I suspect mana return on blocking might be more of a baseline ability for all, where the damage reduction seems more Protection-ish. Either effect could be talented into Kings, too. (Since they've already turned Sanctuary into 'Kings for tanks' this expansion.)Indynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-46876067200846917022010-05-11T10:56:05.037-07:002010-05-11T10:56:05.037-07:00The real question is why is the AP section a perce...The real question is why is the AP section a percentage (the buff is more valuable the more AP you have), while the MP5 is static additive.<br /><br />Ok the two aren't quite the same (AP + MP5 rather than AP + SP) but it seems odd that one scales with gear and the other is static. Realistically it seems Paladins should have the 3(4) Blessings:<br /><br />Blessing of Might: Increases Attack Power by 11% and Spell Power by 11% (duplicated by Warrior Battle Shout + Totem / Lock Pet)<br /><br />Blessing of Wisdom: Grants +2 Mana per 5 Seconds, 2 Energy per 5 seconds, 2 Focus per 5 seconds, 5 rage per 5 seconds, 10 Runic power per 5s seconds.<br /><br />Blessing of Kings: Increases Intellect, Stamina, Agility and Strength by 6%.<br /><br />Blessing of Sanctuary: Your Blessings now reduce damage taken by 3% and you regain 5% of your base mana when you dodge, parry or block an attack.<br /><br />One generic blessing, one protection blessing (since buffing kings is not really appropriate), 1 power blessing and 1 regen blessing.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18415648946567949701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-49925722576231059182010-05-11T08:28:12.373-07:002010-05-11T08:28:12.373-07:00"...2 mana every 5 seconds for one hour."..."...2 mana every 5 seconds for one hour."<br /><br />Surely this is a description of the base "level 1" version of the spell, before level scaling is applied.

I saw a paladin running by and put a blessing on me (my warlock). I tried desperately to look for something I could throw on him. Best I could find was Water Breathing. <br /><br />Since then I've always had blessing envy. That was part of the reason why I rolled a paladin next.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05057210729779103508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-47402442780695505912010-05-11T07:30:10.550-07:002010-05-11T07:30:10.550-07:00I'll third the Drive-By blessings comment.

The combined Might/Wisdom blessing is a much better implementation.<br /><br />The nerfing of Kings to 6% was also much needed, since the buff was considered too valuable. So much so that Blizzard made the Drums of Forgotten Kings to make up for a possible lack of a Pally in 10-mans.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18381576369055180683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-61251959480050364212010-05-10T23:22:51.243-07:002010-05-10T23:22:51.243-07:00I have no idea what happened to Sanctuary.
