Paladin PvP Guides for Cataclysm Classic

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.

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 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.
