Hi all,
I'd like to know which spec is better for 2v2 arena, I as an holy paladin and my partner being a warrior or dk.
As I have read, the best specs are 51/20/0, 32/0/39 or 18/53/0, but I can't choose which one would be the best, so I ask for your help.
Which build would suit my team best, and why?

I don't think you'd want to go with anything that isn't deep holy. The others can be interesting, but 2v2 doesn't suit the other specs as they're far less mobile (the deep prot one being completely stationary) and as such, rely on your team members to protect you with CC more.
if you were 18/53/0 + Warrior or DK and you faced ANY team with a rogue (especially the now quite popular, rogue+priest), you'd be up a creek without a paddle. You'd quite literally get off 0 healing outside of divine shield (which in this case would just be mass dispelled off of you).

There's alot of people above 2k with prot healing + dk, so its definately possible.
Some at 2.6k +
Get a hell of alot of stamina, it will convert into spell power, get spell power enchants.
Get the Arena libram (+healing on fol).
Download Interruptbar add on, use Aura Mastery at the right times, get your DK to stay in frost presence and as general rule keep sacred shield on him for the extra crit chance.
You will be pulling 9-10k fol crits, having a 20 sec stun, being basicly immortal, and a ranged silence to finish stuff off that crits for 8k.
Prot healing is just damn OP in the 2v2 bracket, you only need a resilient partner.
A DK with ALOT of resilience, AMZ spec'd, or a feral druid can work too.
When you get interrupted, dont panic, wait for it to end and just keep healing. You can't die, i can assure you. Your partner can though, that's why you want him topped at all times you are in control of your character.
When you face teams with CCs, burn your sacrifices to avoid being sheeped, blinded, etc: dont be afraid of using a early bubble or aura mastery, fights vs 2 dps dont last long if your dk / druid is half decent. You will be without cooldowns but fighting 2v1 and alive.
Also dont be scared to pull a Holy Light from time to time, when you have the time / chance, 12k HL are the normality and 23k crits will really make you laugh your ass off.
I used to play it myself in ret / prot healer, but ret paladins are just too squishy for that.
