Total Eclipse after all the fuss about pali aoe never see anyone use it why?

To do single target rotation even though at 3+ mobs it's a dps gain?

Actually you need 4 mobs for it to be a dps gain when you have goring blade, with holy spirit you need 5 mobs to be a dps gain. That does quickly start to limit situations where it's truly beneficial to use.

It only limits them if you pull one pack at a time. Unless pulls are microscopic later on I can't imagine a situation where you wouldn't have 5+ on you since 2 packs should be at least 6.

No. The real reason people aren't using it is because it's donkey poop unless it's absolutely the last option, while you're being swarmed by a mob of enemies that either do no damage to you or in an instance prior to getting your heal. Or in a group with a healer that can't or wont aoe. Or in a group with a scholar.

I'm really confused by this post. What is Total Eclipse doing that's preventing healer DPS? And what does it have to do with being healed? You know it's usable inside Shield Oath right? Like... wat

Given that most melee seem to be afraid of doing aoes, and the artificial walls in dungeons often limiting pulls to around 6 or 7 it's not unheard of for a pack to be smaller. When you pull like that it usually doesn't take long to get the pack down to 5 or less. Yeah of course use it, but really I'm more concerned about all the melee dps that don't use aoes cause they're afraid of being low on tp than whether or not a pld has a tiny dps loss on a pack of mobs.

People haven't figured out they need to pack Invigorate and Goad yet. They'll get there.
