Paladin Skill Count Question

[Rithy255]

Not always, as going into the 5th burst you will have to use DM HS with a RA prepped before Fight or Flight into Requiescat, otherwise you will have to hold your GCD, so no, not always.

Still I personally fail to see how this will be a beneficial consolidation overall, just the fact it can come with some jankiness involved. Personally, I'm more of a, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, kind of person. The change would annoy me too as it would mess with both my muscle memory and the way I organise my hotbars.

There is plenty of ways to optimise hotbar layouts with the current amount of actions, both controller or keyboard and mouse. I find seeing hotbars more full than empty to be more satisfying also.

There's more of a rework coming in 7.0 and the entire rotation might be completely different then, who knows, just got to wait and see. Some stuff may be scrapped entirely or completely different.

Do you know if it was actually confirmed that theirs a rework in 7.0 btw? Like current PLD certainly feels "half finished" to me, but I don't know if I remember them saying this.

I think paladin would certainly benefit a lot from cutting down some abilities as it will lead to them being able to add more stuff to it In DT (Instead of just upgrades), But at the same time I don't really want anything *removed* the solution seems to merge/condense certain abilities Imo.

I wouldn't get my hopes up for this to be another 5.4 monk situation. Paladin is only a tank and not the actual XIV protagonist, a dps.

yeah i forget that anything that isn't a DPS is a second thought, if not your a astro begging not to be reworked.

I think they'll likely at least address the "bloat" issue, but I am not getting my hopes up for anything to do with rotation anyway sadly.
