The new Paladin PvP Talents from Patch 9.1, Luminescence and Judgments of the Pure, require Auras to function.
The problem is that those talents are unlocked before Paladins have acess to an Aura, meaning that they woun’t do anything at all for a short period!
Both PvP Talents unlock at level 20, but Crusader Aura (the first aura available) is unlocked only at level 21.
It is counterintuitive to have a “trap choice” that cannot function properly until later. The level 20 range is also important since new players may extensively play the game at this level, and those small bugs greatly undermine the overall experience.
Proposed Fixes:
1 - Crusader Aura is now available at level 20, matching when both pvp talents are unlocked.
Comment: No new spells are unlocked at level 20 for any Paladin spec. This change woun’t convolute this specific level, nor create a large power gap.
2 - Luminescence and Judgments of the Pure required level is changed to level 21.
Comment: While this is not a bad fix, it may greatly reduce the choices available for paladins in low level PvP, specially for Retribution (for which a majority of pvp talents require auras). A better solution could be to switch when those talents become available with others that don’t require auras, like Law and Order or Ultimate Retribution (which was available at this range before 9.1).
