Holy Paladin Spells
Welcome to the Holy Paladin Spells page, where we go over all the important spells you’ll need as a healer. We may not cover all spells as some may not be applicable to healing.
We provide you with a visual icon for each spell helping you to associate spells with their icons, the name of the spell, a description for what we believe is best use, the level the spell is gained and the recommended key binding for that spell. Please note that all parts of this page are a guide only and you’re free to use a spell how you wish and key bind your spells any way you want. We don’t guarantee success through this spell use/key binding but hopefully it will help.
Please hover over spell names in the second column to read the in-game tool tip of that particular spell.
