    Other than that, looks great ;D

    Divine Purpose is useful for ToC as it breaks icehowls frost breath and anub's freezing slash (macro it to the tank), and stuns from faction champs.
    Replace mirror of truth with a deaths verdict as soon as you can, i know how difficult this can be.

    i might be going crazy but i see no blue gems to activate ur meta... throw a nightmare tear in your legs (until u get the t9 chest, then put it there) to activate the meta as the str bonus is the biggest.

    - I'm not a "raider". I think I've cleared ToC-25 maybe three times, and ToC-10 at most twice. I only get to raid if I have the night off (and nothing to do) and my guild needs someone to sub in for one of their squad members. Most of the time I stick with just heroics. Although, I have been spending the majority of my time lately trying to get , "The Loremaster", "The Seeker", and "Salty" titles
    - I have my Nightmare Tear in my bracers ;D

    370 hit? bad
    29 exp? bit too high, so bad

    And for the T8's, I'm gonna assume you just hit 80 or came back from a short break

    could replace one of the rings for 245 vendor one, and replace chest for either crafted or just random 245 chest ftw!


    Also, Relentless Earthsiege diamond is BiS meta gem for Ret pallies~ Remember to place 1 Nightmare tear to meet the meta gem requirement

    Re: Rate The Ret Paladin Above You

    For the one above me, not bad on hit nor expertise (Tiny bit low but it seems you are still in the process of gearing up). You should change your glyph of exorcism to a glyph of seal of vengeance (Seal of Corruption for us hordes) to help out with your expertise though, that way you are only 3 expertise away from cap on any fight where you use SoCorruption. Also your crit and AP are both low but as I said, it looks like you are still gearing up. Is my armory bugged? Or did T8 helms loose their meta gem slots? :S Also, why do you have a 6str9stam gem? Strength all the way unless you can use a yellow slot to get a strength gem bonus, go with a 10str10crit in the yellow slots that will grant you bonuses (Such as a yellow slot only unless there are loads of yellows, or a yellow+red where you can put a 20str in the red and get the bonus.). Your spec it also a bit weird, you seem to only have changed the Divine Sacrifice talent after 3.3, instead of changing all the talents you spent getting there too.

    As for my own ret, http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sh...lands&n=Sezuka.

    I like crit mkey? Also, I know there is no 4set T9 but it sucks anyways, and if you can switch out ilvl 245 T9 items with 258 items you can drop the 2 set, which I did with 2 of them and keeping 3 instead of using a better 245 for the 3rd item just seems stupid.

    Bad trinket is bad.

    Healing Light is also better than 3/5 Divine Intellect.

    Otherwise okay. 8.5/10.

    Re: Rate The Ret Paladin Above You

    I know the trinket sucks, but drops for Death's Choice has been awful for my guild. Seen the 245 two or three times, and the 258 once. Also would've had my 258 axe by now if it would ever drop after the two first times ... Damn the luck!

    Go run 5 heroics for Mirror of Truth.

    Re: Rate The Ret Paladin Above You

    Got Mirror of Truth and Wrathstone in bank, but would have to switch to other downgrades to use any of the two to still stay hitcapped. Basically my current item set is the one with highest dps of the items I have laying around.

    How much are you under the hit cap without the trinket?

    Havent changed the spec yet, but what id like to hear is opinions on my belt gemming. Rawr says this is a tad better than 20str gems but im not 100% sure

    Re: Rate The Ret Paladin Above You

    i do belive the math is if you dont get 4 str pet 10 str/crit it isnt worth it. If i can ever see that damn belt drop i plan on going all 20str in it. you could also drop icewalker. aside from that, you are money.
