Learn how to defeat Paladins in World of Warcraft by saving stuns and using DoTs, as they are strong against melee classes.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    When fighting a Paladin in World of Warcraft, save your stuns and cooldowns until the Paladin reaches approximately 20% of their health. Using them too early allows the Paladin to use their 'bubble' ability to heal and restart the fight with a health advantage.
  2. 2
    Melee classes in World of Warcraft often struggle against Paladins due to the Paladin's ability to heal and their lack of range, making them vulnerable to casters and hunters.
  3. 3
    Damage-over-time (DoT) effects are highly effective against Paladins in World of Warcraft, as they bypass their plate armor and force them to expend more mana on healing.
  4. 4
    A Paladin's survivability in World of Warcraft is largely dependent on their mana pool.
Tips
  • Dual-specializing in retribution is the first priority for all Paladin specializations (tanking, healing, or damage) in World of Warcraft.
  • Paladins in World of Warcraft can free themselves from most crowd control effects that would halt them.
  • Paladins in World of Warcraft lack range, making them vulnerable to ranged attacks.
