Hand (spell)

Paladin Hand spells are short-term Paladin spells that give their target a powerful effect before fading shortly after.

History
Hand spells were implemented in Patch 3.0.2. They are made up of many of the former Blessing spells. Many of the Hand spells were Blessings that acted as a short-term utility rather than standard raid buff, including the former Blessing of Freedom, Blessing of Protection, and Blessing of Sacrifice spells. In addition, Blessing of Salvation was converted into a hand spell from a long term Blessing. These spells are now known as Hand of Freedom, Hand of Protection, Hand of Sacrifice, and Hand of Salvation.
