I have a new 80 Human DK, and i was going to get a paladin to 80 because people have been telling me that pallys are way better. I was wondering, should i spend my Emblems to get my DK geared first, or just getting Heirlooms now?

Dont bother making a paladin, you will be facerolling the same keys you are now.
gear out dk, then buy some. i ended up buying a leather set because i used it to lvl my rogue, dk, and shaman. saves badges.
I guess you guys didnt notice yet how all classes can be facerolled now?
You dont really need more than 5 keys to play any class and put out some decent DPS.
But on thread: If you are going to only level your paladin and only log your DK to send money or something use your emblems on buying heirlooms.
If you switch between the DK and pala you could probably spend half emblems on gear and half on heirlooms.
Heirlooms are definately worth it, my priest is fully loomed and she can heal even THE WORST tank. My pally has the chest and sword, and he barely takes damage at lv 50.
Heirlooms are pretty awesome, if anything just get the shoulders and chest. The weapon is pretty good too especially if you put Crusader enchant on it for melee but optional as you get fairly good weapons leveling 1-58 and once you get to the Outlands you can get easily comparable items to the heirloom weapon from quests. The trinkets however are a bit lackluster and I wouldn't bother spending your badges on them.
/Agree.
And if you don't like the DK, then there's no need to gear him, if you want to buy heirloom items, get the Bloodied Arcanite Reaper and you're good to go.
I usually only buy the chest and shoulders (And most of the time the WG shoulders which you can buy for Stone Keeper Shards) just for the 20% XP bonus you get. I never bother with the weapons tbh
An update on my opinion: My priest made it to 61 now, her heirlooms are able to heal fresh DK tanks specc'd for DPS / Geared in the DK Blue (starting) DPS gear that have threat issues.
In other words, I can heal the full group with the amount of mana I have because of the 3 heirlooms (Chest {triumph}, shoulders{Stone Shards}, staff {Triumph}), which isn't easy because I get stuck with groups consisting of 4 fresh lv 58 DKs.. plz to not no mores.
uh for lower leveling yes but when your 80 u want the t8 i personaly think its better
I indeed suggest getting the heirloom items. Mainly the chest and shoulder though. Also the ring if you really wanna overdo it :P 25% bonus is quite a lot in my opinion. 4 hours per lvl from 70-80 would be 3 hours. Ish. xD
