I might move the Flash up depending on how many AoEs are falling down on the mobs or how fast the Blind effect wears off, which I use as a timer for readying the next Flash. Also, one more Circle of Scorn if needed as well, just to keep that DoT ticking.
I was actually more responding to the post above mine in my description of a rotation. Its always good to discuss strategy though!
It should be noted though, that Fast Blade in and of itself doesn't give increased enmity. The reason that people use it in rotation is to make use of the combo multiplier. It in and of itself does little to gain you aggro, which is why if a full Fast Blade -> Savage Blade -> Rage of Halone combo is being used, I suggest that ideally, Fast and Savage blades should be released onto the same target, i.e.:
Enemy 1. Fast + Savage Blade
Enemy 2. Rage of Halone
Enemy 3. Fast + Savage Blade
Enemy 1. Rage of Halone... and so on.
Circle of Scorn should be kept on CD, Spirits too, if you don't need it for the purpose of silencing enemy attacks. Rage of Halone just by itself off combo generates a good deal of enmity, which is why its not a bad idea to use it on its own sometimes, depending on the mobs coming at you and the level of damage output your DPS is dealing with.
When I first hit 50 and was grinding philos with friends, I was stuck with a Darklight Macuahuitl for a little while trying to hold hold aggro against Relic +1ed friends. It was... awkward. lol. So I had to really learn to adapt, even with them holding back some DPS and watching their aggro. That was when I started shooting off solo Rages for a couple of rounds, even if it seemed to go against my instinct.
Anyway! Probably talked too much. Just sharing thoughts
Now that you're on Balmung though, Steel Wolf, if you're running any 8-mans and want to bring in an MT or OT to help you settle into a new dungeon/primal, feel free to shout at me. If I'm on and not raiding/RPing I'd be glad to lend a hand.
