[@drewwill13]

Nice Video bro! Thx

[@alesinfootball]

My Ret Paladin likes and appreciate this whole video, awesome guide mate, I did follow all talents and feeling OP already at level 50 on official with all this amazing guide, cheers Master Paladin🔥👌🏻

[@RReapermann]

ty vm it helped alot, had serious mana problem, now i forget its even there XD

/cast !Exorcism instead of the stopcasting macro to prevent triggering the gcd

[@JH-fd9xt]

This guy gets it.

[@davidbrathen2162]

Hey mate ! Thansk for good information, keep up the good work. What specc do you recommend if you are lvling in a 5 man grp ? questing and dung quest.

[@bendavies2613]

Great guide but what is the rotation pre level 60? I'm 48 and missing a fair few abilities listed, cheers

[@jakoba2356]

Nice video! Could you please do an Enhancement shaman levelling guide next for fresh server?

[@Ddock8527]

Really would love to see you make a video of AOE leveling 1 to 80 builds for Paladins :)

[@wowvidz030]

You mentioned that spell power scales off attack power in WotLK. But the talent only scales off strength right? Or is there another system I'm unaware off?

[@js117595productions]

How hard would it be to get arcanite ripper don’t we have a weekly lock out plus other rets that want the weapon?

[@timrichardson2599]

Great video, I couldn’t find the weapon progression video/link. Can anyone help me out?

[@NintendoNewsCentral]

So how would I level holy pala then? Do I just spam dungeons? Do I run ret until I get to a certain lvl and unlock something that makes it worth finishing as holy?

[@josephwhite1098]

I have subscribed, I don't can't find the Sub Trailer? Weapon list?

[@irfanhekimoglu2294]

12:35 - most of the time i am not gonna use consecration. *Proceeds to use consecration* 😂. Just kidding thanks for the guide.

[@Kit-Alpha]

Do you happen to have leveling guide for 1-80? For someone trying to level a Paladin for the first time, a 70-80 doesn't really help. Thanks!

[@SubtleSlacker]

Does sp scale with ap? Or just with str?

[@KoniecPsot]

super i play today in new server 1 time palladyn for your guide

[@AndreiNkl]

Where is the weapon list? subscribed, but no link in video

[@Raeodor]

Are these talents for when leveling or already max lvl?

[@d0nskiess]

Hammer of righteousness is 100% worth it over command, on mega pulls it proccs seal of light on every target hit which makes you invincible. Also the three points for divine sac are super low value, it’s more of a raiding talent. I would definitely want to max reckoning as 5 pts let’s it procc off blocks

[@a.x.w]

Also, Seal of Command is best used with a slow weapon, not a fast one. This is because it proccs off of abilities like judgement and not just your white swings.

[@Boosticuffs]

and Also because you can already use seal of the righteous which means the only gains are incremental improvements over that seal.

[@Nunubuffs]

@d0nksiesss Could you link a talent tree that you would recommend for dungeon spam lvlling on WOTLK? I am looking to go prot paladin and want to do mass amounts of AoE whilst also being tanky. Not really looking to do open world questing much, atleast until 70

[@thomaslangley9404]

Hi, good vid. Where's the weapon chart?

[@JoseMay90]

I will be playing in a fresh server HOWEVER, I only play holy (not use to play ret). Can I lvl up as ret and switch to holy when I get to Northrend? If I want to lvl up really quick, I guess farming dungs is not very efficient. Right?

[@speakerboxxx_4379]

You should

[@KarmaKnight86]

@Metagoblin what's your stopcast macro for exorcism? I can't get one to actually stop the cast. please and thank you

[@Shaabhekh]

Can anyone verify if Ret/Arms still want the slowest weapons possible or has WotLK done away with that aspect and now we focus ons the DPS of a weapon? TiA

[@Darkgemini1990]

Can anyone answer this question please, if I have a lvl 70 (horde) character on firemaw pvp, when the pre patch hits can I make a deathknight straight away on firemaw (alliance) or do I have to have a lvl 55 (alliance) character to create this? Please reply to confirm.

[@Kurathis552]

You don't need a 55 character anymore - you can just make one.

[@elevlol5863]

So the weapon progess list thingy was just fake news or have anyone been able to locate that now?

[@harbs_cantina]

What professions are good for Paladins?

