WoW Forever Protection Paladin Rotation

    Protection Paladins have a lot of flexibility with their talent builds but we're opting for one that balances threat, defensiveness, and mana issues. In WoW Forever, your
    Judgement
    is also your taunt. Luckily you have a way to reset it with
    Swift Judgement
    in case of emergency. Mana issues seem to be mostly solved by talents. The sims will eventually tell us what the optimal rotation is, but below is an idea of what that might look like:

Single Target

  1. Use
    Righteous Fury
    .
  2. Use your assigned Aura, otherwise
    Devotion Aura
    or
    Retribution Aura
    .
  3. Use your assigned Blessing, otherwise
    Blessing of Kings
    .
  4. Maintain
    Seal of Fury
    . Use
    Seal of Righteousness
    instead when not tanking.
  5. Maintain
    Holy Shield
    .
  6. Cast
    Templar's Bulwark
    as your emergency defensive cooldown.
  7. Cast
    Swift Judgement
    followed by
    Judgement
    . Can be used as an emergency taunt, snap threat, or damage.
  8. Cast
    Holy Strike
    .
  9. Cast
    Judgement
    . Keep in mind that this is also your taunt when using
    Seal of Fury
    .
  10. Cast
    Consecration
    .
  11. Cast
    Exorcism
    if the target is Undead or Demon.
