Retribution Paladin Basic DPS Guide 4.3 Part 1

[@pametless]

By far the most interesting guide I have ever come upon :D

[@YoshuraEU]

Nice vid explains Ret well. Also nice to see your choosing haste over crit, I don't use the ret addon as i've played Ret since classic. Also the best time to use GoAK is after you've got your first CS in so he can stack up that nice little buff he gives you when you burst.

[@Knotton]

Now THIS is a guide. Most i have watched indeed were 4 minute long training dummy slappings.

[@yermommy777]

that ret paladin just made my dps go up by about 8k on a test dummy, i can't wait to try it in a raid

[@hectormatuu]

everybody have their way to have fun, I bet this guy has a lot of fun helping other people about this game, beacuse he likes it.. don't judge people and let everyone live as they want, darn it.. if you don't like, don't watch

[@praill]

CLCRet is useful, but it gives up some dps for holy power ie having a divine purpose proc and cs at the same time during zealotry and telling you to pop cs instead of tv, where you could get extra procs off cs

[@kylethecatmuncher]

what addon do you have thats like the pink bars ha

[@stevoridesagain]

He had seal of righteousness up. With the seal of truth glyph, that seal gives 10 expertise also. He had 15 expertise unbuffed.

[@Zodiacman16]

You should be using Judgement whenever possible. It is your best mana regen ability thanks to Judgements of the Bold and Communion, both of which are talents. If you are still running out of mana quickly, try using the Ascetic Crusader glyph and other similar glyphs, but in my opinion, it's hard to run out of mana while keeping Judgement up.

[@dudestick999]

PREACH U ROCK!!!!!!!u are the master of wow guides!!!!

[@KuSQ3N]

love ret pallys as they are so fun to play

[@curtisbourke8338]

Whats the best place to go to level from 77 to 85?

[@MrATFRaptor01]

RSham and Prot Paladin.Guilds always need tanks and healers. Particularly if both have a DPS offspec or the tank has an offspec heal.

[@Aaron22734]

I am a Ret Paladin, I pull 28k - 30k in LFR, ilvl 386, am I ready for Normal DS 10man, or should I get more valor gear before I go into it?

[@zIceCoLD]

Name of Addon?

[@preetyflyforawifi]

wow glad i watched it now. hope you do one for mists so i can actually play ret then.

[@micro306]

what is the unit frames called ?

[@Rissien73]

Hey Preach..... loving the vid. Can I ask what add ons you using for health / mana / damage / and which seal is active? BTW where you from ( rough area ) accent sounds familiar :) Rissien

[@TheJohanbatuello]

what realm are you on?

[@WorldofGuitarHero]

@wshabel So is Turn Evil, but that should be Instant. (;

[@TheHarimir]

castque macro will not waste your mana on extra seal casts. aside from that, he is right on haste being the best IF it gets you to the next "step" on your gcd, aka for every 1,5 sec it can reduce your cd its the best stat, yes even better than str

[@BladePocok]

where is the rotation?

[@Furyweapons]

Hey Preach, love the videos man. I am coming back to WoW after about a year and a half from quitting in WOTLK and i had exp with pretty much every class and was pretty exceptional with a Warlock, Ret Pally, Unholy DK, Ele sham, Rsham, and a prot paladin. I was wondering which of these classes do you think would be the best to play coming back to Cata and which one would most guilds be interested in recruiting?

[@PsychoDante77]

havnt played in almost a year. i got alot of catching up to do. got 3 85's ; ; and no new gear for them lol. downloading today.

[@Preachgaming]

its ok, im sure theres a vid of someone dribbling on a training dummy for 5 mins and calling it a guide that will suit you

[@timbos07]

lol, Brofist to the face there!!! keep doing what your doing Preach, pure gold!!!

[@DarkeFyreBeast]

Yes, finally someone who says use CLCret who doesnt call me a noob!

[@Zodiacman16]

Erm, you buy them from the Auction House and then equip them? They are passive you know, you don't activate them.

[@MrATFRaptor01]

never use insight - unless the tank dies and you have to cover it for a bit or you are in a weird position of off-tanking. If you are running out of mana you are doing 1 of 3 things. 1) Not using Judgement off CD 2) Hard casting exorcism 3) Not using Divine Please on CD (rotation filler)

[@EpikKentaro]

If you play ret pally and work on your healing after finishing the ret tree you almost never die :P

[@vladpiclisan]

Most awesome video!

[@KevinvanBoven]

Preach should be the only one with a License to Kill! He rolls like a total boss!

[@PurpleRain123453]

Bro. You completely forgot Seal of Insight. Without it, I have NO MANA and I don't have the room for intellect. What do?

