Haha, daamn I remember those days, I rekt everybody with my retri pally :P They patched it really fast though, because it was ridicilious. On arena ,(I played 3vs3) you would see 3 retri pallys, you might aswel give up, no healing could outheal the burst dmg at that time xD
Swifty says he doesn't know how to play prot pally then he goes on to say "I'm just going to put all my abilities on my action bar and smash my keyboard". Sounds like you know how to play just fine, my friend
I'm getting pretty sick of blizzard's mentality that tank specs need to be doing insane damage, why? just fucking why? you should either be tanky or doing damage, not both.
It's. A. Beta. And if you've been around long enough to complain about tanks gaining damage, you should know tank specs are ALWAYS broken during beta and become completely irrelevant in pvp after.
This video was great! I have to say I've barely been looking at your videos lately since I just found them a bit boring. But this was great. Good editing, good choice of music and good old Swifty being funny. This gave a good smile on my face. Thank you!
watching legion videos i don't even know if i'm going to buy this shit when it comes out. every class got ridiculously stupid simple, some of them extremely OP others just underpowered
they will balance stuff out, hence why it is still beta. Maybe simple, yet you can get more buttons through talents and sub rogue seems to have a decent amount
People have been saying this since Cata, and it's garbage every time -- even long standing players are calling this complete garbage. But, in the end, play what you want.
your videos are getting back to how they used to be! there going up in quality with every upload! keep up the amazing work! and the editing is so great!
The entire game is broken. Tanks should absorb damage, not deal it. Same with healers. They should heal, not heal themselves and their entire party to 100% hp AND be able to solo a dps class. Fucking stupid.
Coroner88 "They should heal, not heal themselves and their entire party to 100% hp AND be able to solo a dps class. Fucking stupid." - "AND". Integral part of the sentence.
YES, back to the way they should be. WOTLK prot palladin was a beast but seeing Swifty play Legion prot just brings back those days. XD I'm glad I main a Palladin
yo Swifty the broadcast was recorded on may 27th buddy :D, I was hunting that video to cheat out the talents, took me a while to get it, but honestly your channel is great, really great work man :D
I was almost tempted to come back to WoW for legion, then I saw this video and all the memories came rushing back. Thanks for saving me some time and money!
It's weird that they'd give the combat riding abilities to paladins and not to death knights, since iconically and commonly death knights have been known to be efficient horsemen casting spells and swinging their weapons while mounted. Even in the RTS's death knights were exclusively mounted, and it'd give a bit more usefulness to the "pale horse" trait aside from always leaving your friends in the dirt. On a side note, they should add a speed lowering feature that allows you to lower yourself so your questing buddies can keep pace. No point in getting to a location ahead of your friends if you have to wait for them anyway.
Hilarious video. I really do enjoy following Swifty again when this kind of effort is put into the videos. Head bash duel win was ridiculous. ALL HAIL SWOFTY. ps gief beta key
Funny thing, it doesn't seem that he has the pvp talents, hence no 10 yard charge when using Hammer. Or maxed out artifact weapon for Avenger's Shield that explodes for more damage and give absorb. DPS numbers will come down when final tuning hits. This makes me think back to Pre-Burning crusade patch when ret paladin were out of control 1 shoting people with Divine storm.
When it comes to WoW I've learned over the years that whenever a new expansion comes out, the LAST class you'd want to play is the most overpowered class at that time. Because the nerfs start rolling in hard soon enough.. *knocks on wood *
is this like older WoW because it was much simpler to play when i played ret paladin until lich king then when i used a trial in pandaria i had no clue what i was doing. The talent system was the biggest thing that turned me off to wow in terms of game mechanics the other was just time i couldn't keep up in gear
I remember playing my first pally in BC days, HOLY SHIT they were amazing. I just left him at 100 though, haven't done much raids since WOTLK. Just like to level then leave again. Still, a very fun class!
its a talent it gives you a mounted speed buff for 4 seconds. (basically the Diablo 3 crusader Steed ability) much of legion got diabloified you can see this in many of the new abilities and the new system for legendaries.
Incoming comments about WoW being dead and unplayable. And ebout a class that can oneshot. And THEN they say vanilla was the best wow... where oneshots were common. Unbalanced pvp? Best thing ever! fundamental part of vanilla.
