Hey , saying this before it maybe happen
Don’t add it , Divine Steed was the beginning of the end of what a true paladin was pre Legion, do not add it into classic , if you want an alternative to Divine Steed here are some options:
< Fancy Name > Whenever you cleanse yourself from a movement impairing effect gain 3% movement speed for 20 sec stacking up to 10 times , works with Pursuit of Justice. (This would still fit in the niche of a classic paladin slowly but surely getting to it’s target , the more you slow him the more hard it gets to evade the wall of justice)
< Long Arm of the Law > Increases Judgement range by 15 yards and a successful Judgment increases your movement speed by 35% for 3 sec.
< Speed of Light > Increases your movement speed by 70% for 8 sec. 45 sec CD.
(Blizzard if you want to give us Divine Steed give us this instead , we had it in MoP/WoD and it looked way more cool than relying on a mount in combat to come out of your a rse for 3 sec , another benefit is that it stacked with other movement buffs which divine steed does not because it is work like you are on real mount)
Another alternative to mobillity would be to give us a slow since the original design for paladin was to not have any give us a slow instead , the TBC version of Seal of Justice Judgement should be enough
Thank you

Nah you aint a paladin if you dont like divine steed,
mounting on a righteous, bright, divine steed, in heavy shining armour to run down and bring judgement to those who deserve so,
as a real paladin main, i would welcome divine steep with open arms,
none of that fancy name rubbish you suggested, you want us to cleanse ourselves in order to get a speed boost that has to stack? forget that.
( ranged dps and healers kiting paladin )
Paladin " ohhh you just want until i cleanse myself and get enough stacks you catch up to you, one day i’ll be there "

At this point any mobility/slow would be welcomed. Leaving ret as is, with the addition of the 2 garbage new runes, introduced today, makes it unplayable. Trash in pvp trash in pve.
Give us any mobility and a reliable slow and fix DS & CS to do holy dmg.
Don’t think we have the luxury of being picky. Am I wrong?
I assume you did not play before Legion that’s why you have this opinion.
Dependant on what way Blizzard is leaning towards ret mobillity , if they want to make it underwhelming if added or good I displayed both underwhelming/situational aswell as good forms of mobillity.
I suggest you watch this video from Savix displaying how GOOD ret mobillity was BEFORE they added the pony and how it was AFTER they’ve added it , im sure you’ll consider changing your opinion.
I put it on the right time stamp
