What's changed in Forever

  • Blizzard gives Protection “stronger threat, mana, and survival options”, like Templar's Bulwark: a shield for 100% of your health.
  • Judgement no longer uses up your Seal, and Consecration is learned by every Paladin at 20.
  • Blizzard notes Paladins have no interrupt and no way to slow enemies, which matters in PvP.

From Blizzard: Class Deep Dives: Paladin (Oct 15)

Class traits are what each class is known for, adjusted where Blizzard's Forever posts changed it. Blizzard's aim for Forever isn't perfect balance: it's for every class to feel valuable to the groups it joins. Talents can still change in hotfixes. Player numbers update about once an hour.
