As a disclaimer, I'm not a raider, nor am I decked out in epics. I've got over 18k mana unbuffed so it's rare that I have issues.<BR/><BR/>When I do, though, there's one spell I always turn to that's incredibly powerful: Judgment of Wisdom. Since that works off your maximum mana and not your base, I get absurd mana regen, with no healing penalty. The additional benefits to judging also manifest since I've dabbled Ret with Holy.<BR/><BR/>I use Divine Plea, and think it a good spell, but for PvE I find that JoW is really much more effective. It's a bit of a different bent on healing from what we who stand in the back are used to (why am I so close?!?!), but if it lets me heal the party during Sarth with constantly full mana, I'm all in.<BR/><BR/>I have advocated a nerf to JoW for a while now, and I still do. I would almost prefer that to be nerfed instead of DP, but perhaps this is focused more on PvP healers?Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14975944325795562366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-62080494536134579922009-02-05T21:26:00.000-08:002009-02-05T21:26:00.000-08:00I don't see any (more) nerfs to paladins. Perhaps...I don't see any (more) nerfs to paladins. Perhaps BoS would get hit, but mostly as a group thing, with warriors potentially getting an alternative and others being possible for other classes. If anything this could mean BoS as a passive ability, meaning one less blessing to worry about, and removing the problem of prot having two blessings, both that are very desirable.<BR/><BR/>We already see the DP change. I can't see much else for Holy, especially considering they specifically mentioned NOT nerfing Illumination. There is the SA change, but I don't see that being too huge.<BR/><BR/>If anything we're due for some buffs, such as SS scaling for ret.<BR/><BR/>@Suicidal Zebra<BR/>It's worth remembering that the WoW playerbase is semi-inverse to a normal population. It's at the end of the work week that we get ready for fun, including gaming. Also Fridays are generally less productive, perhaps because of a few million more workers on the forums.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292755.post-45496262546473048872009-02-05T21:03:00.000-08:002009-02-05T21:03:00.000-08:00Yup, 50%http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/02/05/mana-...Yup, 50%<BR/><BR/>http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/02/05/mana-regeneration-changing-dramatically-in-3-1/#continued<BR/><BR/>and then later tonight they announced some of the paladin 3.1 changes in the works.<BR/><BR/>-BoK is a base ability (FINALLY)<BR/>-Exorcism damages any type of enemy, but autocrits demon/undead<BR/><BR/>those were the big 2, but there's a few more.
