It’s the day after Patch 4.0.1 went live, and forums and sites like this one are on fire with angry Rets. I spent a good chunk of time last night testing everything out, gauging where we are on the DPS totem pole, and sinking myself into our very scattered DPS rotation. First, I will try [...]

Patch 4.0 is finally here! The version we are getting is Patch 4.0.1, and Retribution Paladins got their world flipped upside down. Gone is the ease of face rolling DPS, and in comes the era of Holy Power, with it’s cohort of reliant abilities. I am stoked, are you? This site is going to require [...]

Blizzard posted that there will be extended maintenance tomorrow. Looks like we will be playing 4.0 tomorrow night! Don’t forget to study up on our new Talents and Glyphs, both of which will change with the coming Patch 4.0. If you love the way your Ret Paladin functions now, kiss it goodbye. It’s a brand [...]
Ghostcrawler: Ret Was Broken
September 25, 2010 By 19 Comments
A recent post from Ghostcrawler leads off with, “Ret was broken.” I’ve been trying to wrap my mind around those three words since I first read them, and I am having a hard time seeing eye to eye with Blizzard on this one. I do agree with the mechanics not providing an appealing or challenging gameplay [...]

September 19, 2010 By 2 Comments
While this patch had a good amount of content in it, not much was done for us Rets. What was done was a pretty significant change. I am coming more nad more to the conclusion that we will truly be playing a different class come Cataclysm. Everything you thought you knew about Rets needs to [...]

Also, some sad news for our soloing adventures…Zul’Gurub (ZG) will be removed as a raid instance in Cata. In this most [...]
Ret Paladin Cataclysm Beta Build 12803
August 21, 2010 By 5 Comments
There are only 4 changes that affect Ret Paladins directly in this most recent Beta build. What is more interesting to me is the current Talent Calculator set-up for us. I have my thoughts, and I will share them after we go over the recent Beta changes. It would appear Blizz has already started to [...]
