ZA is going to make us all look like bloody totem poles again, I was really enjoying the whole 'crystal robots and demonic stuff' designs of SSC/TK. Oh well.
For Ret/Prot Paladins, 2.3 is Christmas come early. On the PTR she crits hard, swings hard, and is capable of some serious burst damage. Of course, Im a Blood Elf Paladin so I get Seal of Blood, which has become seriously strong with the improvements to Vengeance and the increased crit chance.
Ive tried out both Prot/Ret and Ret/Prot builds so far, and to be honest I couldnt be happier. The Paladins whining about Shamans getting a spelldmg talent in a melee tree; listen up fellas, they are a DPS focused hybrid. They cant tank, we can. It's only fair they have superior DPS talents to us, and besides, they badly needed it as anyone in BT/Hyjal will tell you.
It's all good; now I just want them to unify Toughness and Anticipation into a single talent and I'll slap a big 'fixed' sticker on the Prot tree ^^
