The dev team recently shared all of the new upcoming class sets for World of Warcraft The War Within Season 2. It seems that Blizzard wants to share them to the community as soon as possible so feedback can be provided to ensure that not only do the new Tier Sets are appropriate for each class' identity but also making it powerful enought to compete with the other sets.
Having that in mind, we will go over the proposed new Paladin Class Sets to see whether the new design philosophy will befit all of the Paladin specializations.

The War Within Season 2 Paladin Class Sets
Here are all of the possible Paladin class sets coming to Season 2 of The War Within.
In The War Within Season 2 Class Sets will have their 2-piece set bonus designs split by role (Healer, Tank, Ranged damage, Melee damage) and their 4-piece set bonus designs split by spec. We wil utilize unique keywords for each role in their 2-piece sets and then modify how each spec interacts with the keyword in their 4-piec set. These keywords will be tied thematically to our upcoming raid – Liberation of Undermine.
Holy
- (2) Your healing spells have a chance to apply Insurance! to their targets that heals them over 15 seconds. Insurance! is consumed if any ally drops below 40% health to heal them.
- (4) Set Bonus: Divine Toll applies Insurance! to allies it heals for 8 seconds. Divine Toll’s cooldown is reduced by 1 second each time you spend Holy Power.
Protection
- (2) Set Bonus: Each time you take damage you have a chance to activate Luck of the Draw! causing you to cast Guardian of Ancient Kings for 4 seconds. Your damage done is increased by 15% for 10 seconds after Luck of the Draw! activates.
- (4) Set Bonus: While you have Luck of the Draw! Shield of the Righteous refunds 1-3 Holy Power and extends the duration of Luck of the Draw! by 0.5 sec, up to 10 seconds.
Retribution
- (2) Set Bonus: Your spells and abilities have a chance to activate a Winning Streak! increasing the damage of your Templar’s Verdict and Divine Storm by 2%, stacking up to 10 times. Templar’s Verdict and Divine Storm have a 12% chance to remove Winning Streak!
- (4) Set Bonus: When you lose your Winning Streak! you get the last Holy Power spent back, and for 4 seconds you cannot lose Holy Power and the damage of your Holy Power abilities are increased by 10%.
And that covers all of the new Paladin Class Sets for Season 2 of The War Within. Although these bonuses are not final, it seems that Blizzard is going for an RNG-based mechanic which is goes hand in hand with the new Goblin-centered raid and content. You can check out the official post, here.
