Since you seem so willing to be linked to things to read, here's something you should have read before posting: http://elitistjerks.com/f15/a34-foru...dated_1_28_09/

Among the many things wrong with your post:
1. Lack of consistent capitalization.
2. Poor formatting - you don't have to hit enter after every sentence. Your post will look better and be easier to read if you make paragraphs.
3. Underused apostrophes - contractions like "wasn't" should contain an apostrophe.
4. Begging for hand-holding. Do your own research, don't expect others to link you to what you should read. Use the Search tool if you are so deeply opposed to reading thoroughly.

Original Post:

Hello.. first time poster here, but long time reader.

I've tried to do some searching, but I come up with threads that are 50+ pages long (such as this one).

In case you need it, my toon's armory in question is here

I have the T7 4 piece bonus, and i've been reading threads all over trying to find the ideal rotation. one that doesnt invoke overlapping cooldowns, and one that keeps my DPS as high as possible.

A few paladins i have spoke with, mention prioritizing crusader strike over judgement to begin with.

CS > Judge > Consec > DS

The burst in abilities seems nice, but i still run into problems with judgement coming off cooldown before CS.

I also tried:

Judge > Consec > CS > DS

This seems to be the way to keep things off clashing cooldowns, but im not sure if it's ideal for DPS.

I would very much appreciate any help. I've done hours of testing, and its driving me crazy that I cannot come up with an ideal startup to FCFS to keep things off clashing cooldowns, keeping consecration down >80% of the time, and keeping my DPS as high as possible.

Feel free to link me anything that has been previously posted, i would be more then happy to read it, as well as any suggestion that experienced retribution paladins have.
