Enchants for Retribution Paladins in PvP will not be much different than that of PvE. The idea is to focus on attack power and crit, possibly hit if necessary. The only exceptions are on the helm and shoulders, where resilience can be used. I emphasize can, because it is a topic of discussion whether or not the resilience or pure DPS enchants should be used there. It really depends on how much resilience you are currently rocking!
Retribution Paladin PvP Enchants
- Head: [Arcanum of Torment] or [Arcanum of Triumph]
- Shoulders: [Greater Inscription of the Axe] or [Inscription of Triumph] or
- Chest: Enchant Chest – Powerful Stats or [Enchant Chest - Exceptional Resilience]
- Cloak: Enchant Cloak – Major Agility
- Bracers: Enchant Bracers – Greater Assault
- Hands: Enchant Gloves – Crusher
- Legs: [Icescale Leg Armor]
- Feet: Enchant Boots – Icewalker / Enchant Boots – Greater Assault
- Weapon: Enchant Weapon – Berserking
Using the resilience head and shoulders enchant is probably a decent option if you are lacking on resilience, or are short of your goal resilience. Otherwise, it may be safe to go ahead with the DPS enchants.
there are attack power/resillience enchants for helm and shoulders, they are what i prefer to use.

are the best PVP enchants I think, as Berlon said.
You guys are definitely right. Thanks for the heads up! I linked the +stam/+res enchants by mistake, which really does absolutely nothing for us. I know there are still a few stamina battleground advocates out there, but AP is really the best way to go! Thanks again Berlon and Nagasaky!
Is Berserking a good idea? Players don’t have something like an aggro table (some players I mean) although 5% is not that much of armor to lose.
Hey,
Also, if someone is lacking in survivability there’s a nice leg enchant for that – http://www.wowhead.com/item=44963 – 40 Resilience and 28 stamina can boost you nicely, especially when you don’t have too many pvp pieces. Also afaik those aren’t very expensive since those are pvp enchants.
Cheers,

Im just wondering whats the armor set and the wep the pally on the picture has. Thanks
Arena Season 7 set, I believe.
I don’t think Berserker is a good idea, i never used it, when once i had it on, changed soon after
Massacre is the pvp weapon enchant for me.
I rely on trinkets with /use, and enchants that work all the time.
If u wanna burst down a healer, or any other enemy, and berserk does not proc, its just a waste. Ret pvp depends on the def/offensive circle, defensive when wrath is on cd, highly offensive when wrath is out. Chance on hit enchants, especially one that gives so much ap, can ruin this all, simply not reliable enough.
