Best Holy Paladin PvP Talents
This new talent system is dramatically different from our original Cataclysm talents. Now players are given way less options in terms of talent selection, and can even change their talents in the starting gate using Tome of the Clear Mind.
Here we have your default talents for Holy Paladin. Let’s break down why these talents are so promising in MoP, and any alternatives you can select depending on the composition played or up against.
Hard-Locked Talents:
Speed of Light will give you an on-demand sprint which you can use along with Hand of Freedom in order to cross the map.
Eternal Flame replaces Word of Glory and adds a healing over time component to the spell. This is really great for your HPS and even has a unique interaction with Beacon of Light.
Soft-Locked Talents & Alternatives:
Fist of Justice will make your Hammer of Justice much easier to land, while dramatically reducing its cooldown. Your mobility is very limited as a Holy Paladin, so this helps eliminate one of your weaknesses.
Alternative: Evil is a Point of View can be played when you already have multiple stuns on your team, as is the case when playing a comp like Boomy Mage.
Clemency essentially doubles the amount of Hand spells you can use in arena and is fantastic for utility in any matchup.
Alternatives: Unbreakable Spirit specifically into heavy CC comps with both a Mage and a Druid as this will reduce the cooldown of Divine Shield and give you more CC breaks. Hand of Purity, on the other hand, is definitely playable into DoT cleaves, especially ones with Survival Hunters.
Divine Purpose will periodically give you a free Holy Power Spender, allowing you to burst heal more effectively or spread out your Eternal Flame HoT effect to deal with AoE damage.
Alternative: Holy Avenger into double DPS comps in 2v2 when you expect a very short matchup.
Holy Prism will give you some consistent AoE healing.
Alternative: Execution Sentence is best against setup comps with lots of burst like RMD or Godcomp. You can proactively use this ability on targets before CC lands, giving them a healing over time effect and a massive burst heal once it expires.
