Here is what we know about Retribution Paladins in Patch 4.3 so far. Most of this is coming from the PTRs, so it is always subject to change. Despite Retribution being known as a class that needs some tweaking, we still haven’t seen a ton of work done yet. Let’s take a look at what we have seen so far:
Retribution Paladin Patch 4.3 Changes
- Seal of Truth now scales from 13.5% of Attack Power, up from 9.65%. (MMO Champion 10/26/11)
- Seal of Truth, when Judged, now benefits from a multiplier of 20% per stack of Censure, up from 10%.
- Sanctified Retribution now increases the critical hit chance of Hammer of Wrath by 2/4/6%, down from 20/40/60%.
- Two-Handed Weapon Specialization (passive) now increases damage by 25%, up from 20%.
Most of the boosts to our DPS are small ones, which I see as making our DPS more competitive…not top of the charts, but more competitive.
The change to Sanctified Retribution is huge, and I think we are seeing the repercussions of a slightly overpowered PvP talent. Not a fan of the change, since it will drop DPS during Avenging Wrath, but it shouldn’t be overwhelmingly significant.
Retribution Paladin Patch 4.3 Tier 13
2-Piece Bonus – Your Judgement ability has a 50% chance to generate 1 Holy Power.
4-Piece Bonus –While Zealotry is active your abilities deal 12% more damage.
More RNG for our heavily dependent RNG DPS.
They actually changed the 2-pc bonus to 100% chance shortly after revealing the set bonuses
