SOD - The current state of Retribution Paladin

WoW Classic Season of Discovery

yeah, i saw it really often in bg´s when it comes to rogue

peoples complain about the dmg, but did they have seen, when a rogue starting to cc your whole grp?

he can sap one, cheap shot one, blind the other one, thistle tea, gouge the “cheap shot” target

and the enemy team already have a Disadvantage, even if it´s only 10-15 sec, thats what i liked about classic, it´s simple, but effective, but i think, peoples want to have a button smash experience, where u have to smash your buttons in an order

yeah i didnt know it either, until i happend to me in a Ab game 1 Week ago, i hated the enemy Pala for doing it, but it was also a good play by him, and shows that peoples know about their class, and strength

i wish more people would think like this

I think things like that makes the difference between a good player, and a not so good player, or a player who plays the class longer than just 1-8 weeks, things like this are the main reason why i picked a hybrid, support class as an main when i started playing pvp

i just noticed, that most of the players just ignore you in the bg, (not everyone) they just want the kill, smashing the dps button that´s it, while i die infront of an priest because of dots, while he had 70% mana left, 1 heal would be enough while i was also eating to keep my allive. but first place on the scoreboard is more important…

Wow! Just amazing!

These buffs did it!

We are exactly in the same spot, but we deal Holy damage now.

But, don’t worry, Shamans got everything now. But, it is all right for them, since they are a Horde class.

Rofl, a Paladin crying about being bad. You 3-shto everything in sight, clearly a skill issue.

I have to admit this CS change is absolutely underwhelming, it seems it scales extremely poorly with spell power.

86

Couldn’t 3 shoot the Gnomeregan bosses.

Now go cry on another topic about the raptor strike nerf which won’t 1 shoot everything in stv.

Just get good. You definitely need it. Nobody asked you, anyway.

87

It doesn’t scale with SP at all. It was noted in patch notes. They just wanted it to hit good and consistant against all types of armor (mostly overbuffed mechabosses of gnomereg).

88

So if CS dont scale whit sp/holydamage and they will lower the armor on bosses, what is the point of the change?

My own sulution to help paladin dps would be to ad X% holy damage to CS and DS that sp will effect and if you need to tweak the damage you can focus on that part.

89

Well, it seems like they didn’t foresee the sheath of light rune existing in a future.
If you play SoM, both seal and judgment are not buffed by SP. They scale only from weap damage, like CS and DS. So all these options are not getting benefits. This is why we entirely rely on exorcism spam rn.

My friend dont listen to some of thsi dude they are just saying stuff because they have a motivation for it and shmirgel is the biggest liar and he always in all topics telling people are talking shiit and that they dont know what they are talking about when he never even try the class. i already hade arguument with this dude. and he got so expose so be careful with him just

91

But how can you say that paladin is cry babies

when the forums is less about paladins. Every classes have cry about there classes for years. Paladins only time they are complainen its this phase 2 because paladins are tired of be the worst class wtf you talking about. like what you saying is making non sense. Bro if you look have cry the most is druids then hunters then Rogues/warlocs and then mages and after priest/warriors : Paladins are the less people that cry. check all the forums just for sense sod open and you will see who have cry the most. jsut count them in forum.

92

If you think Paladin is the worst class, you never played warrior.
Warrior made me unsub SoD.

yeah i think they should go as cloth and they should not use 2hand wepons because they are the bestv class in the game. it means they have always been the best class in the game. just one time thye where not so good. but the rest of all expansions paladins was the best. in vanila tbc wrath cata ect ect retri paladins was the best class i hope they nearf paladins

I don’t cry about nerfs, or think that my class is bad, unlike you. Learn to play.

I dislike that Blizzard made Paladins a ranged melee class who can’t be kited so you just watch as you get killed from 20-30 yards away because exorcism, holy shock, melee attacks, divine storm and every other spell in their toolkit crits for 2-2.5k each.

But at least they are still desperately trying to make melee hunters a thing in a game where ranged are taken for the damage and ease of mechanics.

98

This is not what i understood from the patch notes. It tells it’s not a spell, exactly like SoC, which means it can miss, be dodged or parried, cannot be resisted and has base crit damage of 100%.

That said if it scales it is indeed very tiny, probably less than 15%. Hard to tell only with observing.

99

but we say that you say is the true and paladins is SO “good” jsut that they need agility to crit with mele and int to crit with spells. so you know just. and its nto alote armor with agility for paladins or int for paladins. but we say you all here have right about the paladins. So tell me why are you guys saying it? is it not time for retri paladin to have and let them have it because they never hade it before. so let them have it. But i know they dont have it they are the worst in pve and pvp. nobody whants them at pvp or just one in pve for the buffs
