70 pally

Yo, I used to play 70s before I leveled my precious twink to 85. I was wondering if ret is viable in comparison to prot or holy



Thanks for the info
 
not really, ret is kindof underwhelming in this bracket. you'll have fun in random bgs and 3s, but without tazik you won't have reliable burst, just procs. you could go 72 for wings though.

at 72, rets and prots become gods. Unless they face a mage who knows what spellsteal is,

72 ret can destroy mages if they have their cd's... get their shield off then when they have no shield use hammer and after that when they blinked repentance, walk towards them pop wings, hammer of wrath, if they steal wings use divine protection and keep attacking.. guaranteed win:).

If you do not have Tazik on a ret paladin at 70 you are going to be doing pretty bad damage without zealotry up. If you happen to get Tazik it's best to use it at the same time as your arena team mates but if they do not have tazik you can always save it for art of war proc + tazik at the same time on top of a frost mage shatter if you play with one (ret pala frost mage 2s). You can always level to 72 and get wings but they have nerfed the crit chance with hammer of wrath so you are looking at 3-4k on full resil targets hammer of wraths and thats if you are lucky they dont have 600+ resil. only bad thing about leveling to 72 is you lose crit/hit and resil DR % and you cant remake arena teams or invite others or be invited to teams.
 
Two taziks, a mage shatter, art of war proc at same time? Dont you think that is a tad bit overkill? Atleast let them think they have a shot at living...
 
wow do people think classes are unbearable unless they have taziks? i played a ret pally and i did fine
 
I used to play a ret pally, actully worked fine for me ( Iw as 70 btw). Didn't have tazik or synapse. So ye you can do fine without all these.
 
if u plan on bging primarily then u def want to go 72, and rets do perfectly fine at 72
 
Prot works just fine at 70 after the vengeance change. Ret is also playable, but you're lacking quite a bit offensive abilities. Your heals are really powerful though.

Prot heals are better when used on yourself. But ret has the Selfless Healer talent, I've had 30k WoG crits on my 72 ret, and even 70 lvl player should HIT heal with WoG for 13k-15k when used to heal others.

Brotip; Titanium plating (http://www.wowhead.com/item=44936) is better than the shield spike if you fight any disarm classes.



But yes, at 72 paladins are just ridiculous. Prot moreso than ret (Nifflevar Axe says hi)
 
I'm not really that fond of prot. Sure you can kill melees quite 'easily', but any half decent caster will kite you to your death. Also 20CD on WoG hurts.
 
Let's put it like this: Ret is for solo play and prot then is for the times when you're playing with friends/random healer.
 
Forget what I said, go for the two noskill classes. Rogue & mage.
