2 Target Rotations and their problems.

[PyurBlue]

You don't AoE with two targets you do your single target rotation minus I guess dots on two targets if you want to be fancy.
It's not really a problem it's intended.
The potency is designed so that you should do it with 3+ targets.

Two target rotations are, or were, very much a thing and add some depth to DPS rotations. On BLM you replace Despair with Swift Flare, two casts of T3 per rotation, and replace Xenoglossy with Foul, which mixes things up a bit. The reason why this is rarely used is because having just two targets is pretty rare.

I mentioned dots I thought it was pretty clear that I didn't say that quite literally there is no scenario for it.
I don't consider casting Thunder or using Demolish on two targets to be AoE.
When I think of AoE I think of your actual AoE rotation.

I may have misread OP.
But my overall point was that I don't think it's really intended for you to necessarily be attacking two targets at the same time.
I think the devs intend you to do single target damage in that case but then you can be fancy if you want and throw some in there when appropriate.
But in terms of design I think it's working as intended.
