Holy Paladin PvP Talents and Builds (Dragonflight 10.2)

Below is the talent build you should use in PvP:

While the above table provides a generally accurate overview of the viability of talents, some finer points are discussed in the sections that follow, and we recommend you read those for a deeper understanding.

Some important spells to note in the Paladin talent tree:

• Blinding Light/ Repentance. Blinding Light is great if your team already has a lot of stuns and a diminishing return with Repentance, like RMP. Important note: Repentance shares a diminishing return with spells like Polymorph. You should not take Repentance when playing with a Mage.
• Cavalier is an important talent for a few reasons. You should use this talent if you will be the primary target or push in for crowd control on large maps. This will help get crowd control and run away so teams cannot swap to you. If they do swap to you, you will have an additional charge of Divine Steed to quickly get away.
• Sanctified Wrath makes your Avenging Wrath even stronger by reducing Holy Shock's cooldown while it is active.

Some important spells to note in the Holy Paladin Talent tree:

• Saved by the Light is a crucial talent to have in every matchup. This provides a large absorption shield on a teammate that gets low on health and is great for when you are stuck in crowd control.
• Inflorescence of the Sunwell gives your Infusion of Light procs an additional charge and reduces the Mana cost of Flash of Light. This is important so you can have multiple procs active simultaneously and not miss out on healing.
• Glimmer of Light makes it so Holy Shock puts a debuff on an enemy or buff on your teammates. When you use Holy Shock, it will heal your teammates and damage enemies. This will break crowd control if Glimmer of Light is on an enemy.

You can choose 3 of the following PvP talents, each has uses, but some are better for certain strategies than others. The top three choices are the most useful but can be replaced with other PvP talents, depending on your team's goal.

Blessed Hands makes your Blessing of Freedom and Blessing of Protection now have an additional charge. This gives you additional utility for your teammates and gives you multiple defenses. Abilities like Blessing of Freedom and Blessing of Protection are already strong, but with 2 charges, you will have much utility during an arena match.

Denounce is used on an enemy and prevents the target from causing critical effects for the next 8 seconds. This replaces Shield of the Righteous. This is great versus specializations, like Fire Mage, that heavily rely on dealing critical strikes.

Ultimate Sacrifice makes it so that your Blessing of Sacrifice will now transfer 50% of all damage to you. You can use this to negate a team's entire burst if you heal yourself while it is active. You can also use this before a crowd control like Polymorph or Fear, so they break from damage.

Cleanse the Weak makes it so that when you dispel a teammate affected by your aura, one of your teammate's with the same DoT will have it dispelled. This is crucial versus specializations like Shadow Priest or Elemental Shaman. This will allow you to dispel Vampiric Touch on multiple teammates in one global cooldown.
