Hpal on PTR?

[Shraar-3307272 (Shraar)]

My understanding is that it’s actually in a very good spot right now in terms of power.

The new tier set has enabled a playstyle where you only use your strongest spells, namely Holy Light and Infused Flashes of Light, and this results in more healing while also spending less mana than the regular build.

To match this, they buffed Holy Shock like CRAZY (+50%) and it’s still inferior to the no HS build in terms of raw healing. Huge buff though.

Before this, they also buffed their damage as well.

Overall, Hpal is looking really solid right now if you ask me.

Edit:

PALADIN

• Holy
  • Developers’ notes: We are happy with the rotational impact of the Venomous Abyss class set for Holy Paladin, but it has also caused the specialization to be more mana efficient than intended. We are adding an effect that increases the mana cost of Holy Light to the set bonus and also increasing Holy Paladin’s overall output alongside this adjustment to compensate for this change. We will keep a watchful eye on where gameplay lands from here and make further adjustments if necessary. Thank you for your ongoing feedback!
  • The Venomous Abyss 4-set bonus – Now additionally increases Holy Light’s mana cost by 60%.
  • All healing increased by 5%.

I read this after

I don’t know how this affects them, I’ll probably just to the usual way of playing Holy Paladin because I liked it and forget about the no-HS build.
