Retribution Paladin: Rotation
The Retribution priorities, top to bottom: use the first one that applies.
Level 40–60 with Twist of Light (projected)
- Seal of the Crusader judge it at the start of a long fight;
Holy Strike keeps it refreshed through
Sacred Arbiter. Unconfirmed (in client data only, not yet confirmed in game) - Twist of Light after a swing, swap between
Seal of Command and
Seal of Righteousness: your next swing also applies the Seal you replaced. One swap per swing; there is no tight timing window. Unconfirmed (in client data only, not yet confirmed in game) - Holy Strike on cooldown.
- Judgement on cooldown. Judge after a
Hammer of Justice stun when Command is up for double damage. - Hammer of Wrath from 44, on targets below 20%.
Instrument of Law makes it instant. - Consecration on packs.
Packs
- Seal of Righteousness for packs if you carry a lot of spell power.
- Consecration first, where the mobs stand.
- Holy Strike and
Judgement on whatever is lowest. - Holy Wrath from 50 against
Undead and Demons: damage and a 2-second stun.
Cooldowns and emergencies
- Hammer of Justice stun, then
Judgement of Command for double damage; also your main way to stop a cast (
Repentance covers humanoids). - Repentance 6-second incapacitate on a humanoid add. Judging Command on an incapacitated target also does double damage.
- Lay on Hands a full self-heal every 20 minutes.
- Divine Shield to survive; your damage is halved while it is up.
While leveling
- Blessing of Might on yourself; Kings once you have it at 20 if you prefer survivability.
- Seal of Command kept up from 20 with a slow two-hander. Before 20,
Seal of Righteousness. - Judgement on cooldown. On long fights, judge
Seal of the Crusader first, then switch back to Command. - Holy Strike on cooldown. With
Sacred Arbiter it refreshes your Crusader
Judgement. - Consecration on two or more enemies, if mana allows.
