so, i really can't wait to get on again and see how this is working now, but from what i'm reading on the beta forums Blizz did a hotfix to cause JotW to return 20% max mana to the casting pally in addition to the replenishment effect... this is absolutely amazing to me and much more than really expected. as much move as we're seeing towards holy and prot and now this for Ret, i really am starting to beleive that blizz was serious when they said they want every spec of every class to be fun to play... certainly all 3 pally specs are looking like they'll be a ton of fun and much more interactive than they are in BC. now i'm just curious if the current reduced damage from judgements is permanent or just playing with numbers. even as it is though, assuming the other classes aren't tuned way past us in dps, i'm very happy with what i see.
one last thing i'd love to see, but might be more than is realistic for this Xpac would be for Holy pallies to be encouraged to melee more for group benefit and even to somehow strengthen their ability to heal. that would feel much more like he holy pally i thought i was making 3 years ago... they've done a lot for holy pallies so far though so i'll be content if this doesn't happen.
