Art of War should 100% be its wrath version, considering shamans got their WoTLK Maelstrom Weapon it feels like a kick in the balls tbh. I think blizz is scared of a SoD preg build lol

Exorcist and Art of war needs to be baseline for pally to actually feel better. Every other spec has way more rune freedom than paladin

Please tell me about phase 3 pvp talents and items such as

I feel like the suggested changes to paladins only brings them closer to retail class-design. Every1 gets a version of every utility but with different animations. I personally fear that SoD is moving away from classic and more into retail in terms of class-design. I dislike this because each class doesn´t fit into a nieche anymore. For me personally this ruins class fantasy, class immersion and to be honest, it just gets really lackluster. I think SoD went to hard with the runes. 2-3 rune-slots total would´ve been enough. Those 2-3 rune-slots should´ve just slightly added viability or "option". Paladins with crusader-strike and rebuke would´ve been enough. They shouldn´t be able to 1v1 a warrior without having to blow big defensive CDs since warriors only have dmg as their utility while paladins have healing. Do let me know if you agree with this take or not. I think it would´ve been more similar to classic era than it is now, but then again, I never asked for MAJOR changes, just minor changes to classes.

Adding anything in terms of abilities is gonna be a step towards retail I think. Very unlikely they add any original abilities not from future expansions right. Can't make everyone happy. Personally I'd like no runes and just new items/raids. Rebuke would be nice though in terms of balance hahaha.

@@PeacebladeTV I suppose I look at it like this. Class design can be either classic era with a sprinkle of wrath classic or retail with a sprinkle of classic era. I'm with you on the part where I'd much rather see new items n stuff but I don't mind 1-2 new abilities too just to make e.g. Paladins less memey. I think it's slowly moving towards the latter in terms of class design. Enjoy your content, keep it up:)

Rune System is terrible for paladin, we got have 50% of our runes baseline and still be a mid tier.
