Get ready to ..... retttnoooooooooob!
Well, my healing gear has been improving I can now rely less and less on the Holy talent tree. Also, with the addition of an uber weapon lately I declare the month of May the "rise of the retnoob". Here is the spec I am planning to transition to in the week ahead: demretnoob.
The talents above 20 points in the retribution tree probably make a bigger difference to my overall game play than the talents in the holy tree. I will lose imp blessing of wisdom, +5 spell crit, imp healing light, and Holy Shock but will gain quite a bit of dps:
+10% strength
+6% damage with a 2her
+10% to holy damage with sanctity aura
+15% overall damage when vengence procs (melee crit)
... this could be a 25%-33% increase in my overall dps. No, this will not make me a rogue but it will get me close to a dps warrior.
I will focus on getting to 25+% melee crit with 300 str AND a decent amount of stamina while I also pay attention to my parry and dodge rate. This will require me to get some specialized gear that is hard to get
I will also keep a decent mana pool in order to using my 8 second seal of command judgment for addition holy damage, which also crits off melee crit rate.
If you have any comments or feedback let me know. With this build I would be more of an offhealer spamming flash of light than a main healer keeping melee alive. I would most likely melee through trash mobs at MC and then step back to heal during boss fights. I think this fits my playstyle...
