    Spamming Flash is boring

    This is mainly in regards to dungeon runs as Paladin. Gather all the mobs, Hallowed Ground, Flash Flash Flash Flash Flash Flash Riot Blade Flash Riot Blade Flash Riot Blade Flash. It's not fun.

    With some battle adjustments coming in the near future, why not do something like make Shield Swipe a conal attack? It'd be way more fun for the tank, they would do a bit of damage and it wouldn't even be as strong as Overpower since it requires a Block first. Maybe even just making Circle of Scorn give the same hate as Spirits Within so that the tank can reserve some of their Flashes for the actual Blind effect instead of being forced to use it non-stop ASAP or else lose hate.

    And that's precisely why I don't spam Brayflox HM speedruns.

    Wow I don't think I've used flash that much in an entire dungeon. I'll combo it with savage and rage, maybe a provoke if need be.

    OP spam will lead you to TO starve before all the mobs even dead. Put in Steel cylclone and manage your Wrath stacks as well as occasionally flash, now that is fun..

    It's also a little more interesting because you have to keep all the enemies in front of you since overpower operates in a cone. You can't just stand in the middle and flash everyone. Mildly challenging when you're moving around trying to dodge AoE and all the enemies start bumping eachother out of the way.

    You can always not use Flash. Won't take long at all before things will get very interesting.

    Some people are like Slinkies - not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs
