PvP Talents for Holy Paladins

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.

3.1.

Mandatory PvP Talents

Divine Vision Icon Divine Vision increases the range of your Aura by 30 yards and reduces the cooldown of Aura Mastery Icon Aura Mastery by 60 seconds. This is great for increasing your team's passive survivability and being able to use Aura Mastery more often.

Searing Glare Icon Searing Glare causes enemies to miss their spells and attacks for 4 seconds. This is a great talent if you can time it correctly. Use this against teams that will be within 25 yards of you and time it for when they use their burst cooldowns.

3.2.

Situational PvP Talents

Blessing of Spellwarding Icon Blessing of Spellwarding blesses a party or raid member, granting immunity to magical damage and harmful effects for 10 seconds. Cannot be used on a target with Forbearance Icon Forbearance. Causes Forbearance Icon Forbearance for 30 seconds. Shares a cooldown with Blessing of Protection Icon Blessing of Protection. This is recommended to play if you are queueing into a team with 2 casters on it.

Denounce Icon 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 Icon Shield of the Righteous. This is great versus specializations, like Fire Mage, that heavily rely on dealing critical strikes.

Cleanse the Weak Icon 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 Icon Vampiric Touch on multiple teammates in one global cooldown.
