Every week, WoW Insider brings you [hide]The Light and How to Swing It[/hide] for [hide]holy[/hide], [hide]protection[/hide] and [hide]retribution[/hide] paladins. Every Sunday, [hide]Chase Christian[/hide] invites you to discuss the finer side of the paladin class: the holy specialization. Feel free to [hide]email me[/hide] with any questions you want answered, like why paladins are so awesome.
From launch until Cataclysm, holy paladins survived on just a handful of heals. We traded healing complexity for unique utility, gaining [hide]Aura Mastery[/hide] instead of [hide]Wild Growth[/hide] or using [hide]Hand of Freedom[/hide] instead of [hide]Prayer of Mending[/hide]. Holy paladin healing was so simple for so many years, as we tended to gravitate toward a [hide]single spell[/hide] like Flash of Light or Holy Light in each expansion. While any other healing class could have complained that their class had become stagnant, holy paladins had literally been playing the same game of whack-a-mole for years.
Cataclysm’s massive retooling of paladins and introduction of the [hide]three-heal model[/hide] helped breathe new life into playing holy. Holy power gave us a unique mechanic to manage and gave us additional choices to make when healing. The three-heal model ensures that we’re forced to choose between throughput and efficiency, and now we’re challenged with managing our mana as well as our healing. Even though these changes drastically shifted the way we play our paladins, we were still relying on the same single-target heals we had always been. [hide]Healing Hands[/hide], now known as [hide]Holy Radiance[/hide], was the spell designed to upset the status quo.[hide]Continue reading The Light and How to Swing It: The AOE heal we deserve[/hide]Filed under: [hide]Paladin[/hide], [hide](Paladin) The Light and How to Swing It[/hide][hide]The Light and How to Swing It: The AOE heal we deserve[/hide] originally appeared on [hide]WoW Insider[/hide] on Sun, 09 Oct 2011 18:00:00 EST.
