What has changed
Midnight Ret Paladin Changes
With Midnight’s release we gain access to Apex Talents, specifically Light Within for Retribution Paladin.
Light Within empowers spenders during Avenging Wrath further, as well as our Art Of War procs, causing Blade Of Justice to deal a large amount of AoE damage.
