    I can somewhat get this in an 8 man, shirk can feed you threat all day. Are paladins really doing 4 man dungeons in sword oath? I have no freaking clue how you can hold threat from a top tier dps efficiently as a paladin sitting in sword oath in a 4man, let alone the gains of your dps being offset by the healing increase from the healer...

    Maybe its something that starts working at 70 when you start getting geared up? In leveling dungeons, every experience I have with switching to sword oath basically means me using (many) more rage of halone, getting a moderate dps increase, and the healer having to actually heal..

    no 4 man content is a whole other thing, i was talking about 8 man content only. if your running around in a dungeon in sword oath the whole time then there is a 99.9% chance that you aren't tanking shit, mobs are probably running everywhere and people are probably dying :/

    I had issues with aggro for like the first day. But that was going from a year of being fully geared and melded which a lot of people in the duty finder don't do I notice. Suddenly everyone is the same ilevel and Samurais hit like freight trains. After a bit of tightening up, its fine now.
