Why do holy pallys feel weak?

I’m new to holy pally just hit 32 but …

Serious question … are we in need of a buff?

Because My aoes heal maybe 10% health x1 time. Holy light feels very weak, spamming it does essentially nothing

Also oh st moments ? Theres no group wide oh st button

Think i need some tips

Get to level 70. Only then you will unlock the full potential .
Your AoE heal buttons are Beacon of Virtue, Light of Dawn and Divine Toll.
Your other cool buttons are Aura Mastery and Blessing of Sacrifice.

Make sure you make clever use of the above.
Don’t blow all your cds at once and make sure you have some holy power, otherwise you are in big trouble .

If you made it to level 70, and still wanna play HPal in M+, have a look in
Ellesmere’s Holy Paladin website.

My friend you need to embrace the glimmer and melee healing build. You are a proximity healer so your heals will be stronger the closer you are to your target.

Holy Paladin AOE healing is lacklustre- the only thing you can do to resolve this is use the Beacon of Virtue, Divine Toll and Light of dawn combo.

Holy paladins have great HPS, poor mobility, so you need to be smart about positioning and mechanics. As long as you can juggle this, you will do just fine.

Good luck. :blush:

Important: is that data from lvl 32 dungeons? What type of dungeons are you doing? Bfa specifically is super broken and you can’t heal anything at all there, especially if you’re closer to 60 and your tank is lvl 10

I am trying the caster build myself, I don’t even know how this all works with melee, seeing you need to wait forever to use them again. I am sure I need more haste, but how does that even work? When I am doing WQs, I even wonder what to do between button pressed, or that all will be faster in time ?

Yes BFA and its really badly scaled, I can hardly keep anyone up in most situations. I’ve switched to legion and ill have another go at holy within the next couple days.

Honestly im switching between resto druid and holy pally right now and the difference is night and day, but i suppose with druids being fotm and me not having access to all talents on the pally makes a huge difference. The thing is both the druid and pally are the same levels but holy pally feels vastly inferior, It’s the aaoe healing on the holy pally and the oh s***t that feels so weak.

Do you main a holy pally? If so any tips ?

Since you responded to me: No. I tried it once in bfa and it just made me give up on it really quickly. Prefer it nice and simple with a holy priest :angel:

Thank you for this, I’ve been standing wayyy back to avoid damage in BFA dungeons without realising that the mastery is all based on proximity … I’m a fool !

Also thank you for the aoe combo idea, ill give it a go in the next week once i pick up the talents. I really want to like H/pally so your comment is massively appreciated
