I have always thought Sword Oath was for soloing. ������
Going sword oath is something that can help speed things along when you're familiar with a boss, but not really needed. I doubt many people will complain or care. Really I don't think it ever matters much except in high end content where you're trying to squeeze out every last drop of dps you can to clear a ex trial or savage fight while progressing, or to speed clear them quickly on farm. In a dungeon you shouldn't ever feel pressured to go sword oath, it's just something you 'can' do if you're confident in your ability to hold agro with it and in the healer to keep you up without that buffer.
