Helter Skelter, and this is FaceRolling?


When I'm in a group, and we're starting a Boss fight, my cast order looks like the following:


- Sacred Shield
- Avenging Wrath
- Judgement (wisdom) as I run into the fray - range = 10 yards
- Crusader strike
- Divine Storm
- Exorcism (if AoW procced, if not, skip)
- Consecration
- Crusader Strike
- Judgement
- Divine Plea
...
...
...
.
Bascially running down "FCFS" (first come first serve) using my action bar as shown above. If two spells are available, use the one to the left. (again, as viewed on my action bar)
.
For the occasional Boss, this is the entire fight, and it's pretty easy. (ie, a "faceroll")
.
But, that is pretty rare. Usually it looks/sounds more like:
.
- Sacred Shield
- Avenging Wrath
- Judgement (wisdom) as I run into the fray - range = 10 yards
- Crusader strike
- Divine Storm
- Exorcism (if AoW procced, if not, skip)
- Consecration
- Crusader Strike

-Restart Rotation
-CRAP! MANA!

.
THAT is more "the norm" for the raid Boss fights I've been in. And in PvP, it's even more complicated.
.
HOW IS THAT FACEROLLING?!?!?!?!?
.
I sit & watch range DPS do their pew-pew, and the healers clicking on Healbot, whilest I'm foundering around trying to do 3, 4 or more things in different directions, while still trying to "do my job" (DPS)
.
All the while, I read "Retpal = faceroll" and I get pissed.
.
And to make things worse (and my fault - no blame here) I don't have Vent, so I *should* be reading the battle text.
.
Except there's no frikkin way I can.
.
During a lul in a recent ToC fight, I noticed the phrase "Well, have Balth bubble you". I have no clue when that was typed or who I was supposed to bubble (or with which bubble, we have 3)
.
Sorry for the rant... and maybe it's just because I'm still pretty dang new to all out, balls-to-the-wall fights, but calling this class "super easy" is just mid boggling.

EDIT - drat... formatting is all cattywompus again, so I had to use periods to separate the paragraphs
