Well, to be honest, "Shockadins" aren't really great for soloing. It's actually more or less a PvP/Arena spec for burst damage and healing capability. If I were you I would spec Holy/Ret and have two sets of gear -- one for healing with +healing, stam, and int, and another for soloing with str, stam, and +spell damage.

I'm 67 right now and leveled holy / ret all the way from 10. At lower levels I simply hated the lack of push back if you are leveling ret.
The spec I'm aiming for is:

The only things I'm missing right now is maxed out sanctity aura and crusade.
I find it a really fun PvE spec as well, as you can easily heal through a bunch of mobs hitting you due to the amount of +dmg / healing you have and the armor from wearing a shield, as well as the amount of mp5.
The weapon for shockadin doesn't matter as much, since it primarily relies on spells - think a melee caster. It's just another "stat" piece, like any other piece of armor - the more +spell dmg and mp5 / int it has - the better. I, in fact, was using the Hand of Righteousness from SM Cath with +30 int enchant on it till 63 or so, as paladins get quite a nice boost to crit and dmg from int and there aren't that many good weapons until mid-60s for it.

I pretty much gave up on instances after I was told to "gear up" when I was invited into a party for *healing* and was wearing primarily cloth. Apparently, a few of the people in the party couldn't accept a cloth-wearing paladin. (silly newbs)

It does when shockadin'ing. :P
1-67 I rarely dropped below 40% dmg reduction. The addition of a shield combined with devo aura pretty much double your armor.

i'm 62 ATM and went with the first suggestion, 18 into holy and rest into Ret.
Has been a Dream, am able to heal 5 mans and yet still have a strong solo push, get Crusader strike back next lvl so it will only get better!
that's not a shockadin....

As I've said in my FAQ, a couple cloth will not break or make the raid, end of discussion on that part.
The only real question is, "how many peices of cloth does it require to break the raid?"
