Holy Paladins in 4.0

[MandolinRain]

Woe is me. I only just started learning the ins-and-outs of being a holy paladin and they go and change it on me. Haha


Here are a few basic pointers that I've gathered so far:

Specs: Int > Spirit = Haste > Crit > Mastery

Gem: All intellect; 1 Insightful Earthsiege Diamond and 1 Nightmare Tear

Glyphs:
Prime: Word of Glory, Seal of Insight, Holy Shock/Divine Favor (I chose HS because you use it so much more)
Major: Beacon of Light, Divine Plea, Divinity
Minor: Lay on Hands, Insight, Blessing of Might/Kings

Spells:

Holy Shock !!

Flash of Light: Use only in emergencies (fast & expensive)

Holy Light: slow, small and inexpensive heal. Feel free to spam without fear of oom'ing

Divine Light: For periods of heavy amounts of damage.

Light of Dawn: Sends a wave of healing in a cone in front of you

Word of Glory: Instant heal requiring no mana. Always use when you have three combo points (from Holy Shock).

Seal: Insight

Plate Specialization: If you've equipped plate items only, you will get 5% more overall intellect.
