Retribution Talent Information From Blizzcon + More

According to the official Paladin forums, some people at Blizzcon playing the demos of Wrath of the Lich King noticed some retribution tree changes. I doubt this is a complete listing but it was what was revealed on the forums. I suspect that these might creep their way into patch 2.3 and are being tested at Blizzcon to get an initial read.

  • Crusader Strike is back to a 6 second cooldown.
  • Vengeance lasts for 30 seconds.
  • Sanctified Crusader has been merged with Improved Seal of the Crusader and is in the same spot as Imp SotC.
  • Vindication now lowers all stats by 15% not just strength and agility. Its position is now found deeper in the tree.

One interesting note is that Shaman received a talent that provides a conversion between attack power and spell damage (much like I and others of the paladin community suggested the paladin class get). Also Blizzard stated that the next season of PvP/Arena gear WILL HAVE RESILIENCE, but season 1 and 2 will not be changed to include it. I'm just glad I haven't spent any points yet on armor this season.
