Retri paladin was very good since 7.1.5 patch has been released.

After few nerfs was still pretty good since RETRIBUION passive gave him good advantage.

Since many raiding groups learn fights over the time, retribution paladins fell quite behind all other classes.

Latest rankings shows approx. 15th place, depends on fight type. I consider it quite disturbing.

I believe people who made this change to happen still watch the numbers descent and will fix it.

Just wanted to note, since I've seen a lot of discussion about the Retribution passive lately: we consider that to mostly be a fun extra perk for flavor, and not a core part of the Retribution toolkit. By that I mean we wouldn't, for example, say: "when everyone's alive Retribution is low, but sometimes people die, so Ret is fine."

Just wanted to give some clarity there!
