5.0 Combat changes: What do you expect?

[Khalithar]

I’ll tell you what I want the most. I want some of our new abilities to replace existing ones with a higher potency. I’ve been playing a paladin since a few months before HW launches and I’m REALLY bored of fast blade, riot blade, and savage blade. I think upgrading old abilities is also a fantastic compromise for creating something new while simultaneously addressing hotbar bloat.

The issue is that one system does not necessarily fit all. Not every job can satisfyingly turn a balance of two otherwise unrelated resources into a mechanic. I'd argue even that the only reason it works as well as it does for PLD now is because it's unique.

Paladins resource isn’t the most exciting to use honestly, it’s certainly useful. Sheltron and Intervention are godly powerful for OTing 12s but in other fights I really wish I had some other dps options for it outside of intentionally using Sheltron to block weak aoe so I can shield swipe occasionally. :/
