Protection Paladin: Rotation

Single target

1. 
   Righteous Fury always on when tanking. It lasts 30 minutes.
2. 
   Seal of Fury kept up at all times.
3. 
   Judgement on cooldown for threat, or held as your taunt when something gets loose. It doesn't consume the Seal.
4. 
   Holy Strike on cooldown. With Iron Creed (60 build) it also cuts damage taken by 10% for 6 seconds, so time it before a big hit.
5. 
   Consecration as mana allows. It is your strongest threat on packs but expensive at low level.
6. 
   Exorcism on Undead and Demons.

Pulling a pack

1. 
   Consecration drop it where the pack will stand. Only the first four enemies take full damage.
2. 
   Judgement on the mob you are least sure of; swap targets to spread threat with Holy Strike.
3. 
   Swift Judgement when a mob runs to the healer and Judgement is on cooldown: reset it and taunt again. Don't spend it on damage.
4. 
   Holy Shield from 40: keep it up. 30% block for 10 seconds or 4 blocks, with Holy damage on each block. Unconfirmed

Cooldowns and emergencies

• 
  Templar's Bulwark before a known burst or when your healer can't keep up: absorbs your whole health bar for 8 seconds. 5-minute cooldown, 4 with Sacred Duty. Applies Forbearance.
• 
  Divine Protection an emergency only: you can't attack while it is up, so threat stops. Shares Forbearance with Bulwark.
• 
  Lay on Hands a full self-heal every 20 minutes, at the cost of all your mana.
• 
  Hammer of Justice your main way to stop a dangerous cast. Call it with your partner's interrupt.
• 
  Divine Shield a wipe-saver; your damage is halved while it lasts.
