Bolas has compiled a list of current bugs for Retribution Paladin, with new bugs from the Covenant Legendaries in Patch 9.1 but there are also some older bugs that are still present.
A few of these bugs have already been fixed on the PTR:
Tugendhafter Befehl
's buff now refreshes correctly
Nachstrom der Wahrheit
's damage is now the correct amount, but still won't apply the debuff if the initial
Aschewelle
is completely absorbed
New Covenant Legendaries
Strahlende Glut
and
Göttliche Resonanz
precombat casts no longer work
Introduction
In a game as complex as World of Warcraft, there's unfortunately almost always going to be some bugs present for one spec or another. Ret has been historically fortunate to not suffer from as many issues as some other specs, such as Windwalker, but with Shadowlands we've seen a lot more bugs pop up. Usually these would be addressed relatively quickly, however this expansion many of the same bugs have persisted in the game since beta. The issues in particular that inspired this post are to do with the new Covenant Legendaries coming in 9.1, as detailed below, but the older bugs are just as in need of fixing.
Major Issues
These problems all have a noticeable negative effect on damage or gameplay.
Todesurteil
snapshots Mastery on cast, but not Versatility or Strength
As Kyrian, the Pelagos soulbind is best for Retribution, which provides a mastery bonus when
Göttlicher Glockenschlag
is cast thanks to
Kampfmeditation
. However, it's much better to cast
Göttlicher Glockenschlag
after
Todesurteil
, for the burst Holy Power generation and to boost
Todesurteil
's damage. This means that the base damage portion of each
Todesurteil
cast ends up being significantly lower than it should be.
Tugendhafter Befehl
's buff doesn't refresh with additional
Richturteil
casts.
This issue was also mentioned in the last
Paladin Legendary recap
. This usually only becomes an issue when
Richturteil
is cast more frequently than once every 5 seconds, which doesn't happen often outside of
Göttlicher Glockenschlag
. However, with the new Kyrian Legendary,
Göttliche Resonanz
, what should be a buff with constant uptime for its 30s duration ends up only being active for 60-70% of the time, depending on how lucky you get with server lag.
Tugendhafter Befehl
doesn't work outside of melee range.
While it makes sense for
Kreuzfahrerstoß
and normal melees,
Klinge der Gerechtigkeit
and
Letztes Urteil
can both be cast from a further distance away than melee range.
Nachstrom der Wahrheit
damage is lower than should be expected
Its damage is about 10-15% lower than the tooltip states, depending on conduit level. Additionally, its damage is based purely on the amount that the initial
Aschewelle
did, which means that if
Aschewelle
's damage is completely absorbed then the conduit does no damage. This is a problem when one of the only situations you'd consider using this conduit in raid, on
Stone Legion Generals
, it doesn't actually do anything to help burst through
Explosive Steinhülle
s.
Venthyr and Kyrian covenant abilities can be cast precombat with new Legendaries equipped, then swapped, while keeping the Legendary benefit.
As these Legendaries aren't on live yet, this issue only exists on the PTR. The new Covenant Legendaries for Venthyr and Kyrian,
Strahlende Glut
and
Göttliche Resonanz
, can be used to buff precombat casts of their covenant abilities. Once cast, the Legendary can be swapped for another one, while the Legendary bonus still persists for that first cast. For
Ascheweihung
, this means that the first cast will have a 45s duration instead of 30s, and for
Göttlicher Glockenschlag
you'll get 6 free
Richturteil
casts. This works in raids since you can place
Ascheweihung
slightly away from a boss before combat starts, and
Richturteil
has a travel time so it won't immediately put you in combat. These bugs will also affect other Paladin specializations.
Minor Issues
These aren't issues that have a large impact, but should still be fixed nonetheless.
Göttliche Bestimmung
procs with
Sturm des Lichtbringers
equipped buff the projections of the
Göttlicher Sturm
that proc it, as well as the next
Göttlicher Sturm
.
This results in a very minor 20% buff to the
Sturm des Lichtbringers
projections of any
Göttlicher Sturm
that procs
Göttliche Bestimmung
.
Sturm des Lichtbringers
projections can consume
Richturteil
debuffs.
If the initial
Göttlicher Sturm
doesn't hit an enemy with a
Richturteil
debuff but the subsequent projection does, it will consume the debuff to buff its damage. This may be an intended interaction, but it's a negative one if it is intended, since you'd much rather consume the debuff with another full damage
Göttlicher Sturm
than a 20% strength projection.
Another Paladin with
Aura der Vergeltung
active dying doesn't proc your own
Aura der Vergeltung
.
Doesn't occur often, but it's very frustrating when it does.
The free
Göttlicher Sturm
from
Hammer des Bezwingers
doesn't give
Unnachgiebiger Inquisitor
stacks,
Kreuzzug
stacks, or proc
Geweihter Zorn
damage.
Other effects that provide free Holy Power spenders like
Göttliche Bestimmung
or
Himmlische Macht
do work with these abilities, so
Hammer des Bezwingers
should as well for consistency.
Göttliche Bestimmung
and
Himmlische Macht
procs give an extra stack of
Unnachgiebiger Inquisitor
.
Since
Unnachgiebiger Inquisitor
stacks almost never drop anyway, this isn't really a large issue.
Letztes Urteil
ability tooltip is incorrect.
The tooltip for the ability itself displays the older, pre-9.0.5 damage amount.
Conclusion
Although some of the minor issues clearly don't have much of a negative effect, I wanted to list all of the bugs we're aware of to give you an idea of just how many bugs there are that need fixing. In particular, being able to precast covenant abilities with new Legendaries is a bug that absolutely needs fixing before 9.1 releases. Needing to spend
Seelenasche
for a Legendary that you'll only use before a pull would be an awful situation to be in, and obviously isn't intended. Other than the bugs specific to 9.0.5 or 9.1 changes, pretty much all the other bugs have existed in the game since beta. It's very frustrating to know that
Todesurteil
and
Nachstrom der Wahrheit
do less damage than they should, and that
Tugendhafter Befehl
's uptime is too low, only because of bugs that are yet to be fixed. That said, Retribution is far from unique in having bugs negatively affect its damage, and hopefully other specs with similar issues have them addressed as well.
