Turns out patch 3.0.8 *will* include epic spellpower goggles for plate!

I second the engineering question by Fluke. I’ve been googling, but aside from numerous people commenting on it I have not yet seen any resolution.
We get DPS shafted by ret nerfs, and now engineering as well (though the engineering pattern chronologically happened before the nerfs)

I realize this is dragging up an old blog posting, but I’m curious if you’ve heard anything about new Engineering goggles for Holy in Wrath. Thus far, there are only two pairs of Plate goggles, and they’re clearly intended for Ret and Prot.

Will you be updating the list soon with WotLK considerations?

I realize this is a bit of an old post, but since you mention Kailee’s Rose, it also seems worth mentioning the +12 Spellcrit gem.

With 4/5 persons in your party you can keep a 100% rotation of the drums up. That means every 15 seconds you will get 600 mana back. Thats why paladins should roll it aswell if your guild has alot of LW’s.

Drums are nice, but they can be used by anyone to buff the party, it doesn’t have to be the paladin that uses them. It makes far more sense for the drums to be used by someone who gets some other benefit out of Leatherworking – such as the BoP armor suitable for rogues, druids, hunters or shaman – rather than for a pally to take Leatherworking solely for the drums.

I wouldn’t really put Leatherworking at “Losers”.
Simple due the fact you can buff the raid up alot with drums which is sometimes needed in the end-game encounters.
So buffwise/raidwise its one of the best professions for paladins.

I’m nitpicking here, but one advantage that leatherworking would have over other professions would be the various drums.