During last patch of WotLK i had full BiS prot paladin PvP with alot of ICC25hc items and wrathful stuff combined. With a rsham as partner i literally shat on everyone in arena. Was doing great in 3v3 aswell but i forgot what combo i played. Been quite some time since then and i quit wow shortly after Cata release.
Hey I just started play wow with paladin, should I play prot paladin or ret paladin, ( lvl 100 paladin ) Been playing ret for while now wonder if prot is better or not?
This reminds me of when the idiots at Blizzard changed the Priest and Paladin spells that could do both damage or healing. It was the Disc spec Penance spell and the instant shockadin spell. They were both insanely OP and it took the idiots at blizzard weeks to fix it. There wasn't any reason to play anything other than Disc priest and holy paladin. My paladin could one shot people with that one instant cast spell when it crit (around 50% or more of the time) no joke.
Prot pala OP in legion? As if they arent now already, I just tanked mythic mannaroth for almost 40 sec without any healer alive and then the boss died. So prot pala OP in legion or working as intended?
I can't quite put my finger on it, but the game looks a lot "fresher" in legion than in WoD. It's probably all the fancy lighting effects from updated spells.
gnomes can`t be pally they can`t reach the light
they shouldnt even be able to war
LOL XD!!
but they are able to craft so they stay
Reminds me of playing a ret pally at the end of BC after the pre-Wrath patch was released. And that actually made it live...
you shoulda seen rets in cata during dragon soul release... they single handedly one shot AV raids and technically solo'd dragon soul.
Haha, daamn I remember those days, I rekt everybody with my retri pally :P They patched it really fast though, because it was ridicilious. On arena ,(I played 3vs3) you would see 3 retri pallys, you might aswel give up, no healing could outheal the burst dmg at that time xD
Not even close. Did you even play Ret during Cata? The class was hilariously weak outside of wings.
Swifty says he doesn't know how to play prot pally then he goes on to say "I'm just going to put all my abilities on my action bar and smash my keyboard". Sounds like you know how to play just fine, my friend
I'm getting pretty sick of blizzard's mentality that tank specs need to be doing insane damage, why? just fucking why? you should either be tanky or doing damage, not both.
Right.
It's.
A.
Beta.
And if you've been around long enough to complain about tanks gaining damage, you should know tank specs are ALWAYS broken during beta and become completely irrelevant in pvp after.
If your prot pala topped dps charts then your team members did something wrong. Also which patch would that have been during wotlk?
Ha! Monk tanks, freaking unbelievable! As 19 twinks, they can one shot enemies!
I don't even play anymore but I still tune in to see what Swifty is up to.
no one really play it anymore
This video was great! I have to say I've barely been looking at your videos lately since I just found them a bit boring. But this was great. Good editing, good choice of music and good old Swifty being funny. This gave a good smile on my face. Thank you!
Incoming nerf in 3

...
Destro Locks nerfed
Yeah thats what someone said 3 builds ago...
Swifty's content is just so much better now
watching legion videos i don't even know if i'm going to buy this shit when it comes out. every class got ridiculously stupid simple, some of them extremely OP others just underpowered
they will balance stuff out, hence why it is still beta. Maybe simple, yet you can get more buttons through talents and sub rogue seems to have a decent amount
beta.
this the beta man give it a chance
People have been saying this since Cata, and it's garbage every time -- even long standing players are calling this complete garbage. But, in the end, play what you want.
Petrof We are all entitled to our opinions, just cause some famous youtubers say otherwise, does not mean they are correct.
Legion pvp=smash 3 button =1shot=win .
your videos are getting back to how they used to be! there going up in quality with every upload! keep up the amazing work! and the editing is so great!
The entire game is broken. Tanks should absorb damage, not deal it. Same with healers. They should heal, not heal themselves and their entire party to 100% hp AND be able to solo a dps class. Fucking stupid.
Coroner88 "They should heal, not heal themselves and their entire party to 100% hp AND be able to solo a dps class. Fucking stupid." - "AND". Integral part of the sentence.
right cause that happens all the time
Coroner88 It does.
I must admit your videos are way more enjoyable since you got yourself an editor.
