Welcome to our Retribution Paladin DPS guide for World of Warcraft 4.3. Here, you will learn everything you need to know about playing a Retribution Paladin in a raid environment, though most of the content also applies to normal and heroic dungeons.

In single target DPS, the Retribution specialisation is currently performing well, compared to most other classes. While it is not at the top of the DPS rankings, it is certainly worth bringing to raids.

In AoE DPS, Retribution does decently, but certainly does not shine.

As is the case with all Paladins, Retribution Paladins bring many useful buffs and abilities, which a raid leader cannot really overlook.

To make it easy to bookmark the specific sections you are interested in, we have split the guide into 7 pages:

• Talents, Builds, and Glyphs: learn what the best talent trees are and how to customise them;
• Rotation, Cooldowns, and Abilities: understand how to play your class in an optimal way;
• Buffs, Debuffs, and Useful Abilities: discover your arsenal of useful abilities;
• Statistics Priority and Reforging: read up on the respective values of your statistics;
• Gems, Enchants, and Consumables: choose the best gems, enchantments, and consumables;
• Macros and Addons: benefit from useful macros an addons to step up your game;
• Gearing Up and Best in Slot: find the best gear you can wear.
