LF Ret Pally Build

Postby Pythoansis on Tue Feb 16, 2010 1:35 pm

I've searched elitistjerk site for Ret info and without having to read 88 pages of constant info... perhaps a update on the build in TFF would be best?

Things I've done for my dps spec is pretty much everything elitist tells me to do. However rotation on spells seems to buggle me. So far I think this is correct, but please add your feedback.

Pre Tier 10 gear Rotation: Pending the # mobs.

1. Hammer of Wrath
2. Judgement - which one? I'm lead to beleive to use wisdom
3. Crusader Strike
4. Divine Storm
5. Consecration
6. Exorcism
7 Holy Wrath

Post Tier 10:

1. Judgement
2. DS
3. CS
4. HoW
5. Cons
6. Exo
7. HW

Ask me in game and I will talk to you about it, there are some mandatory talent skills you have to spec into and some places where you have a choice, also Retribution paladin's use a first come first serve rotation, this means that you use more of a list of priorities over a regular rotation. You always start with your Judgment (Always wisdom) and then continue with what ever move is over cool down and will give you the highest amount of damage. Always keep your consecration up and always have 5 stacks of Vengeance on your target. When ever your Art of War talent pops use an instant cast Exorcism.

There is also an addon to use called CLRET, comes up with little pictures that show you what dps moves to do as they become free. You can also talk to me in game having had a ret pally for a long time and was one of the top dpser's, I think I may know what I am talking about :P

Thank you so much Sineers! I managed to hit 5K dps in five mans last night (certain times).
Overall dps for rAN = 4.8K Peaked at 6.2K
Overall dps for rPoS = 5.2K (however at the ramp to the tunnel on a reset all stats in recount, I hit 7K)
Overall dps for rVH = 4.5K Peaked at 5K

CLCRET is an awesome addon indeed. Though it should be allowable to click on the "big" icon to cast the spell... Still have to set up your spell on your bartender.

Things I did not know prior to Sineers' help

1. Socket ANY color gem in ANY colored socket...
2. Judgement of Wisdom is prime for Ret use

Thanks Sineers once again and thanks to Brun for the thread on getting our ass in gear :P :mrgreen: The only thing I still need to do is to find better boots!
