This time around in Addons We Love I want to share an addon that I’ve used since….. gosh, sometime in WotlK. I think that’s probably the longest I’ve stuck with any one addon ever, now that I think of it! CLCRet (Retribution FCFS helper) is a retribution paladin rotation helper and an amazing learning tool for those new to ret paladin dps. Yes, it’s an old addon, but it is still updated regularly when patches and expansions might change the state of play for ret. I know there a lot of players who regard CLCRet almost as training wheels, but that’s fine with me. Most of those players just use other addons to supply the same information anyways, so no different in my eyes. :)
CLCRet is important to me as our raid’s occasionally offspec’d healer. Because ret is not something I play often, except for certain fights or things like dailies, it helps me stay on track with a rotation that, while simple, is also pretty easy to screw up and takes some time to recover. The key to understanding the ret paladin rotation is still all about learning the priority for spending and generating your holy power, not just hitting buttons when the icons tell you to, so be sure you are all caught up on the how’s and why’s here before you get started with CLCRet!
