So I play a retribution paladin (dd) and started about 2 months ago and I just cant get through thorgast to farm for my legy. I tried every possible way pulling only single mobs every time, playing tank, playing healer, everything. It just doesnt work. Even Stage 1 and 2 are too hard most of the time.
Any help or tips from fellow paladins?

Wow i started a month ago on my ret and i clear all on layer 8 easy with 180 ilvl.
What power are you picking? My general rule is it its not usefull for the end boss i dont pick it.
My fav powers are spenders costing 1 less holy power. And extra generation in combat.
Not trying to be a dick as your ilvl is pretty low but this does sound like a case of “git gud”. I recently leveled my paladin alt and was clearing 8s as holy with 170 ilvl. All paladin specs are among the best in the game for torghast at least for average runs (some builds have some crazy op comps). The hardest torghast zone (besides twisting) IMO is one of this weeks which could also be part of your frustration. The ember one (name?) which has the life %per sec debuff is tough with bad gear. It was harder than early twisting corridors IMO.
I suggest you do the campaign and maybe casual pvp to get better gear. Also interrupts and cc are very strong. Depending on spec and covenant some of the choices can be instant wins (divine toll hoj + wings + how charges). Another option is just to group.
What ilvl are you?
168
That would be your problem
You should be able to clear floor 1/2 maybe but you are super low in ilvl, just completing the campaign and world quests will get you 184-200 area
I would focus on that first. Pally tank is across the board one of the easiest specs to do torghast with
Alright thank you. I`ll try that then
Just as a side note ilvl is king right now in this expansion. 10ilvl you will feel a drastic power gain and obviously more as you climb
Finish your covenant campaign. That's not difficult and after you'll have 10ilvl above what you got now
I can run you with my prot pally
Its just depends on Run too I have a Shad priest IL 201 and some weeks I clear solo like a breeze other weeks I die at the bosses or trash alot. I hav a 195 frost Dk i blowwww throu trash but come boss half the time he eats me its wild. Recently I moved to only doing it in 5 man groups. Lot more fun its like a real dungueon with powers.
Yes finish your covenant campaign .. get that armor and upgrade it .. it upgrades to what like 190 ? That is a HUGE difference from 168. Seriously you will feel extremely powerful compared to what you are currently.
Get that gear .. then get some world quest trinkets (181'ish)
Maybe do some PvP ?
Get your ILVL to 190 then go own that place as PROT
Top campaign gear is 197 but costs a fair chunk of anima to finish, but it's v good and the campaign ends with gifting an LFR weapon token too for an easy 187 weap. It'll also boost WQ rewards too.
yup .. doing all that will get non M+ or Raiders up to par to easily do content such as Torghast
If you’re NA I can run you through for leg drop
Im eu tho. Got everything but the needed soulashe
Im at 177, ran as prot with my eyes closed basically
Go with a group.
i play alone
I'm just suggesting that if you go to the pre-made tab, there is a Torghast option. Joining a group is quick and runs are usually pretty smooth. Pulling packs as a group, with other dps that have aoe and cleave, is no big deal.
