I have been leveling my Paladin in Ret and also tried Prot. I am currently level 67 with a mixture of dungeon blues and socketed greens.
My issue currently is lack of damage unless im in a dungeon with a shaman dropping WF which most of the time I can do about 700-800 dps single target.
In the open world when questing I often find it difficult to even hit 250 dps. Why is it that in dungeons I can do so much but in open world so little. Any tips?
mate don’t worry about that. in early game pala ret sucks as in vanilla but when you’ll get some good gear u’ll see the improvement.
Keep in mind that you have to wear some leather/mail gear to get good stats i suggest you to check on www.google.it tons of guide for ret pal in tbc pve.
I’m almost 70 and i have usually a 400-500 dps in dungeon withouth wf of leader of the pack buff then it increase slightly.
Remember to do Arcatraz and get the 2h mace pogggg af and then get revered with keeper of time and get into Black Morras HC and get the QUANTUM BLADE that is a 2h sword with 100 ap and 28 crit perfect for your pre raid bis gear.
dont listen to the kids " uhhh ret pal sucks " and then they play lock and hunter with 1button macro.
