Protection - Increases your chance to block melee attacks by 16%. Block chance increased further by mastery rating.
Retribution - Increases all holy damage done by 20%. Damage increased further by mastery rating.
Holy - Your healing spells also place an absorb shield on your target for 8% of the amount healed lasting 6 sec. Absorb increased further by mastery rating.
That holy thing is interesting. Is this the substitute for Sacred Shield? Sacred Shield is our Mastery now? How exhilarating. Actually, all of the masteries to me seem a little boring.

Free Vala'nyr proc for all heals? Yes please!
I see quite a bit of boring talents too, like plain 20% damage increase, but maybe they'll change them.
Also I don't think Sacred Shield goes away, it's still very useful.
And now holy pallies have, AoE heals, lots of fun tools, and a lot of absorbs...
LOL DAT NEVAR GUNNA HAPPEN MAN..
oh wait.... ;)

Nope, Sacred Shield is gone, unless I'm totally mistaken.

Oh well, we'll have to deal with ONLY 8% absorb for ALL of our heals.

Last I heard, SS was becoming a half hour buff.
We want to increase the duration of Sacred Shield to 30 minutes and keep the limit to one target. The intention is that the paladin can use it on their main healing target. That said, we would like to improve the Holy paladin toolbox and niche so that they don.t feel quite like the obvious choice for tank healing while perceived as a weak group healer.

Search for Sacred Shield on cata.wowhead.com
You'll find the Libram. Not the spell. Sacred Shield is currently
NOT
on the beta.

Just because it ain't listed in the wowhead database doesn't mean it's not in the beta.
Of course if you have access to the beta and still claim it isn't I'll take your word for it.
Just saying, wowhead is awesome but it's not the be all end all place for wow information.

It's possible that it's simply disabled until they decide what to do with it. (Like Shield of Righteousness.)

that 30min is too much and it sound like OP imo. I rather like to put it down to 2-3min duration of Sacred Shield as same as Warrior's shout for example.

I don't see the point, It's better to make it 30min really,
since we get a lot of healing spells and (have tons of) abilities to help out.
And
this is just another ability to help out but not really save someone
(like LoH would, or Divine Sacrifice/Aura Mastery for elemental damage)
it gives some mitigation, but not that it could save tank, and the longer it is, the better for us since we got less stuff to cast etc. Just my thoughts however,
it could be 10min as well so we wouldn't have to refresh it during
fights
.
(except the really long ones)

Mental response

Forum post, however. I'm going to allow it.

For what it's worth, this looks more like Divine Aegis than Sacred Shield. And don't get me wrong, I'm pretty happy with that.
Lay on Hands will provide a nice shield buff....

It had better. They took the Improved talent for it out.
They should really put something in the LoH tooltip to the effect of 'receives double effect from Holy mastery.' So far we've already lost DiGuard, it would suck to lose LoH as a CD as well.
