The stat priority for Holy Paladin in PvP is as follows:

Intellect is the best stat in all situations. Versatility is the next best stat as it will increase the damage/healing you do and reduce the damage you take. This is followed up with Mastery. Holy Paladin Mastery ( Mastery: Lightbringer), when used with the Beacon of the Lightbringer Talent, is crucial for Holy Paladins in PvP.

In general, Holy Paladins want to get trinkets that line up well with Avenging Crusader or Avenging Wrath. These trinkets can have a passive or on-use effect. The stats you want to increase are either Intellect or Versatility. You want to increase Versatility because it increases both your damage and healing. Intellect is great for increasing your overall healing output.

It is important to note that ALL tier sets are nerfed to 33% effectiveness in PvP. Although this nerf is significant, some tier sets are still important to acquire to maximize your chances to win. For Holy Paladins, this is your tier set:

• 2-set: Infusion of Light increases the healing of Flash of Light by an additional 100% and the absorb from Greater Judgment by an additional 100%.
• 4-set: Judgment now has a 20% chance to grant Infusion of Light. Holy Light now has a 100% chance to grant Infusion of Light, but its mana cost is increased by 50%.

In general, it is recommended to get both 2-set and 4-set for Holy Paladins

Embellishments are bonuses that can be put on crafted gear. These affects can have a drastic impact on the game. You are only allowed to have 2 Embellishments equipped at the same time. Here are the recommended Embellishments for Holy Paladin:

• Blessed Pango Charm gives your healing spells a chance to grant Versatility to your target. This is great for increasing the survivability of your team. Craft this on both rings or a ring and a neck.
