Been melee then ranged dps for a while and finding lack of motivation to play much…seeing I havent healed in a while and havent mained a pally maybe ever just more an alt and seeing a need for healers in game lately.
Would it be easy to pick up and learn to a point of quick growth?
Super easy class IMHO. AND you get to dps while healing!!
It does look to be pretty well set. Is it also a safe M+ choice? I know pally is great ST healing…has the aoe healing improoved or bout the same as its been?
We are actually no longer single target healers. In fact our single target healing has been nerfed pretty hard.
In raid situations we spec for Glimmer and raid heal while dpsing to generate Holy Power. In Dungeons many Paladins also use Glimmer and others use BoV which is pretty much AOE.
Both Flash of Light and Holy Light are almost never used anymore after the Infusion nerf.
I’d say Paladins are great spot healers but we neither excel at single target or AOE.
Oh dang been a while indeed since I touched it
No its not, holy paladin if you arent used to melee dps is easily the hardest healer to learn because you have to not only worry about everyone elses health, you now also have to worry about melee mechanics which in shadowlands there is alot of.
Playing a holy paladin in dungeon pugs is horrible and make you wanna quit the game. You better find some friends or a good guild. If you can get decent teammates its not bad at all.
