Levelling in Northrend - 0/56/5

[Luminaar]

Hi all, newcomer here

Can i ask you an advice about the specc i'd like to use to level in Northrend? I've doubts related to three talents: Seals of the Pure, Ardent Defender and Judgements of the Just

Here's the link to the specc, but i'm not sure skipping these talents is good or not to level. Can you help me?

Many thanks!

Looks solid, although I think a couple of minor changes would be in order.

For leveling/prot dps SotP is awesome. Cheap way to increase dps.
JotJ should ALWAYS be taken. It's just too good to pass up.
For leveling purposes, AD is useful. It largely will depend what kind of leveling you'll be doing - are you planning on leveling more by soloing/questing or are you planning on hitting as many instances as possible as well? If you're planning on hitting instances fairly often, AD is of much more use (IMO).

Take a look at Lore's prot DPS spec for 70's. It's a good place to start.

I leveled as a full ret. And it was really easy'n'fast! Took me 5 days. I don't remember using more then a hand full of breaks due to drinking between 70 and 80.
I guess if there are always 3+ mobs around to pull, protection leveling might be cool. But if you plan to go in instances, protection is better ofc.

Not sure, but I think for leveling the 5 pts in parry could be switched to Benediction.

Thx for the fast answer!

Can i ask you why are you spending point in Divine Guardian and Improved Hammer of Justice and not, for example, in Guarded by the Light or Deflection?

I'd like to level as prot to learn well my future duties

It'll be slowly but, i'm ready and willing to start!

That's something that Lore would have to answer, I just copy/pasted that link from another thread.

GbtL is at its best once you are doing more instances. Ditto Deflection. If you're soloing everything, the need for those talents is lessened. That's why I wanted to know if you were leveling by soloing/questing or if you were going to hit instances fairly often.
