Ok, I waited several days to post this, now I am certain.
At first, I considered the possiblitly that I didn't get tp because the mobs died at the end of a revive and I thought maybe the lag was affecting things. This was not the case.
Basically, sometimes in reive I notice that I don't get tp from blocking mobs on Pld with Ochain and phalanx up. I usually take zero damage, and sometimes if I take zero damage, I won't get any tp back from blocking. I'n using creed gauntlets +2.
What will happen is I'll super tank the adds, either in a group for colonization reive or solo a liar reive. Solo is were I verified the condition.
As a Pld, supertanking, you notice the tp gain. I can almost self skill chain in a lair reive solo in my tanking set, thats how much tp a PLD gets from supertanking (in dyna I do self skill chain on pld/dnc). The point being, it's obvious when your not getting tp from mobs if you block and take zero damage. It's not something you'd miss.
I just soloed a lair reive in Yahse, had bees and mantis tping on me while I tp'd on the nest, finished around 6:40am today, my time (EST). About 1/3 of the way thru the nest's health, I stopped recieving tp from blocking the adds because I recieved zero damage the whole time. Now I was taking zero damage before, and for the most part of the fight. I don't know what causes it, I just know it's happened on many occasions, and now I'm certain it's not my imagination.
After I stopped recieving tp from the adds that were hitting me, eventually phalanx wore and I took some damage. As soon as phalanx wore and I recieved damage, my tp returned to normal, I started recieving tp from blocking, and I didn't have another problem for the rest of the fight. I finished/cleared it.
