I got crit tonight in 39 AB for 835 damage, then judged for 400+ damage, then they bubbled, and I was dead. And nit-picked me apart. This wasn't one time. This is every twink paladin I come across.
I have an 80 prot paladin as well, in terrible gear for my ret spec, I'm critting for 4.5 k in nothing but crafted epics and dungeon blues. I can put in so much burst on this terriblely geared character that I'm at the very least going 1 for 1 each time I spirit rez, 1 kill, die. Seriously, with my gear it should be move like 1 kill, die 4-5 times like the way my Mage (and Warlock) was for a while with no resilience.
With all the hoopla about twink nerfs in this patch, Ret paladins didn't get taken down enough, and it's because of Exorcism. It needs a look at, and honestly, I love the ranged damage my pally can do now, but I think the damage the ranks can do needs to come down a tad.
Yeah, yeah, so says the caster, QQ, I can dig it. I'm not asking for a nerf (though it is obviously going to be) but at least make the fight fair for both sides here.
