So due the greatness that is dual-speccing, I’m a new holy pally with better than average new holy pally gear. I have only one piece of blue gear (my shoulders) and no green gear at all. In the LFG channel, I nervously click the “I are healer” checkbox since it’s sort of a misnomer when [...]

Patch 3.1 is finally live. The servers were down all day and most of the night (for me, on the east coast). I guessed the servers would come up around 10pm EST and from what I saw, I was mostly right. I checked at 9 and my server was down. I checked again at 11:30ish [...]

I don’t have a lot of time to comment on these changes at the moment, but here they are, from mmo-champion.
All paladins auras had their range extended from 30 yards to 40 yards.

Sacred Shield now cannot be on more than one target at any one time.

Players at maximum level will now be able to visit their trainer to pay a one-time fee and access the dual talent specialization feature. (1000 gold)
A new Gear Manager feature has been [...]

This is truly awesome! The first we’ve officially heard about dual specs and positive confirmation that it will be in the next patch (3.1). All of the information is very new and will take some time to digest. Here is the Q&A source. Below is the quoted text.

This past weekend was a great weekend for my pally. I got a quite a few achievements, raided Naxxramas as ret (I actually left with four drops) and I bit the bullet and respecced prot and tanked my first WotLK instance, a heroic one at that!
Naxx
I raided Naxx with my guild on Friday and Saturday [...]

I respecced to prot over the weekend because I really liked tanking instances. I wanted to get to the 540 defense rating that makes you uncrittable by raid bosses 3 level over you (i.e. level 83). I was looking to get as close to that number as possible with the tanking gear that I’ve been [...]

This is a big-time buff patch for ret pallys. Below are the patch notes. The only nerf I see is noted in red below. This change should really only effect Holy paladins since they are the only spec that should be stacking int (and therefore, their max mana is not the same and their base [...]

Divine Shield: Penalty changed so that all damage done is reduced by 50% instead of a attack speed penalty.
1) Divine Protection no longer causes an attack penalty. Divine Shield’s penalty was changed to 50% less damage done by the paladin.
This is fine in my opinion. I’ve always thought it was too OP to bubble and [...]

Ghostcrawler has provided a list of the upcoming paladin changes, due out with the next content patch (source):
We have already announced or suggested all of these changes would be forthcoming in the next minor content patch. I thought I would list them all in one place for ease of use.
