Best Gems updated for 3.3
Not much has changed since 3.2 for Holy Paladin gemming. This is a list of the best Gems that are used in 3.3 for Holy Paladins.
Best Meta Gem:
Everytime this meta gem proc's, it gives you 600 mana. As an added bonus, it also gives you +21 Intellect. If you're not using this meta gem as a Holy Paladin, you're doing something horribly wrong.
Best in Red, Blue and Yellow Slot:
As much as I hate to hear the continual debates about stacking intellect and the fact that it's so damn boring and easy to simply stack one stat without having to think about it, you'd still be more than correct to gem solely for intellect.
There's not much exception for it anymore either. With the quality of gear on the rise, and the ease of getting good gear, there's very little use to explain where the cut off is before you stack intellect.
The more intellect you have, the more mana you have. The more mana you have, the more you can cast Holy Light and the more mana you will get from Replenishment and Divine plea.
It's that simple, ignore your socket bonuses and stack Intellect!
If you're a Jewelcrafter (which you should be even if you're only slightly caring about your Paladin) ensure that you put in 3 of these gems in your gear.
Something to Activate your Meta Gem:
This great little beauty is great to activate the Insightful Earthsiege Diamond meta gem. It will satisfy both the need a blue gem and need a red gem without having to use up two gems slots. It'll also help activate your socket bonus.
If you have a metagem that gives intellect, it's a good idea to use the Nightmare tear to activate this bonus.
Note: All this assumes that you're using the Holy Light spam healing style.
