Hello, the main reason for me to want a change in holy paladin is to create a ranged viable build while also getting more use out of Light of Dawn wich i think is a cool ability.
Im a healer main playing all healers since end of TBC, i have tried all healers on BFA and checked the new chages in shadowlands ( covenants, counduits, new possible playstyles etc)
Talents :
-first row:
Crusader´s Might : -> Crusader Strike reduces Holy shock cooldown by 1.5
seconds. ( this is what it already does)
-> Judgment generates 1 Holy power and coldown is reduced from 12 seconds to 9 seconds. When you cast Judgment your crusader strike wont generate Holy Power neither reduce holy shock cooldown while judgment is on CD. When you cast crusader strike judgment wont generate Holy power for the next 9 seconds.
Or
-Judgment generates 2 Holy power and coldown is increased from 12 seconds to 14 seconds.When you cast Judgment your crusader strike wont generate Holy Power neither reduce holy shock cooldown while judgment is on CD. When you cast crusader strike judgment wont generate Holy power for the next 14 seconds.
----------- Explanation.
Here i try to create a ranged playstyle that you can switch from melee to ranged on the fly ( super cool right? ) while also trying to balance with Bestow of Faith talent.
See that in second option judgement generates 2 HP vs 1 from Bestow while having longer CD and doing no healing while on first option it has 3 seconds shorter CD the Bestow but, again, it does no healing.
Second row :
Remove one of the talents and add :
-> Word of Dawn : When you cast Light of Dawn, Word of Glory will be applied to me most injured target healed by your Light of Dawn at:
—>A) 50% effectiveness OR
—>B) a % that represents the heal from Holy Shock, the reason for not display Holy shock is that so glimmer build dont get an interaction with this OR
—>C) 50% of the healing done by Light of Dawn is replicated on most injured target.
—D) a % that is 90% the efectiveness of Judgment of light in a party with 3 melees (1 tank, 2 dps or 1 tank , 1 dps and a melee holy pally).
Explanation :
- Light of Dawn is underwelming to use, atleast in M+, this would create a meaningfull decision between Word of Glory and LoD, here i try to balance the healing provided to the most injured target with the healing provided by Judgment of light ( Judgment of light can still be better in some situations ) or give to it a decent number “aka” the holy shock heals numbers OR even to reward a good use of LoD and it heals for like 30% of overall healing done to the most injured target.
What you think ?
I see so much fun on this spec but at the time its not as empowered as it can be in terms of gameplay / diversity / fun aspects.
I dont have beta acess but if you blizzard give me one, i can test this comparing the diferent playstyles in 4 / 5 days.
EDIT: received beta acess in the same day i wrote this, thoose that means something? xD
Sorry for bad editing but dont know better.