[@Matthaeus8]

A guide needs to be made for actual new players. I never touched WoW growing up. Being dragged into playing with friends on a boost pally. I have no idea what I'm doing, and watching these videos feels like im trying to learn a new language. Reading abilities and lining them up in the rotations of guides doesn't show me how to pull mobs and manage cds or anything. Just videos catering for people who already played for 10 years already

[@wooptidoo3525]

My advice would be to level a character from scratch, and learn the class bit by bit as you are leveling.. Simply playing the game, will help make sense of a lot more, and its definately harder when you jump straight to a lvl70 with 0 prior WoW experience

[@deleefella]

I'm currently in the same situation as yourself, started a pally today to duo-play with a friend, slow and steady seems like the better route than most "recommended" options you get from videos on youtube, which is mostly for the players returning to WoW and not brand spanking new players like you or i. If you're interested in playing as part of a new-player group, reply and let me know we can go through it together, as my group is brand new to WoW too.

[@Mr.Sr.Jr.]

If you're looking for a decent talent guide don't look here. Not only does he choose poorly when it comes to talents and general thinking about talents but he also doesn't know the name of some of the talents. Lol

[@dale1515]

​@@deleefella I am exactly same as you never played growing up but started this week in wrath and struggling to learn. Which server are you on?

[@rigorob4711]

Bro complaining about a good guide on a mmo. How bout you learn to play through a character to get a better understanding of the game goofy

Is it me or do you only have judgement until level 50 or something. Trying to level a pala but i only have judgement and auto attack lmao. Other classes get a lot more abillities in the beginning.

[@zsolthernadi4665]

Prob im stupid but why did you not suggest for new players hammer of wrath and the mana seal for total noobs like me. Followed this guide and it was a pain in the ass and then checked vasic wowhead rotation tips and its smooth af i dont get it

[@Huhgundai399]

Why not mention why holy spec is off the table? And you’re talking about getting a trinket? I’m convinced the people in the comments praising what a good guide this is are just bot accounts everytime I start a video by this guy in disappointed within the first 5 minutes it never fails

[@thomasquinn3712]

When I lvld ret in wrath I also had sacred shield, was so op with fol and art of war procs. 100% hot from fol.

[@charlescook1607]

How do you change your talents? Been so long I can’t remember.

[@zachhawkins5005]

At the class trainer. You can reset talents or buy dual spec for 1kg

[@ohRehab]

Idk what to chose and how paladín works , wich is the most op way? healer , tank or dps , im new in wow

As complete newbie. Should I level solo or go for dungeons?

I would do a blend, Dungeons can be really fun, and is also a fun part of the game. Also meeting new people, grouping up etc is awesome!

TAKE PARRY ladies and gents. parry reeduces the timer of your swing increasing your dps by a lot over time.

[@Dadkvar]

I just got on my Paladin after the Wrath pre patch update He's only level 43 as I main a Shaman and I must say, they really dumbed the paladin down for Wrath. REALLY DUMBED IT DOWN Compared to playing a Shaman, this class is like putting your car on auto pilot and winning the Grand Prix. At level 43, my rotation is Auto attack and judge every 8 seconds... bubble and heal if I get in trouble... Thats it At higher levels I am glad that I might have two more buttons to push. LMAO

[@felipepenadarrigrandi2155]

oh men! how can i have an interface like that :(

[@Schmankman91]

You should ALWAYS put time stamps

[@MetaGoblin]

I can't anymore KZbin won't let me some unexplained reason 😭

[@MetaGoblin]

ignore that holy shit after a year of waiting youtube have fixed their shit and i can do them again :)

[@Mr.Sr.Jr.]

Skipping the talent that gives you 2% total damage per point and instead choosing a talent that only gives you 2% two-handed weapon damage per point seems like a miss play...

[@ayo1149]

5:41 Judgement doesn't cleave with Seal of Command bro wtf you talking about

[@tugger1231]

Mentions Ret/Prot. but I always level and play Holy... No mention at all?

[@alihorda]

healers are bad for leveling, except if you spam dungeons

[@BigBodyBiggolo]

Exactly what ^najas adam^ said, you cant kill mobs or do solo quests as most healers, paladin holy might be able to if you have full heirlooms and keep up with your gear, but unless you set out to do it just for the hell of it, you wont enjoy holy leveling unless spamming dungeons or group quests

[@Schmankman91]

You did not understand the video

[@tugger1231]

@@alihorda I usually pull 4-5 mobs not too bad. holy damage is pretty good w/ 1200 spellpower.
