Hate reset and you, why the devs are lazy

Would be nice if you would share the NMs you're thinking of. No idea why you think it needs to be secret.

If you're thinking of NMs that get a complete alliance-wide enmity reset move, then they are even easier. One VE move (eg. Provoke for Nin, Flash for Pld) and they have hate again.

If there are mobs that have AoE hate reset that is a fixed AoE range and not alliance wide, then it's still pretty simple to counter for good players.

1) Everyone will be watching their own hate to make sure it's not getting too high. A 2nd tank will be standing with backlines, but generating CE at a rate where he's 2nd on the hate list. Thus when the mob does his enmity-reset move on the first tank, he goes for the 2nd. Then the first one slowly builds up to try and be 2nd on the list again. Hard for some I guess, but good groups dont have trouble with this.

Yeah, it would be nice if you specified what NMs you're talking about. I haven't fought/tanked any NMs with hate reset moves that couldn't be handled in some way or another. This includes NMs that spams such moves.

On a side note, I actually found dealing with various types of hate reset a nice way to sync myself with whatever group I go with. Very nice to know the tendencies of my teammates, especially if I plan to play with them for a while.
