Hey Khor, I know allot of retribution paladins that hate the new high rng damage playstyle the ret has now, I have a talent spec that takes out high rng damage and brings back high survivability and a stable output of nice damage. This build is only ment for lvl85 though, since our burst damage compared to other players hp is really high at lvl80.
If you would like me to share it with you e-mail me.

Thanks for all the info and ret updates. Hopefully we won’t be out dps’d as much as we are now at 80 as when we hit 85. Here is a site/page for new holy. http://www.wow-pro.com/class_guides/newpaladin

I don’t know if your FCFS takes threat into consideration. But I have had problems since 4.0 with stack to 5 then AW. Maybe its bad tanks, maybe its just threat is designed to be more of an issue now. For me, getting to 3 HP popping Zealotry CS>TV until Zealotry fades, then hitting AW seems to give tanks enough head start for me not to pull threat. It might not be the highest rotation, but its better than dead Ret…. lol

I really appreciate the guides!
As a note to your final point, until you have made prot and/or holy guides, could you please provide some sites you might recommend as good guides? Maybe a link paghe on your site? Please?

So to sum it up, did ret get nerfed again?
And given the same gears and playing skills, will ret be out dps by warriors and DKs?

If you can get it to 1.5 (lol) go for it, but since it’s impossible to get that low with gear, get to 3s + 2 times your latency (including raid buffs), and get crit, which is far more valuable than mastery and more valuable than haste after your soft cap (haste still beats mastery at this point though).

Let me rephrase my question. Should I aim to reforge/enchant my CS to the lowest as possible such as to 2sec or less or would those extra Haste be a waste?
