The Azerite Trait Glimmer of Light moves to a space in the Level 50 Talent row, competing with powerful existing options such as Beacon of Faith. While Holy Paladins’ Aura Talent row has been replaced by the class-wide Aura bar, Aura Mastery continues to give Holy Paladins the unique ability to give any Aura a special empowerment.
Seriously just delete this mechanic, nobody wants it, nobody wants it to “compete” with anything.

It feels like Paladins are not allowed to move away from Legion-BfA design space while a lot of the other classes are getting inspiration from legendary expansions like Wrath, BC, and MoP.
Feels bad, man.

Yeah, I really like Glimmer too, pretty sure a lot of us do.
Making it compete with other relevant talents like Beacon of Faith makes sense. It’s actually beacon of faith which I’m not a fan off, very boring set and forget spell. Glimmer seems like a nice play-stile alternative to have there for those who like to have some more stuff to manage.
I like that change.

I like Glimmer as well. That, the Kyrian multi holy shock spell and holy power have me really excited for SL.

i enjoy glimmer but also miss tank healing. I hope we have some play style choices that let us focus on raid healing with glimmer or to focus on tank healing
I don’t love glimmer, but I don’t hate it. Having it be an option is completely cool with me as long as other builds can compete or outperform it depending on what content you are doing.

I’m stoked glimmer is staying. I thought with the holy shock everyone that it would be gone for sure.
As for preferring the uldir play style it still works to this day you can play it and do fine. You won’t be in any superb high end guilds but could comfortably get cutting edge or world top couple of hundred no problem.
Not everyone has to copy method and limit believe it or not.
Glimmer is basically why I main a holy pally in bfa today, so I’m a little biased on pro-glimmer

It’d be nice (but probably super OP) if they let the aoe holy shock covenant ability ignore the target cap on glimmer. Not something that’d be gamebreaking, but I can see it being slightly annoying not having your glimmers end up on the targets you want after using it. Assuming taking glimmer and using it will stick glimmer to begin with.
seems like a really sensible row setup, choose a talent to determine how your healing cleaves on to the rest of your group.
Would be a bit of a tough balance to strike since glimmer has offensive uses the beacons don’t, but I’d much prefer to see blizzard try to present other viable alternatives to glimmer rather than just taking it out.
I like how strong glimmer is 
I was hoping they would integrate GoL into the mastery but making a talent isn’t so bad either.
I never healed on Paladin but when I switched to holy to see what it does I don’t even see this ability in the game now.
I use 3 stacks of Glimmer, Avenging Crusader, and Beacon of Virtue, so that’s going to kill my healing play style. Glimmer should be on a different level than Beacon of Virtue.
I wonder how strong Glimmer is as a talent in SL, since we won’t be able to stack it 3x.
