Questions about BlessingsFollow

Im currently new to playing World of Warcraft and playing a Protection Pally and just have a quick question on which blessings are better. Currently im level 37 and so is my wife ( Shadow Priest ). For my wife which blessing do you thing would be more beneficial, Blessing of Wisdom or Blessing of Kings.

Also for instances ( and later on raids ) for a protection tank who is tanking, would it be better to place on myself, Blessing of Sancuary or Blessing of Light? ( Or another one that im forgetting )

Thanks for your time.

As for right now... I would say Blessing of Wisdom would probably be the better blessing to place on the SP. More mana regen means less downtime and kings won't offer much.


For later instances and raids, it comes down to what do you need more:

If you are finding yourself mana-starved, then you should be putting on Blessing of Wisdom.

If you are finding that you don't have enough threat, then you should be putting on Blessing of Sanctuary.

If you are fine on both areas, then you should be using Blessing of Kings.

You wouldn't be putting Blessing of Light on yourself. Blessing of Light only works on Paladin healers, so unless you have a Paladin healer, it's not going to work. If you do have a Paladin healer, work that out with the other Paladin who's going to give what.

Only through experience are you going to see which one will be best in which situation. Once you hit outlands it will be more apparent, before then just run Blessing of Wisdom so that you have less down time between fights.

like capjack said, playing around with what works for you is the best idea. beyond that a quick overview of your blessings:

Blessing of wisdom - deinitely the blessing to give your non-pally healers and a good second blessing for your mana based dps. if your dps is skilled at managing their own aggro this should be their primary blessing.

blessing of kings - this is a good blessing for your non-spell casting dps and a good second blesing for your healers. also a good blessing for you to boost your stam by 10%.

blessing of might - depending on your dps they might prefer this over kings.

blessing of salvation - this is the best blessing for most dps'ers. on my ret pally this is probably my fav blessing tied with BoM depending on the skill of my tank. if you are unsure of your threat generation or your dps's skills this is what you should be giving them.

blessing of sanctuary - this is another good blessing to help with threat generation. capjack already mentioned this one.

blessing of light isn't one that you as a prot should need to worry about. if your pally healer needs the extra healing he'll give it to you, if not he won't.

as a ret and a holy pally, the main thing i reccomend is to give all dps salv. saves the healer mana from not needing to heal all the dps as much, and as dps it saves me a repair bill.

um, when just questing with the shadow priest i'd give both of you BOW for less downtime.
