    Hello,

    You do not have the level of gear we are looking for so I am denying this application. However, I will make a few suggestions to help you improve your character.

    1. Focus on mastery. Mastery will decrease the overall damage you take and also reduce the chance of taking a full melee attack. You should get as much mastery as you can from gems and reforging until the sum "dodge% + parry% + block% + 5% chance to miss" reaches 102.4%.

    When you reach this point, you are guaranteed to block or avoid every melee attack, which will make your damage intake feel less "spikey" as easier for the healers. After this point, additional mastery becomes useless so you can pick up other stats instead.

    With that in mind, your soulshifter vortex will also become less valuable since the mastery gained from the trinket would be pointless. I realize you don't have any other options, and the high stamina on that trinket is definitely nice, so it is worth keeping for now. However, I would consider replacing it when you find better trinkets and move closer to the 102.4% value I described above.

    2. Glyph of Exorcism is awful for protection since you should never (with few exceptions) use this spell. I would recommend replacing it with Seal of Truth or Word of Glory glyph.

    The following website is dedicated to protection paladins and full of useful information about gearing, talents, etc. I would highly recommend taking a look :)

    I wish you luck in your search for a guild.
