Paladin PvP Guides for Cataclysm Classic
Welcome to our PvP Paladin guide for Cataclysm. Here you will find
overviews of all viable PvP Paladin specs, learn about their strengths,
weaknesses and best professions, as well as macros and addons for Paladin.
You can also find links to the detailed specialization guides below.
Paladin PvP Overview
Paladin has two great specializations for PvP
depending on your preferred role. As a Retribution Paladin you will be one of
the highest burst damage dealers in the game with the ability to efficiently off-heal
thanks to the addition of Word of Glory and
Selfless Healer. If you
are interested in Healing, Holy is one of the strongest PvP healers in the game
with their incredible ability to output massive single target heals and can easily
maintain a second target with
Beacon of Light.
Check out our Paladin PvP guides to get a better understanding of how to gear and play your Paladin in PvP as either specialization. Inside of these guides we have included a number of ways to improve your game play as well as lists of what are considered to be the best-in-slot sets for PvP.
Paladin Arena Compositions
If you are unsure what classes pair best with your Paladin check out our guides listed below breaking down the strongest compositions for each arena bracket.
Macros and Addons
Macros and Addons can give you an edge in PvP as a lot of PvP engagements come down to two things, ability to react correctly and who has the most information. Macros allow you to complete actions much quicker than you would likely otherwise be able to by inputting multiple inputs at the same time and Addons allow you access to much more information than you would otherwise have, make sure to check out our Paladin-specific Addons and Macros guides; listed below to help optimize your game play experience.
