• (2) Set Bonus: Expurgation deals 20% increased damage.
• (4) Set Bonus: Final Verdict applies Expurgation at 100% effectiveness, while Divine Storm applies it at 50% effectiveness.

Tier Set Discussion:

The Midnight Season 1 Tier Set for Ret Paladin does not have any impact on rotation or gameplay. You’ll still prioritize Blade Of Justice and Art Of War procs regardless of Expurgation already being applied to your target from your spenders.

You should still prioritise the gear you use by running a sim for your character, but the lists below will give you a good idea of what items are considered good for Retribution Paladin, and help you target the right content for each piece of loot.

There are a number of great trinkets for Ret Paladin in Midnight Season 1.

S Tier Trinkets:

1. Umbral Plume
2. Gaze Of The Alnseer

A Tier Trinkets:

1. Solarflare Prism
2. Algeth'ar Puzzle Box
3. Heart Of Ancient Hunger

B Tier Trinkets:

1. Light Company Guidon
2. Heart Of Wind
3. Vessel Of Tortured Souls
4. Galactic Gladiator's Badge Of Ferocity

Most of these trinkets are passive and do not change any gameplay or require any thought to be utilised, with the exceptions of Algeth'ar Puzzle Box and Vessel Of Tortured Souls.

Vessel Of Tortured Souls requires you to collect tiny green balls constantly, they’re rather difficult to spot and can be a nuisance to gather. However if you do manage to grab them all, this trinket is a decent pick.

Algeth'ar Puzzle Box has a cast time and may feel awkward to play with at first. However, all it really changes in your gameplay is make sure you use this trinket BEFORE casting Avenging Wrath in your opener, and not after.

Recommendations are subject to change and you should sim your character accordingly.

For early season crafting: Blood Knight's Warblade with Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt.
