The class previews for World of Warcraft: Cataclysm are finally finished. Last on the list of previews are were the stoic Paladin. Being a pretty solid class already, and knowing that they would gain vengeance as a mastery while tanking, players were left wondering what else would be changing.

Healing Hands – This will be a new healing spell learnable at level 83. This is meant to give Paladins a method of healing multiple players at once. It will likely be a short range AoE heal to players around the Paladin on a 15 second cooldown an last 6 seconds. Blizzard describes it as almost like a Healing Stream Totem, and Paladins will be able to cast other abilities while it is still healing.

Well, it looks like Paladins will be gaining another heal, a part time ally, an ability that blinds opponents, and a nerf to the way beacon of light works. To find out all the details check out our preview to the pending Cataclysm changes to Paladins.
