In Murozonds Rise, once again, a 2h intellect Mace is dropped from Tyr.
Hpals in their current state cant use 2h weapons properly because of mostly 2 things:
SotR
Armor/Block bonus
Change SotR permanently to something else or make its functionality work with a 2h (change tooltip and interaction).
Add passive spec ability of getting equivalent armor amounts of a shield when wielding a 2h weapon.
Now hpals have more weapon variety and also can use their 2h weapon like the Lore suggests in various scenarios, e.g. Uther.
Shield of the rightenous gives such a low value to damage reduction…
Its like this -
3 Holy Power to reduce damage by 6% or use the holy power to heal you or an ally by 15-20%…
The block chance is something like 8% for Holy…
The armour ratio vs vers in pvp is almos the same…
SotR and amour/block is useless in pve…
So yes I totaly agree…
Legion was the first to introduce HolyPaladins to 2hander as a base line and made it work.
