Ranks at level: 1 1 · 2 10 · 3 20 · 4 30 · 5 40 · 6 50 · 7 60

Unleash the energy of a Seal spell upon an enemy. Does not consume the Seal. Refer to individual Seals for Judgement effect.

What to know: Changed: no longer consumes the Seal, and Judgement debuffs last 40 seconds (Seal of Justice's stays 10). Under Seal of Fury it taunts for 4 seconds.

You are protected from all physical attacks and spells for 8 sec, but during that time you cannot attack or use physical abilities yourself. Applies Forbearance for 1 min. Cannot be cast while Forbearance is active.

Ranks at level: 1 6 · 2 18

An instant strike that causes 50% weapon damage plus an additional 81 to 105 as Holy damage.

What to know: New in Forever. Holy damage, so armour doesn't reduce it. Its cooldown is 10 seconds. Sacred Arbiter (Ret) makes it refresh every Judgement on the target; Iron Creed (Prot) adds threat and damage reduction; Holy Power adds 15% crit to it.

Ranks at level: 1 6 · 2 12 · 3 20 · 4 28 · 5 36 · 6 44 · 7 52 · 8 60

Stuns the target for 6 sec.

Ranks at level: 1 8 · 2 24 · 3 40 · 4 54

Heals a friendly target for an amount equal to the Paladin's maximum health and restores 550 of their mana. Drains all of the Paladin's remaining Mana when used, but does not interrupt Mana regeneration.

What to know: 20-minute cooldown (Classic 1 hour). Still drains all your mana, but no longer stops your mana regeneration.

Ranks at level: 1 10 · 2 30 · 3 50

Fills the Paladin with divine fury for 30 sec, causing melee attacks to deal an additional 35 Holy damage. While a shield is equipped, each attack also grants an absorb shield equal to 50% of the Holy damage dealt. Only one Seal can be active on the Paladin at any one time.

Unleashing this Seal's energy inflicts 154 to 167 Holy damage to an enemy and taunts the target to attack you for 4 sec.

What to know: New tank Seal. Flat Holy damage per swing, so fast weapons gain the most. The absorb needs a shield. Judging it taunts for 4 seconds from 10 yards. Growl and Taunt reach only 5 yards (Blizzard).

Ranks at level: 1 10 · 2 18 · 3 26 · 4 34 · 5 42 · 6 50 · 7 58

Causes 20 Holy damage to any creature that strikes a party member within 30 yards. Players may only have one Aura on them per Paladin at any one time.

What to know: Uses your spell power (not the target's), with base damage at the Vanilla values (about 33% less: 5/8/12/16/20 by rank) and a spell-power ratio of 6%. Do not expect it to carry threat.

Ranks at level: 1 16 · 2 26 · 3 36 · 4 46 · 5 56

Increases the threat generated by your Holy attacks by 90%. Lasts 30 min.

What to know: 90% more Holy threat. It lasts 30 minutes; it is not a toggle.

Consecrates the land beneath the Paladin, doing 96 Holy damage over 8 sec to enemies who enter the area. The first 4 enemies who enter the area will take an additional 216 damage over 8 sec.

What to know: Baseline at 20 (a Holy talent in Classic). The first four enemies take the full damage; the rest take about 70% less. Ticks dropping to 1–2 damage on mobs walking in were a bug that matches Blizzard's fix for Consecration failing to apply its increased damage to some targets; re-test if ticks still flicker.

Ranks at level: 1 20 · 2 30 · 3 40 · 4 50 · 5 60

Causes 475 to 529 Holy damage to an Undead or Demon target.

What to know: Only hits Undead and Demons. Base damage cut in Forever; same spell-power ratio.

When activated, this ability grants you an absorb shield equal to 100% of your maximum health for 8 sec. Applies Forbearance for 1 min. Cannot be cast while Forbearance is active.

What to know: New Prot 21-point talent: an absorb equal to your maximum health for 8 seconds. Applies Forbearance, so it can't follow Divine Shield or a Blessing of Protection.

Increases chance to block by 30% for 10 sec, and deals 221 Holy damage for each attack blocked while active. Damage caused by Holy Shield causes 20% additional threat.