Is it just me or does he seem like a real person again?
That is what happens when you play wod...
I was thinking the same thing. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed one of Swiftys videos
I love the editing on these videos, makes it a million times funnier! :D
YES, back to the way they should be. WOTLK prot palladin was a beast but seeing Swifty play Legion prot just brings back those days. XD I'm glad I main a Palladin
i wasnt, but i am last months ;D
2:21 Is that monk's Blackout Kick implemented as a Paladin ability?
Love this video Swifty! Really nice editing! Keep it up man! :D
yo Swifty the broadcast was recorded on may 27th buddy :D, I was hunting that video to cheat out the talents, took me a while to get it, but honestly your channel is great, really great work man :D
this was fun! swifty's a natural no matter what toon.
10:00 swifty playing tennis with the mage lmao
Melee classes got crazy buffed in Legion while range classes are gonna suffer big time.
I was almost tempted to come back to WoW for legion, then I saw this video and all the memories came rushing back. Thanks for saving me some time and money!
i heard that in pvp, year gear literally does nothing at all. Except the artifacts. Is this true?
What is the song from 0:00 - 3:30 ??
How long have you been playing WoW and you didn't know what races could be Paladins? What have you been doing?
It's weird that they'd give the combat riding abilities to paladins and not to death knights, since iconically and commonly death knights have been known to be efficient horsemen casting spells and swinging their weapons while mounted. Even in the RTS's death knights were exclusively mounted, and it'd give a bit more usefulness to the "pale horse" trait aside from always leaving your friends in the dirt.
On a side note, they should add a speed lowering feature that allows you to lower yourself so your questing buddies can keep pace. No point in getting to a location ahead of your friends if you have to wait for them anyway.
*Cammare* so nice to see the "older" swifty back
Hilarious video. I really do enjoy following Swifty again when this kind of effort is put into the videos. Head bash duel win was ridiculous. ALL HAIL SWOFTY. ps gief beta key
Funny thing, it doesn't seem that he has the pvp talents, hence no 10 yard charge when using Hammer. Or maxed out artifact weapon for Avenger's Shield that explodes for more damage and give absorb.

Hey when will the next burst damage video come out want to see how affliction turns out
When it comes to WoW I've learned over the years that whenever a new expansion comes out, the LAST class you'd want to play is the most overpowered class at that time. Because the nerfs start rolling in hard soon enough..
*knocks on wood *
0:55 song?
Blaming about prot paladins and wants to be nerfed while mages can kill you in few seconds in every expansion. Fucking logic
nice editing! looking forward to see vids like this!
Usually I hate these but you're funny. You had me with the monocle :D
Each time he destroyed a person, it made me sadder because I know the bat is coming.
Alt ctrl shift E for walk? I just hit the back slash above the numbers on the right side
is this like older WoW because it was much simpler to play when i played ret paladin until lich king then when i used a trial in pandaria i had no clue what i was doing. The talent system was the biggest thing that turned me off to wow in terms of game mechanics the other was just time i couldn't keep up in gear
this video brought much joy and laughter to my day thank you swifty
Nice to see a video well edited :)
Any good news for the Horde? ... still disapear in this new Expansion?
What i don't get is, in wod they scaled down the numbers. and in legion they multiplied them by like 5
More videos like this SWIFTYYYYYY, good stuff man
Man i realy liked that video the editing and everything , more like these!!
I honestly believe Swifty dislikes Paladins...
No need to go fishing for the nerf, they will nerf us to the ground before the second Patch drops
THIS IS SWIFTY!
Back to basics, just him and WoW
How did he get the wings? Thought they took that away for prot palas
The smirk on your face alone ... hilarious :')
will have to hope they smooth that damage out, cause holy cow that's OP.
Funny as hell, Swifty! Every time I hear you say "Prot Taladin" in this video, it almost sounds like you're saying "Proctologist"
I so Love when Swifty going full out on LoLing
I remember playing my first pally in BC days, HOLY SHIT they were amazing. I just left him at 100 though, haven't done much raids since WOTLK. Just like to level then leave again. Still, a very fun class!
Im new but how does he automatically get level 110 when he creates characters.
