    new paladin aoe question.

    What rotations do you guys use on trash groups?

    The skill total eclipse looks a like tp drain with no emnity and low potency, but do we use it anyway? or is there a better trash rotation?

    GB combo reaches its peak on 3 enemies with a full ticking DoT of ~356 potency per GCD.
    WoH combo has ~213 potency per GCD.
    RA combo has ~253 potency per GCD.
    TE has 110 potency per GCD on every enemy in reach.

    TE surpasses Woh and RA combo at 3 enemies in reach and GB combo at 4 enemies.
    In my experience you need the same amount of Flash on a mob group comparing TE with any of the other combos except WoH. If you have to much enmity stay in shield oath.
    If my math is broken or incorrect please correct me.

    Not really, trash is trash. Flash - CoS - Flash - FoF - Te x 4 - Flash. Repeat the last 2 till dead.

    keep all mobs on you, killing them is dps's job not yours, you just "help" them with TE, no matter what you do keep them hitting you then you are good.

    Might as well do nothing but flash then? It's everyone's job to kill enemies.

    As for "rotation", depending on how heavy the numbers are your team is pulling, it's quite easy to just
    IF: 4+ enemies
    flash > CoS > TE x 3 > Flash (if needed) > TE until 3 or less enemies are alive> then
    REPEAT UNTIL (enemies dead)
    Goring / RA combo's

    ELSE:
    Flash > CoS > Goring > Flash > new target > Goring

    2 flashes with the current BS state of flash should hold agro forever

    After the enmity change you can probably Flash twice and hold aggro forever and them FoF dump all your TP into Eclipse each pull. Of course you might wanna space out those Flash ti get maximum uptime on Blind.

    As everybody said we only need to flash once or twice and CoS in the opener then spam TE and flash just for the sake of using the full blindness effect. I normally put a GB on the enemy that has the most HP before getting into TE spam.
