Beta.

[reles]

Wotlk beta is so confusing! My prot pally had 14700ish health and now her health is jipped and her avoidance is crap and defense is crap. I guess that's normal? But am I gonna be squishy now? Damn talent tree aren't you suppose to improve our health? C'mon, pallies were shafted in the health department already. Haha health department

You're actually in the beta? God DAMN you're such a loser.

They took out crushing blows, so your defense rating being above 490 isn't -as- important. No real need to spec into Shield of the Templar yet as there's not enough talent points to make it viable (at 70 mind you), and whatever the name of the 51 point talent is just rocks.

Oh, fuck yeah Blessing of Sanctuary.

Yeah I went on my lock and ran Kara with a nicely geared paladin tank. He did about 800 dps...which at one point hit 3rd spot in dps (WHAT?!). All that spell damage is making us ever so powerful and pretty much up to par with the rest of the dpsers...yet we tank too. He had about 600 spell damage, which with my gear, that's about what I have too. But paladins are probably not going to worry about spell damage so much anymore because we can hold aggro with such ease with our new talents. I looked at his gear and avoidance and it's about the same as mine, his defense was about 460, so I don't feel so bad. I was just surprised at first. Now I won't be as reluctant to hit up a raid with my paladin because I know I won't be squishy.

By the way they got rid of blessing of salvation. Sad to see it go, it might help those other tanks. ;) 5 talents to spec into blessing of kings kind of sucks. I was having a hard time getting my health up to a decent number...ran a mgt before the patch came out and got that trinket I was glad I never had to run heroic mgt again despite how smoothly it went. But fuck! I'm down 1k health now. I guess that's what I get for gearing towards avoidance first...although a wise decision.
