WoW Forever Protection Paladin Enchants and Consumables
Tooltips: Wowhead Forever DB, exact matches only (build 70532, 28 Oct).
Wowhead wrote this while the beta was capped at 30, so it covers levelling. Level 60 picks are their projection [Unconfirmed]. Tested level 60 data: Not yet published, updated at launch.
Forever's Protection Paladin threatens with spells, so Wowhead mixes caster picks (Mystic kits, Spellblasting, Arcane elixirs, wizard oil) with tank Stamina enchants and shield spikes. Food is the one buy Wowhead's author recommends most: every buff food adds +5% kill XP.

- Weapon: wizard oil and sharpening stones don't stack; use a Rough Sharpening Stone before 20. Oils now work alongside Windfury Totem.
- Food: Spell Power food (Sagefish → Baked Salmon); Westfall Stew and Sweetpaw Jam for zone speed.
- Situational: Swiftness, Free Action / Living Action, Lesser / Invisibility Potion.
