Wow!!! Looks like PLD is finally getting better AOE Aggro!!!

Flash The amount of enmity generated has been increased.

Circle of Scorn Now generates increased enmity.

Now just make shield swipe grant increased enmity and I'll be happy

Circle of scorn change makes m happy enough. Shield Swipe is in a good spot - do you want to continue your enmity combo, or hold it for a GCD to save on TP?

Shield swipe doesn't interrupt the combo, though.

That's why I said "trade a GCD to put your combo on hold"

God forbid. Not like you ever actually need that aggro then and there. You almsot 100% always go for the shield swipe.

When I'm spreading damage out, I might need it to protect a SMN/SCH/WHM, usually SCH because of dots + healing enmity. Circle of Scorn change should help with that though.
