So how will Light Smith work in Midnight

Just curious I haven’t seen anything about Light Smith yet

Very late but as far as I can tell, Lightsmith is not working properly in Alpha so I’m assuming they plan on reworking it.

A key point is Holy Armament completely replaces Divine Toll. And not the way one would think where Divine Toll/Holy Prism would gain the attributes of Holy Armaments, nah apparently you just completely lose those spells in place of Holy Armaments.

This leads to the assumption that Lightsmith is getting a bunch of changes but we’ll see what those are

The prospect of Prot losing 5 Avenger shield going out and bouncing to hell and back is certainly a choice to be making…

Supposing you truly loose that, I don’t know that Lightsmith would be an interesting choice for Prot outside of single target fights…

But it’s alpha, like you said, probably not even done.

More so, I don’t think I saw in the notes that it’s supposed to replace DT/Prism?
Unless I’m mistaken?

I’m only basing this off second and info from the Discord, but it’s apparently not documented.

Taking that and the fact that when looking at the WoWhead talent calculator and the Lightsmith tree is just straight up not finished, leads me to think that well…it’s just bloody not done and they have to be cooking up a rework or something.

Logically speaking, the goal should be to get rid of Holy Armament as a button, so attaching it to cooldowns like Avenging Shield and Divine Toll would be…smart decisions I think if they tune them properly.
