This ebook is a detailed guide to mastering the Paladin.

As you know, the Paladin is a hybrid who can tank, deal damage or heal, and as such there are a lot of different aspects to cover. A good paladin guide should cover various talent builds, gear for all purposes, gameplay advice for all class roles, and more.

I think this guide does a good job of doing all that. The 260 pages are filled with insightful comments, advice and discussions.

It takes you from the fundamentals of which abilities to use and when to use them, to teaching you how to heal, tank and DPS effectively. There’s also a chapter on PvP, but some of it is still from a level 70 perspective. Though they did add strategies vs Death Knights now.

The parts I liked best were:

• The equipment guide (Tons of gear options here, from quests, crafting professions, instances and world drops. Also separate sections for your different roles)

• The talents section (In-depth discussions of every talent, updated for WotLK.)

• The gameplay tips throughout the guide. This is where you actually learn how to play. This is what separates a good paladin from a bad paladin.

The guide covers a lot more than that, but you can read more about that on Killer Guides’ website. In my opinion, it delivers on most of its promises although there is always some hype of course.

As for future updates, they are free and this guide has been updated at least 9 times the past 2 years, so there should hopefully be timely updates available going forward.

If I had to complain…

Some things are not updated for 70-80 yet, namely: PvP strategies, addons & macros (many of those still work, but not all).

Conclusion

This guide will be a great help to most paladins. With some more fine tuning it could be even better.
