Swift Judgement
Paladin · Protection · Row 4 of 7 · Single rank
NEW in Forever Active ability Requires Improved Seal of Fury
Swift Judgement sits in row 4 of the Paladin Protection tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role, and you will need Improved Seal of Fury maxed first. It costs just one point. So the only question is whether opening its row fits your build.
New in Forever. This talent never existed in Classic, so don't go looking for an old version to compare. There is none.

What Swift Judgement does at each rank
A rank is one level of a talent. Every rank makes the effect a bit stronger. The list below uses the exact wording from the beta client, word for word.
- Rank 1: Finishes the remaining cooldown on your Judgement ability and reduces the Mana cost of your next Judgement by 100%.
How to reach Swift Judgement
Row 4 opens after you spend 15 points in the earlier Protection rows. Level 25 is the earliest you can pick up Swift Judgement, and you will need Improved Seal of Fury maxed first.
Is Swift Judgement worth the points?
One point gives you the full effect. The real cost is opening row 4. That is 15 points in the rows above, so take it when the talent suits your build.
