Holy Paladin PvP Talents and Builds — Midnight Season 1
Choosing the right PvP and PvE talents is a prerequisite to proper performance in PvP. This guide goes through the various talent choices available to you as a Holy Paladin and gives you the best combinations you can take.
This page is part of our Holy Paladin PvP Guide.
Talent Choices for Holy Paladins
Midnight PvP Talent Builds for Holy Paladin in Arena
This talent build will give you the most overall healing output, as well as damage.
Avenging Crusader is an extremely powerful healing cooldown now that allows you to heal through damage while active.
This is the overall best healing build for Holy Paladins in Battleground Blitz.
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.
Mandatory PvP Talents
Divine Vision increases the range of your Aura by 30 yards and
reduces the cooldown of
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 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.
Situational PvP Talents
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. Causes
Forbearance for 30 seconds. Shares a cooldown with
Blessing of Protection. This is recommended to play if you are queueing into a team with 2 casters on it.
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.
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.
