Hi I'm not kind of pro, and I'm playing paladin, anyone can tell how the things will look in 3.2 patch?
I heard that bubble will be dispellable but I can't find this change in changelog.
Also which seals will be the best now (for PvE), the first one (SoR)?
Did the dps went down a lot or maybe it's even higher?
And last one, how about PvP, in 3.1 we're pretty strong, how it will be in 3.2?

Bubble has been dispellable for a while now with
Shattering Throw
from Warriors

As long as you've got
Seals of the Pure
then it will be...
- SoV for bosses trash that lives more than 30 seconds
- SoR for Solo PvE and Trash that doesn't live long
- SoC purely for PvP but if you can keep on your target long enough to get 5 stacks then some argue SoV works out well.

I'm seeing a DPS increase personally.
And last one, how about PvP, in 3.1 we're pretty strong, how it will be in 3.2?
Personally I think we were a little too strong in 3.1...but I am a Mage with a Paladin Alt. It might be harder for some in 3.2 but it's far from being broken. Those who did well before will continue to do well now.
All of this isn't just my opinion, it's the current thoughts of the theorycrafters at Elitist Jerks -

Well, I'm glad to hear your dps went up on test dummies. However, I ran Ulduar 25 last night (FL, Razor & Ignis) and fully raid buffed I used to do 3500-4000 dps (occasionally 4500 dps), but last night I could just scrape off 3100 dps ! In other words, a 10-25% drop - NASTY. I have respec'ed into SotP and changed my glyph to SoV..... Obviously, I could be getting the mechanics of Exorcism wrong (not noticing AoW being up, etc.), but it still seems a very large nerf. The other 2 Ret Pally's in the raid experienced similar drops.

I promise you, fully raid-buffed...if you have any idea what you're doing, it's a DPS increase. Razor/Ignis might not be the best indication, just because you do have to (1) move around a bit in both fights and (2) have to restack SoV on Razor 2 or 3 times. Not ideal.

agreed with inertius...now i have never done those fights but i saw a nice increase with the patch to our sustained dps. i definintely thought with all the posts saying "omgnerfsuswhy" and "retisdeads" posts i was worried...but now that i have been ingame and checked it out..its actaully ok. i may get SoComm for pvp but i may stick to rightoeusness depending what info i find when i try dummy testing..but i think SoR and SoComm are pretty close to being good in pvp the big factor i think is either if u put points into seals of the pure..then SoR might be good in pvp..ok gonna stop ramblng now....idk if this helps tho

If you have any type of gray matter in your skull, and know how to play a ret pally you would have a DPS increase. Horrible latency issues and lag aside of course. I used to be 5th or 6th in our 25 Uld groups and last night i was 2nd behind our mostly BiS pre 3.2 Blood Dk. I was ~4600 DPS on any boss without a damage increase buff or "phase" and ~5100 on things like XT and Kologarn. Last night i saw 5500 DPS almost the entire time on the 1st and 3rd phase of the new 25 man. Those damn worms rolling round underground with my RV and SoCorr ticks dropped it there but it still stayed above where i used to be. All in all i love the new patch PvE side personally, and PvP, you get 5 stacks up and your gonna rape people, you just have to survive to get that >.<

I know Target Dummies aren't a great source for DPS test but I could see the DPS increase within 5mins of testing on a Dummy. It's even clearer on raids.
I know it sounds harsh and not very helpful, but as others have already said, if you are seeing a DPS loss then you really need to check your spec, your glyphs and your rotation.
