That thing is generates an insane amount of AoE aggro.

Super useful for instantly snap aggroing a large group of mobs pulled into camp onto you.

Yes, forgot to mention that one. Won't have to worry about it for ~40+ levels though [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

my #1 issue with paladins seems that only 1/5 will use Flash of Light, the huge aggro generating spell that makes mobs stick to you like glue.

I finally stopped thinking it was rude, and just asked one why he never used the spell, and he just said no one ever told him about it. He than proceeded to tank his brains out and kept saying how excited he was to learn about a core ability of the class, and this was mid 20's.

Its less of an issue once you get root and stun I guess, but, the aggro generation is amazing with FOL, I almost always toss it on something after rooting.

Another really nice addition for a new Pali is one of the items with this effect:

And later a better insta-clicky. This will allow you to speed cast the spell in your first gem slot (blind probably), and cast other spells quickly but not one after another. You do this by clicking spell, then right clicking clicky, then spell again. They are 50-100p, or less at a vendor if you get lucky. And they work in inventory, but not in a bag.

Also, you'll want to find "toggle next target" in your options window, um under "keys" I think, and set that to a keyboard spot.
