    Holy shock macro

    yo, ive been trying to find a good holy shock macro to use in arenas, i remember a few years ago most of the paladins were binding taunt on their holy shock macro, is it possible anymore?

    You're wrong.
    That is not the only taunt available to paladins, Righteous Defense hasn't be available to anyone but prot for like 3 expansions.
    Reckoning is also a taunt, though every castable CC in the game now turns off their pets attacks on you.
    IE: Polymorph turns their elementals attack off of you, so taunt does nothing to help break that.

    THOUGH if you're versing a hunter team, taunt his pet on you to eleviate the pressure on your team mates.
    Some times you can get lucky and taunt the hunter pet at the right time and break the paladin's repent on you, or similar.

    Part of the reason for that was that the paladin taunt had a damage component, which it no longer does.

    Reckoning is still and always should be used.
    I've been using it in 2300+ arenas for 3-4 expansions.
    So.. Yeah.

    In Cataclysm, it was a baseline spell available to all Paladins, just like it was in Wrath and Burning Crusade.

    Before MoP, the only spells that were spec-restricted were the ones that you had to talent into - Righteous Defense and Hand of Reckoning were never talents.

    I don't remember if ret had Righteous Defense in Cata but I know 100% it was available in Wrath.

    EDIT: claiming your 2300 + rated while armory says your highest rating is 2227, tss
