In this video, I continue my walk with you through all of the weaponskills, spells and abilities of the Paladin, continuing from level 50 onward to 90, starting with going over the significant changes to 1-50 from Shadowbringers to Endwalker. Every action is described in how and when is a good way to use them, and every time it is necessary, the rotation is re-explained to make sure that it is clear. We cover both Single Target, AoE, and 2 targets specifically due to its unusual style.
We also look into ways to work around unexpected situations like needing to heal yourself in ways while still continuing an attack rotation.
If you find some things are going a bit fast or a bit slow, I invite you to speed up, or slow down or even pause the video for your convenience! I will admit there are some parts of the video that have relatively large blocks of text that not everyone will be able to read while also listening, before I move on to the next subject.
If you have not seen my Level 1-50 Gladiator to Paladin guide, while it is from Shadowbringers, it is still up to date aside from some minor changes addressed in the comment section:

Some of the potency numbers in tooltips may be slightly off due to a massive buff to paladin in the recent patch 6.08. Rest assured that this does not change the rotation at all but simply means that you do more damage!
