There's no reason for Paladin buffs to still be 5 minutes

How about we extend the duration of shaman enhancements to 30 minutes and keep Paladin buffs at 5 minutes?

That actually would kinda suck for shamans if they can’t click the imbue off as well, wouldn’t it?

@Skullripper-skeram

Paladins are already the best class in the game. Why do you want buffs?

My two posts in this thread prior to replying to you didn’t have anything to do with buffing paladins, actually.

My first post said that Beacon of Light - a rune currently available - isn’t a good rune in this phase, and won’t be until later:

@Baldnbrash-wild-growth

. . . placing a Beacon . . . seems not very much worth it until you can really increase your mana pool, spell crit, and get 5/5 Illumination.

And my second post, in response to someone mentioning mana issues in a 40-man, said that if paladins are considered viable enough to bring to a 40-man without going holy, they may wind up with mana issues if gear is left as-is, as they’ll essentially be running with base mana:

@Baldnbrash-wild-growth

. . . if ret & prot aren’t considered meme specs in a 40 man . . . it may wind up pretty rough on the mana pool of non-holy pallies if the itemization on gear is left as-is.

I didn’t ask for any buffs; I called one rune useless for now, but that it would probably be useful later, and said if gear at 60 is itemized the same in SoD as in Classic Era, ret and prot pallies will likely have mana issues. That’s it. There’s no need to imply someone said what they didn’t. I said most people here that advocated for longer buff durations for paladins also said so for shaman totems & imbues to point out that it’s not “paladins being unsatisfied until they can one shot bosses;” they wouldn’t give a crap about shaman totems or imbues if that’s what they’re on about.
