Hello,
I’ve “mained” this pally you see in the left for almost 15 years.
It never felt so low as healer as now.
In the first years, we often had mana issues, etc. Then you added holy power to the mix and we had less mana problems, but two resources to manage, and it became more difficult to play.
Now we’re OUT OF MANA very often and also we have to manage the Holy power.
Playing a holy paladin is quite the dumbest choice in the game for now.
I cannot main a holy paladin anymore since it cannot even output the needed heal numbers to keep the group alive. The spec has been murdered.
The retribution paladin is the worse DPS in the entire game, having alone its own tier F or something in the most tier lists.
The damage is bad, in order to survive you need to sacrifice your entire damage and use the holy power you barely generate to heal yourself, the kit offers almost nothing to the group, sa basically nobody needs a low DPS that isn’t bringing anything useful into the game. See what the Evokers are bringing to the group and then LOL at paladins.
Paladins in Dragonflight are A BIG FAIL Blizzard. I will not even starts on the Protection spec, since I didn’t play protection lately and I cannot express a personal opinion.
I hope you’re aware of this. Whoever managed the paladins beta for Dragonflight I hope will find a better job somewhere else and let someone who actually knows something about the class to take care of it.
I’m very upset and I’m quite unwilling to play Dragonflight in this conditions.
I feel sorry for having paid in advance the game time and the most expensive Dragonflight game pack.
PS: I have tried many alts and I still love the paladin. That’s it. I will not play anything else, so don’t even try suggesting it. I don’t have time to play 10 alts. I have time for one and I play what I like, not what is meta.
The fact that Blizzard knowingly destroyed some classes and specs is telling everything about the care about some of their customers.
