Utility Retribution Set.

Gang shit
Would this be a good idea or am I just crazy?

Prioritizing survivability on a ret to burst heal your team mates where other healers don't shine as well.

With battle fatigue going to 60%, Retribution's, Flash of Light, heals more than any other class or spec atm.

I might test a test build for a shield ret, idk yet.

Retribution doesn't lose much DPS from stacking survivability over stats such as Strength or Critical Strike, so take that into consideration.

( Can also serve as a back - up FC )

What are people's thoughts and opinions about this, and for those that have already tested this give me some input.

Let him play what he wants? Dogshit way of thinking. On a side note, If your main purpose is to offheal, I'd go for a stamina/strength heavy build. If you want to try to do damage, I'd suggest stacking crit.
 
Sounds interesting.. I prefer playing my ret spec over any other spec (unless dungeon grinding). Based on what you said I would think that crit / haste / stamina are the most important stats.

I simply said stop, im not trying to force anyone to play prot, let him play whatever he wants

but this is completely obvious that he made a thread to get post views and people to get into useless arguments and flame like now

Neon has been trying to play ret for a while now, but when he asks for help he's met by people like you. If you have nothing beneficial to say, stop posting.
 
in this bracket every class/spec has 2-5 key abilities. Im sorry if your join date is Join Date Sep 2011 , it has been over 2 years since that , it is impossible to not master every class/spec by that time even if you have never played it

what is there to say? Stack strength and carry a shield for fc..thts all

He asked for an opinion. I provided him one. Going ret he would get globaled by...for example all your characters listed in the siggy before he can even pull those heals off

I see why kale quit posting here, these petty arguments over something completely irrelevant or downright retarded never stop
 
He obviously asked for input. Your first post was the exact opposite of that darkspearwow1. It was a piece of shit for that matter. I have had very little problems playing a ret paladin for these past few years and I think it's an interesting idea to try and make a set for different circumstances.

Retribution isn't as bad as you think, since the healing nerf, Retribution can heal through more pressure than any other class or healer.
 
I feel like the only downside to this is lack of instant heals, considering there's even more burst in this bracket now (or so it seems). Unless WoG is actually effective as ret, but even then maintaining holy power with only Crusader Strike is kinda meh.

With the +20 mana to chest, you should be able to get 4 good heals in I believe, ( someone correct me if I'm wrong) I can usually save our FC from 10% health to full. Just ask Activate or someone how we have been able to 2 man 5+ person Defense in the EFR.

You can get alot of healing as Retribution, sometimes i get 40k+ a bg, and no one ever tunnels me so it is pretty effecient burst healing.

That's kinda interesting actually lol, cause I've almost never seen a ret paladin in bgs recently. But on a side note.. does that still make WoG somewhat useless?

Wog, is semi- useless unless you have 3 points, don't count it out though.

Also, I would not respec Retribution for pure healing, even though it has it's niche.
 
Honestly it's amazing how far Rets have fallen from their Cata days. Almost makes me sad, and honestly, I would take them over Prots any day.
