Give Hpal Shield of Vengeance

I mean it could use other logical changes.

But we know logic isn’t a thing that will happen.

so this would be a nice band aid.

k thanks.

Band-aid for what exactly? SOV won’t help mana efficiency. Hpal probably does just as much healing using the gcd to… well… heal. SOV doesn’t prevent you being a target.

Eh, I don’t like it BUT, some talent to make Divine Protection better or give you a 10% shield (That doesn’t explode) would be nice. It’s how all it takes is a half lazy limp swap with a full kidney and a 1600rogue team to get your BoP if your team isn’t on their p’s and q’s peeling you.

That’s why it’s perfect.

It makes no sense.

So it might actually happen right?

Well the alternative is HPal gets a 15% buff to Rapid Fire, so yes

Hpal doesn’t need anything besides big dam.

A judgement crit with wings up should do 200k.

Crusader strike should one shot static field totem.

Denounce should be insta cast 8 second cooldown baseline spell.

Can we have better mana management while we’re at it? Devotion Aura revert and Divine Favor revert too and I’ll accept your terms!

Kinda crazy how tanky that thing is, it’s usually a blade of justice + auto for me
(Which is crusader strike hehexd)

I just go ahead and pop a FV into it so I don’t have to spend an extra gcd in there

Why do holy paladins, even have a shield when there the squishiest healer

actually crazy that it doesnt

idk why hpal would need more defensives when denounce reduces outgoing damage by 150% (especially warriors)

Miss him already.

the hpal egirl alliance (spearheaded by bubble) took him down for knowing too much :sob:

do hpals really struggle with mana? i can heal for like 7-9 minutes without drinking vs anything and i don’t even use any of the mana talents. some of you just don’t heal efficiently

Yes

You’re using Blessing of Summer

Yes we do struggle, if you can’t cast FoL Procs then your mana just disappears. Losing mana like a MW pumping heals but only without the pumping. In 3’s it’s different if you’re able to use all your Procs before another HS.

Any healer your beating is either 1. Misweaver - 2. Healing x2 the amount of you - 3. Not using their mana efficiently - 4. Also a Hpally

Even if paladin was DECENT with mana retainment, It makes no sense to have nerfed Daybreak mana back, Holy Shock mana cost, and Blessing of Winter mana gained.

I’m not asking for a free 200k mana, the Holy Shock nerf being reverted would honestly suffice. 2.8% Base Mana is insane…

Very hot take, i think hpal and dragon metas are the best because they HAVE to go in to do damage/cc and that opens up windows for counterplay.

I also think rdruid/caster mw/hpriest metas are the worst, because staying 40 yds away and bombing heals is incredibly unfun for both sides.

bad hpals have bad mana management. there’s not much to it. not sure why you wrote up an essay. i guess you hitting your first ever 2400 from shuffle of all things made you feel like an expert on the subject

This is 3’s right? I don’t think two healers chasing eachother playing cat and mouse is particularly fun in shuffle.
