What do Holy Strike and Seal of Fury do?

Holy Strike is an instant Holy damage weapon attack you learn at level 6, and it is the button you press most while leveling. Seal of Fury is the Protection tanking Seal you learn at level 10. Blizzard built it for fast weapons. It also gives you a small absorb shield, and judging it taunts the target.

Since the November 11 hotfix, Judgement counts as a ranged attack. It uses your ranged hit chance and does not trigger melee procs.

Should Paladins skip ranks to save gold?

Skip only the ranks you will not press. Forever penalises ranks that are far below your level. They get less benefit from spell power and are less likely to trigger talents, so downranked heals do not save as much mana as they did in Classic.

Always train your main attack, your main heal and your Seal. Resistance aura ranks (Shadow at 28, Frost at 32, Fire at 36) can wait until a raid needs them.

Where is the Paladin trainer in WoW Forever?

Wowhead's data comes from Lord Grayson Shadowbreaker in Stormwind's Cathedral of Light. Every capital that has Paladins has a trainer. Forsaken Paladins are new in Forever and start with the class quest Rediscovering the Light.

You can only change talents at a class trainer in a major city, so plan your respecs around trips to town. At level 20 the Paladin class quests reward a two-hander: Verigan's Fist for the Alliance and Wolfsbane for the Horde, the Horde one new in Forever.

Is Blessing of Salvation still in WoW Forever?

No. Blizzard removed Blessing of Salvation, Mass Salvation and Revoke at launch, along with Blessing of Light. To make up for it, Righteous Fury now gives +33% threat plus +90% threat from Holy damage, and it is trained at level 10.

If you would rather skip the trainer runs, PewPewShop has a vetted human player who will level your Paladin for you. Hourly leveling starts at from 10 EUR.

Talents are not taught by the trainer: plan them in the WoW: Forever talent calculator. For specs, talents and leveling, see the WoW: Forever Paladin guide.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to train all Paladin spells in WoW Forever?

Wowhead's Stormwind trainer data lists 145 Paladin ranks costing 240g 9s in total from level 1 to 60. Blizzard's launch development notes put the full training cost at about 206 to 207 gold for every class. Plan for roughly 200 to 240 gold over the whole climb to 60.

What level do Paladins get Consecration in WoW Forever?

Every Paladin learns Consecration at level 20 from the class trainer, with no talent needed. In Classic it was a talent. Later ranks come at 30, 40, 50 and 60. In Forever Consecration only damages the first four enemies standing in it.

When do Paladins get Seal of Fury?

Seal of Fury is trained at level 10, the same level as Righteous Fury. New ranks follow at 18, 26, 34, 42, 50 and 58. It is the tanking Seal: its bonus Holy damage is the same on every swing, it gives a small absorb shield, and its Judgement taunts the target.

Do Paladins get Blessing of Kings without a talent in WoW Forever?

Yes. Blessing of Kings is a trained spell at level 20, and Greater Blessing of Kings comes at level 60. All blessings in Forever last one hour, and the greater versions also last one hour instead of 15 minutes.

Do new spell ranks replace old ones on the action bar in WoW Forever?

No. Newly learned spells are not added to your action bars automatically, so you have to drag each new rank from the spellbook by hand. The default spellbook hides lower ranks, and a toggle lets you show all of them.
