Is crazy high, not as high as some deathknight tanks I’ve run with before, but it’s pretty damn high. A few nights ago, I set a personal best, in Heroic Utgarde Keep with 1776 dps, as a tank. Then last night, UK was the heroic daily again! So I found a group, let them know [...]
The announced changes seem to be prot-pally related, for the most part (source). Blessing of Kings – this spell is now a base ability trainable by all paladins. Blessing of Kings being a baseline talent is AWESOME. This is something the pally community has been raving about for ages. Exorcism – this spell now causes [...]
So the paladin’s were hot-nerfed again. This time, the developers made Avenging Wrath cause Forbearance again. The forbearence debuff was removed in patch 3.0.2 (and now re-added). I don’t feel that this was a horrible nerf though. The was another PvP nerf. Paladins were able to use Divine Shield and then pop their wings (i.e. [...]

I logged in this morning to do my Isle dailies and noticed after the first few fights that I was out of mana! I’ve never had this problem before on my paladin, since the 3.0.2 patch anyways. I ate/drank and got all of my health and mana back and started paying attention to the numbers [...]

I won’t hit on them all, I’ll only do two that I think are the largest issues. First off, rank 3 of Judgements of the Wise (JoTW) reads as: Your Judgement spells have a 100% chance to grant the Replenishment effect to up to 10 party or raid members mana regeneration equal to 0.25% of [...]

I normally don’t give a damn about incoming changes, so long as the class is still fun to play but this latest batch is a killer in my opinion. From the forums, here is the nerf post (source). I know many of you asked good questions before the posts hit their limit. I am not [...]

I finally dinged level 70 on my paladin Sunday morning! I had a lot of spell upgrades, including Blessing of Might, Rank 8 and Avenging Wrath! My pally finally has her wings! It seems like I’ll have to wait for boss fights and/or soloing elites to use them though, since I seem to blow through [...]
So it looks as if all the crying by other classes that say that retribution paladins are OP (overpowered) have prevailed. One of the new spells, Divine Storm, and one of the reworked spells, Seal of Light, were nerfed. Divine Storm was nerfed by making the damage physical whereas it was holy damage. The nerf [...]

Blizzard released patch 3.0.2 for WoW yesterday and am I glad that I finally started leveling my paladin again!! The servers were all supposed to be up at 5pm EST yesterday but there were lots of issues from what I’ve read. I had family stuff to do so I didn’t notice any problems until I [...]
