What is the point of adding holy shock to the increased crit damage for the new Avenger’s 4 piece bonus? The gear has 0 intellect on it. Is it really so awful to give ret 15 or so int on these pieces so they have a decent mana pool and still allow Shockadin the illusion that we could actually dps in a raid? The 60% bonus crit damage us massive and the set pieces would work with the ZG set, but losing out on the mana pool and 200+ spell power seems needlessly cruel.
They should swap the T2.5 4set bonus with the ring-cape-weapon 3set bonus. Shockadins can keep their ZG 5set and Rets can have a stronger CS that procs seals.
No new gear option again feels bad. Is the plan just to wear T2.5, eat the spell dmg/int loss, and wear ZG/T2 gear for the remaining slots?
I hope this AQ ret set comes in core forged, I really hate the bonus, it feels like a downgrade for all playstyles. And the AQ10 set with a one hander its just
They have no clue how a Paladin functions, man. Paladins are STILL the ONLY class that cannot even hit their hit cap!
Even Shamans get spell hit from talents, but ours is still only melee so we miss our spells because even with the ring enchant we are at only 12% and not the SoD raid cap, which everyone else can hit for their rotation. This is huge for Ret.
