Explaining the Flash of Light Build for Holy Paladins

Using a Flash of Light build is not for someone looking for the safe, easy way to do things.  A Flash of Light build is for those holy warriors looking to absolutely maximize their Holy paladin’s full potential.  Don’t get me wrong,

Wintergrasp Imbalance

So last week Blizzard announced exactly how Wintergrasp works when it comes to giving advantages to a faction that has consistently lost many Wintergrasp battles in a row.  Up until recently, my server has been pretty good at trading Wintergrasp back
