Mão do Protetor is way more accessible in this tree than it was before. Before it was locked behind Luz dos Titãs but now you can pick up Fé na Luz instead. Fé na Luz makes spending that GCD on Palavra de Glória just a bit safer especially if you use Holy Power for it.

Speaking of Fé na Luz, it's actually a viable choice to pick now for some passive damage reduction. It's 15/30% block for 5s after you press Palavra de Glória and in normal play, you'll have ~25% uptime on it or ~7.5% more Block chance.

It's now easier to pick up Santuário for some passive damage reduction while in Consagração.

Julgamento do Cruzado is now less costly as it's not gated behind a low power 2-point node.

Inimizade Concentrada has been redesigned so it's not as punishing on raid fights with split Single Target and AoE phases. The old version was not playable at all on some bosses this raid tier and the only choice was to take Escudo Pairante or to unspec the node. Now, you can pick up Inimizade Concentrada for some extra single target damage while still maintaining the ability to hold AoE threat.

Luz Interior is back! The beloved Legion Legendary is now back as a talent option to modify Olho de Tyr and make it the heavy hitter that people remember.

Cooldown reduction galore: You can get sub two-minute cooldown on Bênção de Proteção Mágica and Escudo Divino, sub one minute cooldown Olho de Tyr and Defensor Ardente, and even sub three-minute cooldown on Impor as Mãos! This is on top of retaining access to sub two-minute Guardião dos Reis Antigos and one minute Sentinela/Ira Vingativa.

Separate Ressonância Divina and Invocação Vivificada into two separate nodes that can be taken together. With the removal of , Invocação Vivificada might not be powerful enough to take on its own so being able to combo it with Ressonância Divina for stronger Preço Divino could make it more appealing for some situations

Give value to Protection for Bênção Forjada a Luz and Alívio do Cruzado. Neither work with anything in the Protection kit so we're just not going to take them if things don't change.

Luz Efêmera will likely need a buff for Protection as the shield will never outvalue spending that point on Selo da Ordem or even on another talent node all together.

Redesign Punição so it's not such a blatant DPS increase. Encouraging kicks and interrupting is good for dungeon gameplay but make it more nebulous like movement speed or even cooldown reduction on Repreensão itself.

Armadura da Fé should be switched to trigger on Palavra de Glória for Protection. This would help align it with the newly buffed Fé na Luz talent. Getting armor when your primary Holy Power spender gives armor is ... weird. I would also consider moving it up a row. It's currently exceedingly difficult to select as a talent below the 20-point gate.

Selo da Diligência has two issues. First, it's increasing the cooldown on Julgamento - not reducing it. The second is that the tooltip is deceptive for Protection. Protection has a 50% reduction to the cooldown of Julgamento on the spec aura, which is modifying the value of cooldown reduction provided by Selo da Diligência. It's really giving .25s/.5s reduction for Protection. The tooltip should be fixed to reflect this.

Buff the healing options on the left side of the tree -- Caminho Dourado is very weak, and Pós-imagem has some weird behavior with free procs like Desígnio Divino. Paladins should have more viable off-healing options in their class tree like Druid's Vigília da Natureza or Shaman's Conselho dos Ancestrais and none of the current options hit that mark.

Protection Spec Tree Suggestions

Make Aconselhamento de Uther playable. This is the hardest talent to include in any build right now for Protection and that's because the tree structure has six required talents after the 20-point gate for difficult content: 1 in Ira Santificada, 2 in Defensor Resoluto, 1 in Protetor Íntegro, 1 in Dádiva da Val'kyr Dourada, and 1 in the Inimizade Concentrada/Escudo Pairante choice node. That leaves 4 points to pick between Olho de Tyr/Luz Interior, Momento de Glória, Baluarte da Fúria Íntegra, Resistência Final, and Aconselhamento de Uther. Out of these options, Aconselhamento de Uther is strictly utility and is a lower priority pick. One solution could be to swap it with Selo da Represália so all the choices below the 20-point gate are pure damage and power increases, while the middle section has some flexibility to opt into utility with some flex points. That said, I could see this being tabled till a future patch as it could require more structural changes to the tree that aren't on the table right now.

Luz dos Titãs needs some love. In a lot of cases, it's just overheal and ineffective healing. This is disappointing as it blocks access to Selo da Caridade, which could be very nice to use.

Reconsider Devoção de Tirion and move it to the class tree. This could be a useful talent for all Paladins, especially if it were in the healing section of the class tree. It could be extremely hard to spend a Protection spec tree point on this talent.

Change Momento de Glória to 80% cooldown reduction on Avenger's Shield. This is mostly quality of life. All of Protection's abilities have a cooldown that are a multiple of 1.5 and Momento de Glória messes with that. It creates these micro-gaps in the rotation that are less than a GCD and are very awkward.