Since this is beta, it's safe to say that Prot. Pally is finished based on previous expansion feedback. Roll paladin today!
Might be a dumb question, but how do you mount up so instantly?
what is the ability where you can mount up in combat...i seen him do it multiple times
its a talent it gives you a mounted speed buff for 4 seconds. (basically the Diablo 3 crusader Steed ability) much of legion got diabloified you can see this in many of the new abilities and the new system for legendaries.
Do blizz really "test" this and let it go to beta?
That's what beta is for. To test shit like this.
it's called beta testing for a reason
Pretty sure this was in alpha aswell. and they must habe done some internal testing first.
pwnnr13 it takes time to balance it out properly, and alpha is early testing for family and friends. alot of broken stuff wont get fixed until beta
beta is for testing...
How does he get the wings on a prot pally?
Incoming comments about WoW being dead and unplayable. And ebout a class that can oneshot. And THEN they say vanilla was the best wow... where oneshots were common. Unbalanced pvp? Best thing ever! fundamental part of vanilla.
AP mages one love.
How is Prot Warrior in Legion Beta?? I'm skill tank when it comes to PVP.
i like that the wep and shield glow and you get a light crown
That PvP match was exactly as all the games I am in...but with the difference that I am in the Horde side, stuck in the spawn zone..... :(
Are those unit frames an addon or part of legion?
Make more videos like this one..that editing so hilarious!
What was that juggle death combo at the end?!
so they basically gave paladins the same ttk as current boomkin? :P
During last patch of WotLK i had full BiS prot paladin PvP with alot of ICC25hc items and wrathful stuff combined. With a rsham as partner i literally shat on everyone in arena. Was doing great in 3v3 aswell but i forgot what combo i played. Been quite some time since then and i quit wow shortly after Cata release.
So overpowered. If game launches like this I'm not buying.
When did IceFrog join the WoW balancing team?
well they have 3 months til launch so it should be balanced by then right?
aww arent you cute.
Eleriol84 what are you on about??
I'm afraid that blizz will nerf prot pallys too much, and they will become uplayable :(
Wow is unplayable.
Hey I just started play wow with paladin, should I play prot paladin or ret paladin, ( lvl 100 paladin ) Been playing ret for while now wonder if prot is better or not?
This reminds me of when the idiots at Blizzard changed the Priest and Paladin spells that could do both damage or healing.
It was the Disc spec Penance spell and the instant shockadin spell. They were both insanely OP and it took the idiots at blizzard weeks to fix it.

Prot pala OP in legion? As if they arent now already, I just tanked mythic mannaroth for almost 40 sec without any healer alive and then the boss died. So prot pala OP in legion or working as intended?
how much HP will there be in legion
Anyone know if they fixed this crazy shit in the new build? :)
Are the 5 keys all there are now?
what was the macro and talents you had?
Swifty, how can you kill that mage and still in horse?
Somehow I see a paladin in swifty's future LOL.
Did all paladins in Legion Starts in Max level ??
a paladin with charge???
judgement-sprint
If they dont fix that before release, you know there will be 1000 boosted pallies on every server instanly.
Glad you made this video, hopefully it gets them fixed!
Our glory days have returned!
what ability was aoe healing?
so basically prot is now how ret was at the beginning of wotlk
Your editor must have so much fun making these videos.
You are correct.
Well you've been doing a great job :P
Swiftly should really introduce you as the editor,he seems to usually forgets about things like this.
He has a bit on the IRL channel and I've been on his stream. I'll be in an IRL video later this week.
I see this channel is on its way up:-) gj swifty gr8 vid
nice to see prot pallys getting their wings back
This is the swifty that I love I was laughing the whole video keep it up swifty love the videos
subbed , always loved your vids swifty .
How did you got a lvl 110 boost?
Did more spells get removed???
OMG, I see the future in expansion and all in PVP was a tanks XD
yeah.... that will never happen
Waiting for you to also make a vid about warriors and their unnecessary 3 leaps. That'll be great.
can you link your addons? please and thx
this reminds me of prot warriors hitting you for 90% of your hp with one shield slam at low bgs
This is palance.
I can't quite put my finger on it, but the game looks a lot "fresher" in legion than in WoD. It's probably all the fancy lighting effects from updated spells.
