Paladin -- You're doing it wrong

[Kyt]

Generally I do goring blade, (popping FoF right before), rage of halone combo, drop shield oath, do RA, reapply goring blade, req right before FoF ends, and spam holy spirit until oom. (then reapply goring blade/etc) Rage of halone's enmity generation in shield oath is not to be underestimated..

I THINK that doing a halone combo into unbuffed goring into your magic rotation is better, just because if you use FoF in your opener you're going to miss out on I think 2 RA combos? And then your FoF cooldown will not be up quite after your magic rotation. If you start your rotation without FoF you can line up your cooldowns in a way that syncs really well with both phases of your dps rotation. Parses will tell, but that's what I'm thinking currently.

This is correct, if you start with FoF opener youre just sitting on full mana, holy spirit spam is our highest dps so its a waste to not use it asap

I do that simply in order to gain a bonus in initial enmity. Holy spirit spam (in SwO with Requiescat) is our highest dps but it's pointless if the boss starts running after the dps.

I haven't had any issues with this opener in ex primals and the dps are usually going off pretty hard right away
