Shadowlands Protection Paladin Class Changes, Covenant Abilities & Legendaries (Early Look)

[@philhayes1420]

This does look really fun and as someone who plays a Prot Pala currently im pretty excited for it. Having put up with being the least desirable spec tank throughout pretty much all of bfa this will hopefully be our chance to shine. Thank you

Probably my new main, divine toll BiS

I'm quite happy with the changes on the Nightfae ability, because now you only have to think about it every 30 seconds instead of every 15, which is a much better pace i.m.o. I'm torn between going Nightfae and Kyrian, because the added mobility that the Nightfae give is so good for such an immobile class. I guess blizz is achieving what they want: making it a difficult decision! Excited for this expansion.

I'm getting the feeling that unprooning is benefiting hybrids much more then pure classes. I'm curious to see your preview of the hunter or rogue.

Monk next?

[@copycat5062]

I read that Allied Races will not need Exalted rept anymore only an achivment, is that right?? because i want to make a Zandalar Troll Paladin, they look very nice and masive!!

[@VirtueofSin]

Divine Toll doesn't work with First Avenger currently.

Judgement not providing Holy Power is intentional, read the change notes from the devs when the change was introduced.

[@SelwenG]

Seems I missed that one, ty!

[@magnuskno]

@@SelwenG You're welcome! BTW, I think the "50% chance to reset your Avengers Shield after use" legendary will also be very popular with Protection Paladins.

I hate this change it lowers the mitigation uptime

[@ziros22]

I don't get how this is different from Legion and BFA. I tanked prot pally in both those and Shadowlands beta and it's been the same shit

[@MatheusSouza-pf2kv]

blessing of seasons now just buff an ally? this was in all party doesn't it?

[@SelwenG]

Yea it was all in party/raid before like auras but they change it to work as blessing since it was a bit too powerful.

[@d9nx239]

lol everyone plays blood elves for everything

[@MrCleates]

I know - I hate it. Playing on the Horde, my orc warrior is often surrounded by these skinny and emaciated narcissistic barbies. The female ones are just as bad, too ;)

[@d9nx239]

@@MrCleates Both are female haha. One just have better hair.

[@ALDAVINUR]

no movement. that's why i wont play a pally.

[@Makalon102]

You can use talent for 2 charges and conduit also increases it by %100
