Development[edit | edit source]

Mantra of Retribution (as Retribution Aura) was first revealed at BlizzCon 2010 as a Tier VI skill but had never been seen in gameplay.

Before the July 2011 Press Event, Retribution Aura was renamed Mantra of Retribution. Skill tiers were also removed, and Mantra of Retribution became a level 9 skill.

Beta[edit | edit source]

When the beta started in September 2011, Mantra of Retribution remained a level 9 skill. The skill system was once again overhauled for the Beta Patch 13 in February 2012, and Mantra of Retribution was classified as a Conviction skill and moved to level 15. For Beta Patch 14, the "Conviction" category was renamed "Mantras" and Mantra of Retribution was bumped up to level 21.

Previous Versions[edit | edit source]

See Retribution Aura for the original version of this skill.

In Other Games[edit | edit source]

Retribution Aura will be a familiar skill to players of WarCraft III and World of WarCraft, which was a skill utilized by the Paladin in those games.

This skill is an updated version of Diablo II's Paladin Offensive Aura Thorns. Thorns only reflects physical, melee damage.
