The enmity system is the linchpin of any successful way to "tank" in modern FFXI play. Until it's fixed, slapping together all that on anyone isn't going to give us a tank. It'll just give us someone who hits the cap sooner and watches their work vanish in a hail of DD.

Read the thread right near this one that I started. I like the suggestions in this thread but they're mostly PLD-centric. I suggested fixes to PLD in the other thread by adjusting the numeric values for specific actions and changing some mechanics.
