Fix paladin. Only Class in the entire game that cannot...

TP is a resource that actually matters to PLD. Having a GCD AoE dps move tied to a TP cost (like it does on WAR) is one possibility.

You can't give PLD a TP based AoE without changing multiple things about the class. PLDs have the worst TP management of all tanks, giving them a 100+ TP costing AoE is going to absolutely murder them. WAR gets away with TP cost because they have Equilibrium, Steel Cyclone/Decimate, Inner Beast/Fell Cleave, and Berserk pacification. Every single one of those gives WAR more TP to play around with. PLD has none of those tools so giving them another TP sink would kill their TP with no ways to get it back.

Also, losing Darkside when there are active mobs, even for a few seconds, is just like losing uptime on Maim or Heavy Thrust. It's a serious enough error that you should prioritise fixing that first before trying to troubleshoot any other weaknesses in your rotation. Even aside from dps, it locks you out of a significant portion of your toolkit, mitigation moves included.

Also, using Flash when there are active mobs, even for a few seconds, is just like losing uptime on Maim or Heavy Thrust, but an even worse dps loss. It's a serious enough error that you should prioritise fixing that first before trying to troubleshoot any other weaknesses in your rotation. Even aside from dps, it locks you out of a significant portion of your toolkit when you bottom out on MP, mitigation moves included, like Clemency, Shield/Sword Oath and Flash.

PLD has none of those tools so giving them another TP sink would kill their TP with no ways to get it back.

But nothing prevents them from giving PLD both a TP-costing AoE AND a mean to restore its TP.
