have you considered only spending 2ap on it and accepting the increased SP cost / cooldwon?
That 4ap seems like it could be quite useful elsewhere.
I have not, this is a good idea, but 4 AP will make little difference spent elsewhere.

Since with bf you need to spend points lose either criti rage or berserker capstone, drop rage for heals and uhm.
I lose none of these. I un-rage for a total of about 15 seconds per quest.

No, because drop rage/reconstruct/rerage is zero dps for 3 seconds.
Dead toons produce no DPS.

You're not exceeding paladin level DPS,
Wrong thread. I do have a BF Paladin 2hf also and there is not much difference in DPS.

Meanwhile, my barb doesn't lose any DPS jump-casting Consecration between mob packs.)
So I can't un-rage, heal,rage between mobs too?

just twist Consecration
You can't do that, you would loose DPS. You MUST twist only DPS or you are not max DPS.

I suppose "Communion of Scribing + Bladeforged=The ultimate in self healing melee." is debatable if you are a paladin
It is not debatable. Paladin BF is easier to self heal. I have one. Why do people climb Everest? Because it is hard? Then why do the go up the easy side? If this were true, then there should be nothing but BF paladins on every server.

Skimping on DPS so that you can focus on an inconvenient and expensive burst heal seems quite silly. It works if you insist on being WF barb for some reason, but it's clearly not optimal.
I do not skimp on DPS. Look at my enhancements. Tell me what hidden gems you get to take with the extra 10 AP that you have to play with?
Inconvenient? You have never played this build so how can you even say this? It is very convenient and easy for me. With all the crap that DDO builds into the game you call 100% reliable, cheap and self sufficient healing Inconvenient? Not optimal? You have never, ever, been able to clearly state how the DPS of this build is less optimal vs. your MAX DPS build. We are talking about 10 AP here. Remember, dead toons deal no damage. Your build lives in a thin sliver of life and it cannot survive in difficult or EE quests outside the comfort zone.
I need to figure out how to post a Screen Shot of my 4 page enhancement tree for you to see.
