Best Ret Paladin Mythic Plus talent build for World of Warcraft: The War Within

Ret Paladins are looking to be a solid DPS choice for the first season of World of Warcraft’s latest expansion, The War Within. 

Here’s a quick ONE Esports Mythic Plus Talent Build guide for Ret Paladins to get you started. 

Ret Paladin talent build for dungeons and Mythic Plus

Ret Paladin playstyle explained

Ret Paladins are a relatively easy melee DPS to master. You only need to be aware of two things, Holy Power generators and Holy Power spenders. 

Generate Holy Power using abilities like Hammer of Wrath, Blade of Justice, and Judgment, up to a maximum of five Holy Powers.

After generating enough Holy Powers, use powerful abilities like Templar’s Verdict for single target and Divine Storm for multi-targets as Holy Power spenders.

Remember to avoid overcapping Holy Powers as much as possible, going over five Holy Powers, as it will lead to a massive DPS loss. 

Hero Talents explained

For Mythic Plus, we’ll be running the Templar build.

The Templar build allows you to cast Hammer of Light after you cast Wake of Ashes. Hammer of Light is a powerful single target and multitarget ability, which only get more powerful as you buff the ability throughout the Hero Talent tree.

For example, you’ll be able to hit more targets and some of talents will also increase their damage. 

Occasionally, you’ll be able to cast Hammer of Light for free after proccing Light’s Deliverance passive talent.

There’s also no need to adjust to this build, as you’ll just need to remember to use it whenever it is available since it is your rotation’s top priority. 

Although the Herald of the Sun build has some synergy with non-Hero Talents, especially buffing your damage-over-time abilities, it just simply cannot compete with the damage of Hammer of Light, thus the Templar build will be the build of our choice.
