- Retribution looms for those beyond redemption.Template:TCG quote
Retribution Aura is an instant cast aura that surrounds the paladin. If an enemy hits the paladin or a party member that is within 30 yards of the paladin, the attacker will take Holy damage. Like a group version of [Thorns].

Talent Improvements
- [Improved Retribution Aura] (2 Ranks) will improve the damage done by the aura by 25/50%
- Retribution Aura is not affected by +spell damage.
- [Aura Mastery] will extend the radius of all the Paladin's auras to 40 yards.
Tips & Tricks
- Retribution Aura best suits tanks, as it is a permanent costless source of threat. As it works "on-hit", it is especially suitable for multi-mob scenarios, as they will hit a lot for (usually) little damage per hit. In this case, it synergizes well with [Holy Shield] and [Blessing of Sanctuary].
- When there's only a single paladin in a 5-man group or the tanks group in raid, this aura is best for a group that can take a few hits. For the non-tanks group in raid, Devotion Aura is more useful.
- Since there is no resistance to Holy damage, the paladin's enemies will always take full damage (unless they resist it by the base miss chance).
- Damage is not increased if the attacker is under Judgement of the Crusader. However, it does benefit from a possible party [Sanctity Aura]. (The same restrictions apply for Blessing of Sanctuary.)
Related Equipment
- The Protection-centric Tier 5 Paladin Armor Set, Crystalforge Armor has a 2-piece set bonus that increases all damage done by Retribution Aura by 15.
Wrath of the Lich King
- This aura is set to undergo a major revamp in the upcoming expansion, intended to make it the main aura for Retribution Paladins. Talented, this spell will grant those under its effects 2% increased damage and 3% melee and spell haste. The reactive damage component will also receive benefits from spell damage. With the planned removal of [Sanctity Aura], and the buffs to [Devotion Aura] (Grants those under its effects 3% bonus to healing received), this aura will probably no longer be used by Protection Paladins, but Retribution Paladins, as the name would initially suggest.
