Just wanted to let you guys know I made a few updates to existing pages here on RetributionPaladins.com. I went ahead an updated the Best in Slot Ret Paladin gear lists, since those seem to be pretty concrete at the current time. I do expect this to change a bit before it is all said [...]

Gear up, sharpen your blades, and be prepared for more ICC content! The Plagueworks is being launched today. In addition to the Lower Spire content we have been battling for over a month now, we now have three new bosses to take down. I will have more info on these bosses later on this week [...]

WTF Threat?
December 29, 2009 By 9 Comments
Last night I went on a guild alt ToC normal 10-man run. I was hoping to fill an extra gear hole with a few still needed upgrades. During the run, though, I noticed some serious threat spikes. What is baffling me though, is that I was pulling threat without any warning from Omen. Usually, when [...]
Top 7 Ret Paladin Trinkets
December 28, 2009 By 8 Comments
DPS Trinkets for the Ret Pally It’s 10:33 PM and I have been attempting to PUG my way into some Emblems of Triumph for those final gear upgrades. I stare with complete boredom at the unimpressive [Mark of Supremacy], gawking at the useless +hit rating, thinking my 10.5% +hit is already 2.5% above the Ret Paladin [...]
Retribution Paladin Ice Crown Raiding: Part I
December 22, 2009 By 11 Comments
Last week, I got my first taste of Icecrown raiding. I managed to squeeze into one of our guild 10-man raids, and was a little leary because I was considerably undergeared compared to my other guildmates. Brandishing level 226 gear for the most part, I knew I’d have my work cut out for me. Now, [...]

Raiding Frustration & Ret Pally Withdrawal
September 6, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Recently, my wife’s work has kept me from raiding on our guild’s set raid days. She gets home in time for me to log on about an hour after raid start, at which point is too late. The times that I have been able to raid, I have been needed as a healer, so I [...]
Retribution Paladin PvE Guide
September 5, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Playing as a Retribution Paladin in the PvE world far exceeds my expectations of most other classes. Our burst damage is still top notch, and we can just about nuke any non-dungeon mob in a couple hits. The down time for our class is next to nothing thanks to a couple very efficient and optimal [...]
Ret Pally – Gems
August 7, 2009 By 98 Comments
Retribution Paladin Gems are current as of Cataclysm, Patch 4.0, Patch 4.0.6 and Patch 4.1. The Retribution Paladin gem priorities are pretty much the same in Cataclysm. With the new stat changes, Ret Paladins will be wanting to gem pure strength. Ignore the socket bonuses, strength will provide the greatest DPS gain, even surpassing hit [...]
