    It's a good idea, but I think it would end up being inefficient, and not from a mana standpoint.

    The chances that your one stoneskin every 3-6 GCDs is going to be 100% effective without you timing it is pretty low. My general OT rotation is more like a BRD priority list than a rotation:

    0 - Would it make sense to use cover? > Cover
    1 - Is RoH on mob? > RoH
    2 - Do I have less than 500 mana? > RB
    3 - Is the MT in a high dmg phase? > SS MT
    4 - Are healers/dps going to be taking dmg? > SS healers/DPS as I can
    5 - Am I going to be taking damage? > SS myself
    6 - Do I have full mana? > SSs on MT>Healers>DPS>me

    I think its a good idea if you want to go on auto-pilot and add a little more utility to the group, but you will get more effective results from being cognizant of what's happening in the battle.

    Well, I didn't mean to use it as a way to go into auto pilot and not pay attention to what's happening in the fight. I was thinking about it as more of a utility rotation to use when you're normally just spamming the RoH combo. Which I see way too much of with Paladin off tanks. Heck, part of the reason I can't rotate in SE when I'm warrior main tanking is because of Paladins staying in Shield oath and spamming RoH non stop.

    Yeah that's annoying as all hell.

    I get what you are saying for sure, this is a nice bit of conventional wisdom for people who don't feel like min/maxing on their performance for PLD. I felt I couldn't let it float out there without the more involved strategy being toss in though, haha.

    Edited out my other sentiment because I'm going to make it its own thread.
