Paladins Need PvP Balancing - Especially Prot/Holy

Post#1 » Wed Jul 22, 2026 2:36 pm

Paladins need to be reviewed and balanced in PvP, especially Prot/Holy, which is currently far too strong.

They are extremely difficult to kill, have too much healing, CC, defensive bubbles and burst damage. In my last Arathi Basin, 7 out of 10 players on one team were paladins. When more than 50% of players in battlegrounds are playing the same class, something is clearly wrong.

Shamans are also very strong, but Prot/Holy paladins are currently the biggest problem.

everyone ignores the obvious. they've left lay on HANDS (put your hands on someone boom holy magic bwaaaaaaa healing! with my hands!) at a 40 yard range through like 14 expansions, and every single private server that has ever existed. every single one, lay on hands 40 yard range. have you noticed that?

And hunters.

Op has a point though, palas do have crazy sustain and very good damage output.

Yea a heal bot that wears plate armor, has a 5 secobd stun and a invulnerablitiy shield where they can still cast heals has been a problem in wow for 25 years. Pair that with 2 warriors Faping and its impossible to stop. That said Alliance barely ques for bgs as it is and if you take this away they probably wont ever que because they are really bad for the most part. Shamans do too high dmg as well I agree. But at least a shaman you can focus down. I think a pvp healing nerf would be best if anything. Heals are doing too much. Just nerf healing in bgs by x amount and see what that does.
