Is there a guide for ret pally pvp?

I use conflict and strife against any double dps 2s. Visions major against most dps/healer. Sadly tho ya, rng generally is the winner of ret vs ret games because visions proc can just carry a game. Also ret/rdruid is a flat better comp in 2s than ret/mw

Iā€™ll try vision on my next queue session, I just didnt play it enough in arenas yet

Ya in 2s as ret healer I p much always run blade of wrath/zeal. Depending on the other comp I donā€™t run sanc all the time either. Sometimes the utility slow from law and order will be more important.

Yup, against dh rdruid or dh shaman iā€™ll unbound freedom ditching sanc just to try to win before he ooms my healerā€™s mana.

Against disc I like to play crusade zeal blade and law and order.

Interesting that you solely play zeal and blade. I tend to use it only against disc and hpal and es, how against mw rdruid.

Against arms I tend to go law and order if its not rdruid and zeal, blade

I like conflict major vs rogue for the extra versa and to keep uptime when they run away spamming the damn knife

26

Against rdruid/dh I run crusade/es/hammer of wrath/cavalier and quite literally just w key rdruid all game.

Against mws I rarely hit them and just train dps which is usually warrior. I also run rep most games cause I donā€™t really like training healers unless I have to.

Yeah, i pretty much do the same, except some good druid just make me unable to play the game.

Iā€™ve legit got a game where the rdruid was playing max range rotated x3 clone, x3 root and forced me to try to sit on dh and everytime i was trying to jump on rdruid he just imprison or aoe stun me every single time. Most tilted game iā€™ve played.

But I tend to try to kill healers most of the time

Ret life vs dh/rdruid we all know the struggle

Yeah Iā€™ve noticed for me at higher mmr last season killing healers other than hpalla wasnā€™t really a thing I could do, and so far itā€™s translated mostly into this season.
Against dh/rdruid Iā€™ve also been known to bubble war stomp but thatā€™s usually me securing the kill. Although I will also say that against frost mage/rdruid I run at druid and run blade of wrath for the extra physical dam and more uptime on slow.
