The Seal of Corruption is a slightly modified equivalent of the Horde's [Seal of Vengeance].^{[citation needed]}

Tips & Tactics

Primarily, it is meant as a tanking seal. It allows the paladin to put stacking, Damage Over Time threat on a target.

This is very useful while tanking as it allows the paladin to switch targets while still maintaining aggro, and it allows the paladin to generate instant threat in the event of a threat wipe. Note, however, that until many charges have built up the amount of damage it deals is not enormously high and thus neither is its threat. As a result, a tanking paladin may prefer [Seal of Righteousness] (especially when coupled with a fast attack speed weapon) to build threat at the beginning of fights.

It can also be useful in PvP against rogues who use [Vanish] as the Damage Over Time component will unstealth them. It combines well with Reckoning as the extra attacks may also apply it.

The debuff will stack up to five times on the target and will last the full fifteen seconds, remaining even after a paladin (or multiple paladins) judges the Seal. If multiple paladins attack the same target with this Seal, it will only stack up to five with no further debuffs being applied, however, doing so will keep the stacks up allowing each of the paladins to each Judge for the full effect.

This seal is listed as magic, not melee, so it can not miss but it can be resisted.
