I have only played the pally in 3 versions of the game, legion, BFA, and shadowlands.
that being said, I was wondering,
What version of the ret pally do yall like the most? (across the entire games history)
WoD’s version of ret was pure poetry, it was a lightshow of procs and divine storms that both hit hard and felt like a good wonderous flow of gameplay, i say this was the peak of ret paladin gameplay, which got totally revamped in Legion, a good xpac but it gutted us dry.
To my dying day ill say that WoD’s ret was peotry in motion.

I really liked BFA, particularly the last season when you could get tons of uptime on wings.

It’s tragic that you never experienced Ret in WoD. That was by far the best version of the spec. Its rework in Legion was doo-doo.

WoD. Wrath had cool damage for the 3 skills we had.
Rest i do prefer legion onwards tbh.
I seem to recall Panda ret was fun too?
WOD was goated for Ret. Cata was great too if you enjoyed the support playstyle.

MoP Ret was good, but WoD Ret was sublime.

Its WoD>MoP>Shadowlands/Cata>BFA>Legion>Wotlk>TBC>Vanilla
Not considering the dps or viability. Just the fun of each variation.
Honestly can’t believe we finally made it to WoD, a beautiful design, and they trashed it all away for Legion. I will always despise this expansion for that dogcrap redesign.

I agree BFA with essences was leet
I liked Wrath the best. Never a more fun time to be a ret paladin, both pve and pvp.
Tough… I want say SL.
I main Ret in Legion (when I started playing WoW). BfA I dusted him (this dude i’m posting on) for a hunter. In SL I this Ret back. I went Nerco with him and thought it was fun but not enough to call a main again. I hate the slow burst (wings) play-style that Ret is
