Paladin DPS Gear Rankings - Retribution

DPS Cycle

Seal of Command Judgement of Command Crusader Strike
Updated for 2.3.2 (Jan. 8)
- Rankings now using the 2.3.2 Crusader Strike change which lowers the importance of spell damage by around 60%. Season 3 arena gear is now better than Season 2 arena gear for DPS even with the resilience.

How are the items being ranked?
- Now available for both SOB and SOC! - I am Assuming an 8 (or 10 second depending on talents) damage cycle of normal attacks with SOC/SOB and then Judgement of Command or Judgement of Blood and Crusader Strike.
- Based on this attack cycle, I create a DPS value based on the item's strength, attack power, agility, +hit, +crit and +spell damage.
- Also relative mob level is taken into account as you can see in the full attack table below.
