Blizzard: “We see that retribution paladins have started to disregard consecration, so we decided to re-design retribution’s mastery to include cleaving damage while standing on consecration. We also decided to remove blessed champian and blade of vengeance to help push paladins to maneuver to their consecration, as we want that to be the paladins main way to AoE.”
But it’s still used for NPC that casts consecration.
The boss fight in Dawn of the Infinite( as Horde), the one with the paladins, they have the updated visual.
I think it’s the same with the alliance paladins fight in BFA in the Troll city.
That’s part why I’m suggesting Light’s Hammer since it’s been, at least to my knowledge, a well liked visual effect, only it fell behind because of the mechanic of the spell.
