(being worked on every now and then, this message will be removed when this whole guide is complete)
Since we have 8,000 Prot palas in the guild, i thought i might as well give my 2 cents about important things to know.
Important Abilities
__________________________
Holy shield - increases your block chance by alot and reflects a little bit of damage when you block. Should always be up.
Sacred Shield - makes you take less damage. Usable by hpala healers, but don't depend on them to use this on you.
I suggest making a macro that goes:
/target YourName
/use Sacred Shield
Divine Plea - gives you mana over time. should always be up, via a talent in the bottom-right of the Prot tree (Guarded by the Light)
Rotation
_____________________________
Just hit stuff when it's ready, i guess.
Glyphs

Major
A few good ones here.
Hammer of the Righteous (Hit one extra target with this ability. Great for aoe tanking.)
Divine Plea (Take reduced damage while plea is up, 3%)
Seal of Vengeance (Have 10 extra -2.5%- expertise while you use seal of vengeance. Great if you aren't anywhere near cap, which you probably won't be)
-there are a couple more, let me get back to that-
Minor
These don't really matter. For paladin, they're all kinda mediocre. The good ones are...
Lay on hands (Reduce CD on your fullheal)
Sense Undead (1% damage on undead when you track them)
Blessing of Kings (Reduced mana cost to use BOK and GBOK)
Talents

Holy tree:
Shouldn't need any skill points in here. Seals of the pure for SoV (Vengeance) if you don't know what else to spend stuff on.
Prot tree:
First Tier
Ret tree:
First Tier
Deflection (Parry Chance) 5 Levels.
Benediction (Reduced mana cost for most spells). 5 Levels.
Both of these should be 5/5.
Second Tier
Improved Judgement (Reduced CD on Judgement). 2 Levels.
Heart of the Crusader (Increased Crit Chance). 3 Levels.
Improved Blessing of Might. 2 Levels.
Only thing worth anything here is Improved Judgement.
Third Tier
Vindication (Reduce enemy attack power). 2 levels.
Conviction (Crit Chance). 5 Levels.
Seal of Command (AOE damage on every attack you do). 1 Level.
Pursuit of Justice (Disarm-protection and some Movement speed). 2 Levels.
Seal of command is mandatory, and Pursuit of Justice is great too.
This is as far down the ret tree you should go.
