The Paladins lack of an AOE Emnity attack.

I have noticed it can be a little more difficult to keep hate at times (in 60 dungeons) but overall it is fine. Flash does still generate good enmity, not just make mobs immune to blind. Shield Swipe has also been given an enmity boost, it was mostly forgotten but is quite potent when it procs. Just have to watch your mobs, cycle through rotations, see what your DPS are targeting.

An AoE enmity attack would be nice but it's not entirely necessary.

It's always interesting when people see a pld marking but yet ignore the marks and then wonder why wipes happen. Possibly because that player knows the limits of the class and burning down one mob at time where pld is strongest will keep parties going for longer instead of having the pld chasing a target because everyone is AOE frenzy. I used to mark targets but when dps just ignore what I mark then it just became a pointless exercise in effort when my marks will just be ignored so I stopped doing it. I'm enjoying DRK right now but I'm not sure what tanking class I want to play anymore. PLD weak AOE Enmity generating is very noticeable when paired with a DRK in DF for the MSQ dungeons and watching a DRK just rip hate right off me when flash doesn't even hold a candle to unleash. Something has to be done about it.

Flash getting a buff for paladins might be over due--I would agree Unleash is much better, and Dark has many other aoes where paladins only has a very weak circle of scorn. Maybe increasing the flash multiplier would be all we needed, tied to our flash trait.

Please do not ruin Royal Authority by making it AOE. We finally got something resembling combo options, and Royal Authority would definitely get its single target viability removed if it was AOE. Paladin AOE enmity is fine, and lack of AOE damage is an easy weakness to deal with. If you're having trouble with AOE enmity, I suggest wearing melded jewelry.

Personally as a long time Pld player I would have liked to have seen some sort of damaging aoe move for Pld in this expansion. It doesn't have to be strong or anything just a aoe that does some damage is all I am asking. I also would like to see Shield Swipe buffed in dmg just slightly too, as of now I see it as a dps loss, where I only use it to gain a bit of Tp back, but lose out in dmg, while I could be performing my new Pally combos. As of now Shield Swipe effectively slows down Pld dps for very minor Tp regen, and I have to mt to even use Shield Swipe...poor conditions when it comes to regaining Tp imo.

Gaining a consecrate effect would have been nice (aoe around us that pulses for some damage). Sadly it was not to be.

^ yeah I would be in favor of that

Would taking flash away from them even prove anything? Are there any DRKs out there who actually use flash?

This would be the weakest nerf to warrior I could imagine. I flash once per pack, if that. Overpower and Steel Cyclone are more than enough to hold hate, and they do damage too.

No.
