Below is our guide for prioritizing your abilities optimally. This should help give you a basic understanding of what to do and what's most important to focus on. Each rotation list is more of a 'priority list'--in real-time, you'll constantly be determining which ability to use next. Out of all abilities you have available, use the one highest up in the priority list.
Apr 12, 2019 Destiny/Flurry Axe - Blade of Hanna - Ironfoe - Ashbringer - Hungering Cold - Thunderfury - MCP. If you use Flask then Flurry Axe will be better than Hanna - if so, then use Spirit of Aquementas. The effect on this is an elemental that casts a random spell, then disappears: curse on target, 5 sec group haste, group heal 50 every 5 sec for 15 sec, or a 150ish AoE, or +50 all stats lasts 5 sec. Also, it dropped off of General Drakkisath in UBRS (very rarely).
Fires of justice: Reduces the cooldown of Crusader Strike by 15% and grants a 15% chance to make your next ability consume 1 less Holy Power. Right now I don't see any point in picking this, the 2 other talents are just way better in overall damage. Blade of Wrath: it doubles the proc rate of Art of War and increases its damage by 25%. Currently you can make this talent work if either you got.
Crusade Usage and Openers. If you aren't using Wake of Ashes, use with 4+ Holy Power stocked up to build stacks as quick as possible. If you are using Wake of Ashes, stack to 3 Holy Power, Use Crusade then Templar's Verdict before getting back to 5 Holy Power with Wake of Ashes. If you are using Execution Sentence.
Holy Power Generation Use the following priority list when generating Holy Power.
Holy Power Consumption Use the following priority list when consuming Holy Power.
Blade Of Hanna Spell Dmg Ret Pally 3
Inquisition (with >= 2 Holy Power)
Blade Of Hanna Spell Dmg Ret Pally Guide
See Single Target DPS Rotation
The rotation is much the same in AoE situations, except to use Divine Storm in replacement of Templar's Verdict against 3 or more targets. If you did not take the Righteous Verdict talent, then you can switch to Divine Storm when only 2 or more targets.
Ret Pally Enchants
Avenging Wrath or Crusade Use on cooldown for burst damage.
