Paladin Adjustments (3.?)

[FallenWings]

Why does Sword Oath "aggro issue" need an answer? Pre-3.0 PLD had problems "not" pulling aggro of the main tank when they were trying to push DPS as off tanks.

A Sword Oath PLD can still hold hate but would have to spam Rage of Halone like they did before. Naturally nowadays PLD's want to be using Royal Authority and Goring Blade more which as you guessed; doesn't have Increased Enmity. Therein lies the issue of tanking with Sword Oath while dealing optimal damage.

A Warrior can do so because their highest potency is ON their main Enmity Skill which they would rotate all the time to deal optimal damage. This is further increased by Maim and Deliverance also indirectly increasing their Enmity by directly increasing the damage of their Enmity skills. Sword Oath does not create the same effect for Enmity because it is just flat 50 potency.

A Dark Knight can do it because... That's kind of their thing. A DA Power Slash generally seals the deal for enmity in grit and out of grit. Sauce it with Darkside having the same aforementioned affect on their enmity skills and you can see why the two are capable of holding aggro in their DPS stances.

This is true of FoF, as much as it's true of Darkside or Maim or Deliverance.

It's much more appropriate to compare FoF with Berserk and lolBlood Weapon since their application is more aligned.

SwO is somewhat equivalent to Maim and Darkside without the benefit of directly affecting your enmity skills.
Although I may be wrong now due to our overall increased average potency per GCD. I still think that 50 pot is much fatter than 5%.
