Are Ret Paladins as bad as people say?

Meh… The flipside to that is that they were almost impossible to kill.

I leveled a ret in vanilla and maybe I’m crazy, but I didn’t mind it. And that was after I leveled a rogue and a shaman.

Also, it’s Seal of Casino.

You’re right about afk auto. But some people actually do enjoy that play style rather than spamming sinister then combo or whatever class you’re playing. Also they don’t have any down time. No eating, drinking, no real threat of death, and can find group for anything easily.

Those are all protection pallys

This is 100% false… First, Ashkandi is definitely a Hunter Weapon on the priority scale. Second, Arms warriors are not getting priority over a Ret Paladin. If you are a warrior raiding as Arms you are worse than a Ret Paladin because you are putting out basically the same DPS without providing blessings or bubbles. If you arent Fury in Classic raiding you’re just straight wrong.

If you are in a guild with friends, they can be a lot of fun. If you are with people that don’t understand where rets strengths lie then they are just going to want you to heal and you will be disappointed.

I mean paladins can only be alliance, so…of course they’re gonna be bad.
