Holy Paladin Healing Easy Mode — 12.1

This build focuses on a very standard rotation of building Holy Power through Holy Shock and Flash of Light while spending it with either Light of Dawn. As always the goal is to generate as much Holy Power as possible while ensuring that you are not wasting any by not spending it.

This build is designed for those who want to play a fairly simple Mythic+-focused build, and it is also useful in Delves if you want to heal there.

This rotation will assume that you are playing the recommended raid build and would not change regardless of if you have access to your tier bonus. For more in-depth information please consult with the rotation page for additional rotations depending on your desired build.

• Cast Holy Shock as much as possible.
• Consume Holy Power with Eternal Flame for Single-Target healing or Light of Dawn for AoE healing.
• Cast Flash of Light when you do not have 3 Holy Power and cannot Holy Shock.
• Cast Holy Light for big healing, just don't do it too much or you will run out of mana extremely quickly.

5-man healing is very similar to raiding rotations, with the exception that you will be casting Word of Glory (or Eternal Flame if Herald of the Sun) much more frequently. This rotation will assume that you are playing the recommended Mythic+ build.

• Use Holy Shock as your primary healing spell.
• Consume Holy Power with Word of Glory (or Eternal Flame if Herald of the Sun).
• Cast Flash of Light when you do not have 3 Holy Power and cannot Holy Shock.
• Cast Holy Light for big healing single-target healing.

While doing dungeons, you can rely on Holy Light much more because you are able to drink in between pulls. This means that you will not be as concerned about mana as you would be in Raid.

In Midnight, you will gain access to Beacon of the Savior, the new Apex talent. This ability has three separate ranks that all increase its power. Below we will break down what each individual rank does:

• Rank 1 — While in combat, you will gain an additional beacon called Beacon of the Savior. This beacon will automatically be placed on the lowest health ally and will transfer to the new lowest health ally if it heals a player above 50% or another ally drops below 50%.
• Rank 2 — Increases the amount of healing transferred by Beacon of the Savior and increases the amount of healing you do to the target with Beacon of the Savior.
• Rank 3 — Every 8 seconds or when Beacon of the Savior transfers, an absorb shield is placed on the target that also provides damage reduction until the shield is broken.

Beacon of the Savior is largely a passive effect that you do not need to worry about significantly. In general treat it as having a 3rd Beacon of Light and you can largely ignore it. That being said, because you do additional healing to your Beacon of the Savior, it isn't a big deal if you find yourself directly healing your Savior target like it typically would with a Beacon of the Light target.

The Midnight Season 2 tier set is fairly straight forward for Holy Paladin. It will provide the following bonuses:

• Paladin Holy 12.1 Class Set 2pc — Increases the healing done by Flash of Light and the absorb from Greater Judgment.
• Paladin Holy 12.1 Class Set 4pc — Judgment now has a 20% chance to grant Infusion of Light and Holy Light now always grants it. Holy Light mana cost is also increased.

This tier set bonus provides a nice rotational boost to Holy Paladin. Judgment is much weaker than Flash of Light with Infusion of Light but it now becomes a much better ability to press when you are fishing for a Infusion proc. Additionally, Holy Light is now a guaranteed way to get an Infusion. This will not have a major effect on your rotation, but now you will have much more access to Infusion of Light meaning that you do not need to cast as many unbuffed Flash of Lights.

The mana cost increase from Holy Light can seem quite weird on first glance, but it is there to prevent players from spamming Holy Light endlessly due to having infinite mana and leading to infinite Infusion of Lights.

The general stat priority for a Holy Paladin is seen below. This is very much a rough guideline and is designed for players who do not wish to sim their character through QuestionablyEpic. For more information on what's presented on this page, check out our main Stat Priority page.

Added in Patch 11.1.7, the combat assistant is a one-button ability intended to cast your rotational abilities. Unfortunately for healer specs, this does not function well. As a Holy Paladin, the combat assistant will not cast healing spells, it will not cast Holy Shock, and it will not spend holy power. This makes it fairly unusable. The only situation in which you could use it is when focused entirely on dealing damage, and even then you would still need to cast your other abilities on your own.
