I posted this as a reply elsewhere, but thought more people wouldm ake use of it here. So here it is:
When when you're grinding you want to head up the retribution tree, to max out your dps. So you wanna head for SoC, then up vindication eye for an eye, etc etc. However the retribution build is next to useless end game (in my opinion), As it does not help the paladin in it's princible ability (survivability). Anyway below is the first template, for grinding to 60 - and then below it there is an end game build.
Grinding build:
Retribution:
10-11-12-13-14: Improved Blessing of Might Rank 5/5 (This is your first step toward greater dps).
15-16-17-18-19: Benediction Rank 5/5 (Whilst not useful at these levels it brings you closer to the grinding essential Seal of Command.)
20: Seal of Command Rank 1/1 (/cheer).
26-27-28-29-30: Conviction Rank 5/5 (More crits = more dps).
31-32-33: Vindication Rank 3/3 (Potentially reducing the ammount of damage you take, thus decreasing downtime)
34-35: Eye for an Eye, Rank 2/2 OR Pursuit of Justice Rank 2/2 (Neither are that useful but are good point fillers).
36-37-38: 2 Handed Weapon Specialisation Rank 3/3 (Again allows for higher damage, great crit chance, etc).
39: Santicity Aura, (Bit more dps).
40-41-42-43-44: Vengeance Rank 5/5 (Again dps increase).
45: Repentance Rank 1/1 (Not that useful for grinding, but cant hurt if you need an emergency heal).
Protection:
46-47-48-49-50: Improved Devotion Aura Rank 5/5 (Less damage taken = less down time).
51-52-53-54-55: Toughness Rank 5/5 (See above)
Holy:
21-22-23-24-25: Divine Strength Rank 5/5 (This adds to your attack power, thus increasing dps).
56-57-58-59-60: Useful for healing when taking a beating.
When you hit 60 immediately respec if you want to be vaguely respectable in pve. Paladin is about survivability, and support healing (and primarily cleansing). Retribution helps you with none of these. The following 2 are 2 reasonable templates for end game raiding.
Template 1:
Holy Talents - 31 points
Divine Intellect - rank 5/5
Spiritual Focus - rank 5/5
Healing Light - rank 3/3
Unyielding Faith - rank 2/2

Improved Blessing of Wisdom - rank 2/2
Divine Favor - rank 1/1
Lasting Judgement - rank 3/3
Holy Power - rank 5/5
Protection Talents - 9 points
Improved Devotion Aura - rank 5/5
Toughness - rank 4/5
Retribution Talents - 11 points
Benediction - rank 5/5
Deflection - rank 5/5
Seal of Command - rank 1/1
Template 2:
Holy Talents - 15 points
Divine Intellect - rank 5/5
Spiritual Focus - rank 5/5
Healing Light - rank 3/3
Unyielding Faith - rank 2/2
