Can you show your full current talent setup? It would be nice to know what you gave up to get reckoning.

[brokenrubber]

Do a video on what seals & judgements you use for tanking please.

Increases threat, increases mana regen, easily stacks up vengeance with a slow weapon. I've been championing reckoning since day 1.

[LTwallawalla]

I too would like to know about the Rank one holy shield

[Grnsurfer]

Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

[maxadon]

You can turn on reckoning permanently as well by placing a few campfires under your feet! :)

[rubengonzalez]

I use reckoning for all bosses as pala MT and I've had 0 issues with parry haste. Just make sure you have your good threat and avoidance gear sets for different situations and you should be fine. Don't be scared and use your kit to it's fullest potential.

Dev...i think /cancelaura might be bugged - i can't make it work to remove Reckoning (tried with Redoubt as well...doesn't work on that too) but it works with other things like RF or Blessings... does it work for you 100% of the time?

[LouisCheung]

im sorry im new to Paladin but why Parry haste is a problem of using Reckoning? and also are you using the Rank1 Holy shield only in most of the time?

[MrHeyhomes]

If you are a tank in a guild with a hunter, pay close attention to the hunters opening attacks. You will gain a massive threat lead if that hunter ques up aimed shot into distracting shot into arcane shot, without letting a auto go off. Then play what build you like or press ESC to avoid parry haste at key moments like when you are missing 40% hp...

For threat I use vengeance to 5 stack and switch to righteousness inbetween judgements for the extra dmg per swing. With 3 seconds left on judgement i put vengeance back up until refresh 5 stack judge then back to righteousness. Been crazy threat. Not aure if this is the normal rotation and im not special. Im assuming i can drop reckoning with this but have not yet. Ill give it a go.

[DennisOhwk]

Wow nice on Dev, First time hearing about this! How about this for a future video - a video on gear for heroics (mana tombs & arc for example) and phase 2 prep. Thank you and keep it up

Hello I’m very very new to WoW in general, and reckoning seems like it got nerfed in tbc from what it used to be in regular vanilla. Is that true? And btw I’m barely a level 34 paladin so I’m still trying to figure out what build I want to go into

[Hydro-oteq]

I don't use reckoning and i have no threat issues. I don't put 1 point in let alone 5

[benjolly]

What’s your add ons list and how do you make your UI? Thanks in advance

[adeek]

this is so smart and simple as always, I wonder why not a single damn shitty guide who tells you to avoid reckoning by any chance doesn't give you this macro

[timgillespie]

but none of the builds you showed 2 weeks ago use reckoning? what're you swapping out for it?

[umwtfwasthat]

What are your thoughts on a sanctity aura build?

[max-xkjr]

@ DevTanks yo the macro doesn't work, it only works when i have 0 buffs as soon as i have my blessing and other buffs on the cancel aura macro doesnt work??

[DiscipleduLLC]

i can't make /cancelaura réckoning working to me :s (game in french) any idea ? (i ve try in french in english using the link of the talent nothing work)
