Holy Paladin Configurations

PvE

In PvE, holy paladins are fairly restricted in which glyphs to get - simply because some glyphs are just so much more powerful or useful than others. The common set up is:

Major Glyphs

• [Glyph of Beacon of Light]
• [Glyph of Seal of Wisdom] or [Glyph of Seal of Light]
• [Glyph of Holy Light] or [Glyph of Flash of Light]

Minor Glyphs

• [Glyph of Blessing of Wisdom]
• [Glyph of Lay on Hands]
• [Glyph of the Wise] or [Glyph of Sense Undead] or [Glyph of Blessing of Kings]

Players normally choose between Glyph of Holy Light or Glyph of Flash of Light depentant on which is their main spell: [Holy Light] or [Flash of Light]. A lot of paladins will however get Glyph of Holy Light regardless. Due to the mana effectiency of [Flash of Light], some FoL-type paladins will get Glyph of Seal of Light instead as mana is less of a problem then for HL-type paladins.

The third minor glyph slot however is up to your own personal opinions. None of the three listed present a clear advantage over the other so it up to personal tastes.

PvP

The common set up is:

Major Glyphs ^[1]

• [Glyph of Holy Shock]
• [Glyph of Seal of Light] or [Glyph of Seal of Light]
• [Glyph of Salvation] or [Glyph of Flash of Light]

Minor Glyphs

• [Glyph of Blessing of Wisdom]
• [Glyph of Lay on Hands]
• [Glyph of the Wise] or [Glyph of Sense Undead] or [Glyph of Blessing of Kings]

Retribution Paladin Configurations

PvE

There are a few obvious choices for DPS Paladins:

Major Glyphs

• [Glyph of Judgement] because it's the only one that directly increases damage.
• [Glyph of Seal of Vengeance] assuming you don't already have 214 expertise rating...
• [Glyph of Consecration] saves GCDs which can be better used to trigger other abilities.

Also very helpful are

• [Glyph of Hammer of Wrath] really makes a difference on boss fights. By the time you're getting low on mana, you suddenly have a free, hard-hitting, oft-critting attack.
• [Glyph of Crusader Strike] less useful but, of course, you use CS a lot more.

My personal picks are Judgement, Vengeance, and HoW unless I have enough expertise rating on items, then Avenging Wrath. Although, I have a personal liking for [Glyph of Divine Storm], essential for AOE grinding.

Minor Glyphs

Paladins don't have many good choices for Minor Glyphs. The ones that are musts for Ret Pallys are:

• [Glyph of Lay on Hands] is a must for everyone.
• [Glyph of Sense Undead] because you can always throw it on when you're in a dungeon heavy with them.

Other than that, it's your choice of [Glyph of Blessing of Might] or [Glyph of Blessing of Kings] for buffing, either soloing or in a party. I also find [Glyph of the Wise] can help in a pinch, when you are really running low on mana and need to get some back quickly, but I rarely use it.
