What has changed
Patch 12.0.7 (June 16th)
While Retribution Paladin receives no direct changes in 12.0.7, there are a couple of introductions that need addressing.

- The Omnium Folio serves as a gradual power increase, lasting throughout Midnight.
More information on both of these systems can be found in the Gearing section of the guide.
