It’s no secret that paladins struggle with mobility while other classes seem to have tons of tools in their arsenal to stick to the target. I believe the fix would be to buff wings so that it teleports you to your target, max distance should be 30 yards. Additionally I think wings should receive a 20% damage and healing buff
Don’t think that enough of a buff if I’m being honest.

Instead of a teleport have it act sort of like a charge while active. Even have it act like priest void form where the button actually changes to another button while void form is active.
1st press WING MODE! ACTIVATE!
2nd press CHARRRRRGE!!!
bonus points if you fly over the ground about 1-2 ft above it like a DBZ character, head first.
Yeah that would be cool, playing Ret as it is now in PvP feels like LITERALLY slavery. Something must be done

I really don’t think wings need a buff for Prot or Holy at all. It already is very strong throughput. Issue when it comes to ret imo, is that it would be nice to see more out of them outside of wings. Than again I haven’t touched ret this expansion.
At least we got a conduit that increases steed. Paladins just were never quick on their feet, I got used to it and accepted it a long time ago heh.
Nerf wings buff sustained damage instead
I can’t believe you actually typed something this ludicrous out and then posted it, this is pretty wild
Why not just have Wings insta-kill anyone the paladin deems unnecessary and win you the game…wings are fine the way they are imo maybe reduce the crit but otherwise its fine.
Ret needs a survivability boost mores than a re-work of wings. The problem with ret compared to other melee dps classes is that it has just one (very bad) escape/peel ability in the form of Divine Steed and effectively just two damage mitigation abilities: bubble/BoP and Shield of Vengeance. And since both of the damage mitigation abilities have long cooldowns, you are a sitting duck the vast majority of the time (especially to rdps against whom you cannot generate holy power to heal yourself). We have essentially no passive damage mitigation, and I think we are the ONLY melee dps class to suffer from this problem. It’s why any opposing comp with half a brain will make us burn our bubble on an opening round of cds, and then blow us up in seconds thereafter.
Thats a hard no.
Use your shield and scoot your butt along on your steed like every other OP ret does.
