    No what I meant is Enmity Dose is what makes BLM a better single nuker than SCH currently. BLM does 10k damage and grabs hate then does Enmity Dose so they can do another 10k. SCH does say 15k(with lower enmity generated effect on) and PLD uses Intercession on the SCH and the SCH can do another 15k beating the BLM's damage. Essentially this JA makes Enmity Dose pointless with a PLD in the group.

Maybe it could change to taking half of your current MP instead to form the shield and a 1:1 ratio (so if you have 50% MP left, it takes 25% which creates a 25% damage mitigation shield).
    Ah I see what you meant now, though your reason for wanting it is flawed IMO, if I'm tanking there is usually a RDM who will land Slow2 giving me plenty of time to cure myself. Even if the mob is immune to Slow it usually has an attack pattern that still allows for curing. Also not curing means you're bleeding hate without recouping it even at a lower rate its still being bled without recouping it besides melee swings.

    Well it would be more there just in case or situational. I mean, the BLM isn't the only 1 capable of pulling crazy hate.

    Then they could just make it so with the shield up, Enmity doesn't decrease. I'm aware of possible timing and all, but I've been in enough situations where I get screwed by starting a cast and then nailed with a stun TP move or just a TP move that interrupts. Also, if we're taking reduced damage, we shouldn't be needing much in the way of cures from others.