[@whoopla1095]

I remember him saying "31 classes done" Then i realized druids with feral being dps and tank. This is the wrong [place to comment but it popped in my head and thought i should share with the world

[@TZamBAL]

Thanks Preach as always your guide helped alot.

[@FixYoSelf]

You never put the macros down!

[@Zodiacman16]

He is using either Bartender or Dominos. I personally use Dominos, because it is easier to set up.

[@CrunchyBrush]

how the hell can you afford to have everything reforged??, i have a lvl 77 ret pali and the most amount of gold i have had is about 3200, really crap i know.

[@eddymccorry]

you need to keep judgement up more, you only use insight for healing

[@Hailwood6]

best guides out there for wow, bar none ballers :)

[@hellfirepaladin]

yes, that is what i do for my paladin. its okay to be a lil over but try not to be also.

[@Zodiacman16]

If having one of the Seals up takes you up to 26 expertise, then yes.

[@Ese1Pac]

haha every time i hear the music in the opening i always sing to myself "wanna be a baller, shot caller" :p damn Lil' Troy

[@pistolpete1605]

thanks for the tip might give it a try

[@Zodiacman16]

You should probably be specific, he has a lot of addons there. :P

[@finnersz]

is it really? if it's there why would you not use it. there's no disadvantage to it as long as you only use it as a guide and change your rotation for aoe and slightly when you're bursting.

[@Blindingsun]

what about a ret pvp guide? =D

[@praill]

Fix your macro, put zealotry in there and inquistion immediately after, more effective use of HP

[@SeanConneZombie]

at 22:07, the answer is yes to Skyrim

[@Wshabel]

Casting Exo is ok if that DK pops Lichborne ;)

[@Allzthedevil]

Blizzard spent alot to put their Mists trailer on every video I have watched in the last hour xD

[@KuSQ3N]

ye ofc

[@LeeTheReviewer]

Nah. His gear was good for the day. If you look at the date, he is on Nov 2011, so it was some of the best stuff you could get before raiding.

[@Aaron22734]

Yes

[@danbill9165]

Still. A good video

[@DrEnterJackari]

No, it only gives you 10 expertise not expertise rating. To get 26 expertise rating you need around 480 expertise. That glyph is really misleading

[@EdilarinProducts]

yes

[@joenbrad1]

yep, no point wasting stats on extra expertise when seal of truth will get it up to the magic 26 :)

[@demon__4399]

awesome

[@OMFGcataFAN1]

im the only one turning my sound down for the start of the vid ?

[@legendBrett]

your good to go, at least for my guild your good enough.

[@Jones21101]

you the man preach

[@archange156]

@songher08 Yes

[@roopikks]

Whaat, he is having 25 expertise, and using the seal of truth glyph, that means 35 exp, not even hitcpped

[@macintosh079]

You're ready to do normal if you can do 21k So yes

[@preetyflyforawifi]

reads title, retribution paladin BASIC dps guide PART 1, looks at video length, 27 min, basic? part 1? tl;dw

[@asambi69]

Expertise is pretty worthless tbh, as an advanced player you 'should' always be behind the boss when possiable,this means no parries which in turns makes exp worth 50% less and secondly ret pallies are maybe 60-70% spell dmg which again reduces the worth of expertise. I personally run 13 exp 10 of which is from the glyph and i have increased by dps by over 3k.

[@Aaron22734]

Grammar Police inbound

[@ryangerharz6722]

Good Vid man, thanks!

[@hellfirepaladin]

lolz no it gives you the rating. with seal of truth off i am 16 exp. with it on i am 26 exp. read up on the glyph.

[@Vikarudy]

No, because 3 is bigger, than 2.

[@KuSQ3N]

ret paladins are the only class who req only little skill on t he rotaiotn in pve

[@joenbrad1]

get 4 set, the bonus will boost your DAMAGE a F**ton

[@TheTigerYumYums]

Arcane Mage... Derp.

[@Zodiacman16]

He isn't experienced in PvP, you won't see any PvP guides from him. Only PvE guides. If you're looking for a PvP guide, check out these 2: /watch?v=UH0TLViWF0o /watch?v=6cu2zWwM17o I will probably release a PvP guide of my own once I get a half decent video editor. >.>

[@kenybadi]

finally!

[@lloyd011721]

hunters say hi....

[@GuyFromInternet00]

Wow... i have never seen a comment section die like this :O no comment for the last 8 months wtf :S

[@vampiricHaru]

I love this guy! LOL

[@lordnereuso]

Crusider Strake. LOL

[@PI2OPHECYownz]

Yeup :)

[@Zodiacman16]

Lol I agree that PvP requires more skill than PvP, but you just can't help some people. :P

[@Valaneskie]

Hahaha...Guys be trolling Preach ! Smack them upside the head bro!

[@TommyTucker0]

:)

[@Zodiacman16]

PvP requires more skill than PvE* >.>
