Detailed Protection Paladin Talent Builds

Talent choices for Protection Paladins offer quite a bit of diversity and ability to choose talents to suit the content you are doing. As such, even though typical "default" builds are listed below, we strongly recommend that you acquaint yourself with all possibilities.

Notes:

Level 30: 盲目之光 is recommended as a sensible default due to its potential use as a unique, instant CC.
Level 35: The choice between 破咒祝福 and 不败之魂 should be made on an encounter-by-encounter basis. Is there something you can cheese with 破咒祝福 and can afford to lose 保护祝福 to pick up?
If you're having trouble with SotR uptime on specific bosses, feel free to switch to 圣洁怒火 for more raw Holy Power generation especially during Wings. It will allow you to heal more often and get more consistant SotR uptime.
Covenant choice has no impact on your talent choices in Raiding.

This build is a general go-to for M+ for doing your weekly keys. Feel free to adjust the build for these considerations:

If you want to push keys, you should switch over to 神圣之盾 as it will provide much more defensive benefit.
Covenant choice has no impact on your talent choices in Mythic Plus.
If you're having trouble with SotR uptime on specific bosses, feel free to switch to 圣洁怒火 for more raw Holy Power generation especially during Wings. It will allow you to heal more often and get more consistant SotR uptime.

Protection Paladin Talent Breakdown

Tier 1 (Level 15) Talents for Protection Paladin

神圣之盾: This is the best defensive talent on this row. It allows you to block magical attacks while increasing your passive block change against melee attacks. However, there are some very extreme situations where it can't block magic such as magic melees.
多面防御: Strong and consistent against incoming physical and magic damage. This is also a passive DPS increase. This could be useful for fights with large tank nukes or just wanting more DPS.
祝福之锤: More flexible resource generation. Can be used out of combat for more Holy Power in Dungeons. The third Charge helps fill out the rotation. It can hit the same target up to three (3) times, applying damage reduction each time. However, performance will vary as it can hit less than 3 times or not at all depending on the mob's hitbox. The absorb is flat so it loses value as you do more difficult content.

Tier 2 (Level 25) Talents for Protection Paladin

复仇原点: This is a good talent in dungeons for easier initial threat as 复仇者之盾 hits more targets. It provides an absorb to help smooth damage intake when you get frequent 大十字军 procs. This is your go-to talent on this row for dungeons and Mythic Plus.
十字军审判: Increases your Holy power generation by granting a second charge of 审判 and resetting its cooldown on 大十字军 procs. This is your go-to talent on this row for raiding.
光荣时刻: A weak talent that gives you three (3) 复仇者之盾 with no cooldown. It can be a burst of Holy Power but 大十字军 procs can consume one of the casts meaning you lose one.

Tier 3 (Level 30) Talents for Protection Paladin

制裁之拳: Synergizes pretty well with 神圣复仇者 or 圣洁怒火 for more stuns!
忏悔: A long-duration CC. It puts you in combat if you're too close to the enemy being CCed, and has limited application in terms of target types. You should only consider this if your group composition needs another crowd control.
盲目之光: A solid CC option. Due to it counting as being as a Blind, it is very unlikely to be DRed by other classes, and sometimes works on mobs that are immune to stuns.

Tier 4 (Level 35) Talents for Protection Paladin

不败之魂: The reason to take this talent is to be able to use Ardent Defender more often and help smooth out your damage intake. The Lay on Hands and DIvine Shield CDR are nice bonuses but are rarely the reason you take this talent. This talent can synergize well with 决意守护者. You should take this if you don't need 破咒祝福.
骑手: This should help you get around faster. Pick this if you want mobility especially in open world content.
破咒祝福: This talent replaces Blessing of Protection and provides total immunity to magic effects (damage and application of debuffs) to a target. It is worth noting that direct spells will be thrown on the next highest aggro target if caster enemies only cast spells, The spellwarded target is considered immune to them.

Tier 5 (Level 40) Talents for Protection Paladin

神圣意志: Adds a proc to the rotation when you use a Holy Power spender to get another Holy Power spender for free. It can proc off itself leading to some fun chain procs! This is a solid DPS and defensive talent. This should be the default defensive choice on this row in most situations.
神圣复仇者: This is a burst Holy Power talent. You won’t use it in normal scenarios. It could be useful for hard hitting raid bosses or M+ if you plan your Holy Power usage around it. It can lead to a lot of healing output if you use it well. It can also be used for burst damage if planned well. For DPS, you should sim it against the other two options.
炽天使: It converts some Holy Power to extra secondary stats. There could be a one off situation where you want to take it but more often than not, it will be worse than the extra self-healing from Divine Purpose. For DPS, you should sim it as for some covenants and gear setups, it can perform quite well.

Tier 6 (Level 45) Talents for Protection Paladin

守护者之手: Allows you take advantage of the missing health bonus on WoG when it's cast on other players. This could be a useful talent in raids if you have 闪耀之光 procs you don't need to use on yourself.
圣洁之地: The go-to talent on this row for M+, as it provides you with the ability to kite mobs without relying on classes that bring slows.
圣光审判: This is a talent that provides passive healing to your group. This is much better on single target raid encounters or fights that require priority damage. Take this if you don't have opportunities to off-heal with 守护者之手.

Tier 7 (Level 50) Talents for Protection Paladin

圣洁怒火: It powers up your 复仇之怒 so you have consistent 正义盾击 uptime regardless of your gear level. You should take this in situations where you are struggling with uptime or just want more healing.
正义保护者: This should be your general default talent in most situations. This talent gives more 复仇之怒 uptime with some cooldown reduction. It also reduces your 远古列王守卫 cooldown by ~2 minutes. It could be useful in some situations if you combine it with 神圣复仇者 for really strong burst damage. It can be a viable choice in Mythic+ and Raiding with good cooldown planning. This talent works really well with the 皇家法令 conduit.
决一死战: It's a strong defensive CD that can work with good planning. M+ is the most common content type where this is taken. 神圣召唤 can be paired with this talent and 不败之魂 for more frequent usage.

War Mode for Prot PaladinWar ModeWarmode Talents

无拘自由: Turns Blessing of Freedom into an undispellable speed boost. The undispellable part becomes very important when dealing with classes that can steal it, as this prevents them from doing so altogether.

荣耀战马: This lets you get around faster as your Divine Steed lasts longer. It also augments your Divine Steed with a knockback and immunity to movement impairing effects for its duration.

光明战士: This is a nice talent for world questing in War Mode. It increases your DPS so you can kill mobs (or the other faction) faster!
