, i think you're best off just stacking spell dmg, pull 4-5 mobs at the same time then consecrate and judge light or wisdom on a mob.

lol i have a rogue but for rep grinds i need palm:) (and to pick my flowers by those nasty annoying mobs)
yeah thats what i been doing but just wasn't sure main reason was when i got exhaulted with SSO i thought i would get a new neck to grind with and could'nt decide which one would be more benifital

yeah SP is the one - I have a DSP setup on my outiftter which mixes my healing and some pure sp damage kit I have to get it up to around 550 sp - I lose a load of heath but the mobs just arent able to hurt you much anyway and it makes grinding much faster and hence not such a pain.

Spell dmg is certainly the way to go - On Celtic I take zero dmg but takes me a while to kill mobs(I only have about 450 spell dmg - although a shield with a FI spike helps). Case in point I was in a Heroic MrT with Mfive and he used his conceration at same time as me - his spell dmg was greater than mine and he pulled aggro ..... and died ...... so the moral of the story is roll and alt.

In strength gear with a big 2 hander your white hits will do around 130 dps more than with a 1 hander and a shield, all your spells will do less damage. If you go all out your DPS on a single target your DPS will be around 350 for both situations.
With your shield you will take a lot less damage, heal a lot better and regen much more mana. That's why i would choose for a shield, 1 hander and spelldamage gear. (I also get bagspace problems when I have to take diferent gear for grinding with me ;)).
In this gear spelldamage and mp5 are the things you want to do the best damage and have little downtime. Spellhit and melee hit wont help much, altough a little melee hit can help. Intell is hardly a factor.
