Im surprised that people are actually surprised about the nerf. Its plain as day that ret pallies are OP in every combat situation.

wow this will hurt prot pallies too in a way, or actually steer us even more towards Full-Fledged Str/AP swords, where really good 'caster' maces like the Hammer of Judgement was still pretty reasonable.
20% reduction in Judgements, reduced JoW to 1% mana recuperated with now a 50% proc rate. this sucks cause in 5 mans, i was less of a drink-a-din between packs when i used JoW. -------------------- Your friendly, neighborhood tankadin

prot pallies holding aggro has considerably gotten more difficult - especially with melee (due to the threat change mechanics with near-range vs far range)

With the expansion coming most of the mobs (from what i hear) is pretty much all undead ,demon ,scourage what ot ..so your threat should be built in

Not to mention the spider places, Uldar and any dragon interactions would be outside the undead/demon category.

I heard prot threat balances out due to increasing armor on WotlK content. So the idea must be that spell dmg bypasses armor. How much armor do spiders have? Prob just another rumor to get more paladins to tank.
